I remember my co worker got into a wreck and needed a new car he was telling everyone he wanted a jeep. Everybody told him not to get one because they aren't reliable. He actually listened and got a Honda CRV instead.
I'm only one Jeep owner, but I have to say my 2017 Jeep Cherokee with the 3.2 V6 engine and 9-speed transmission just turned 120,000 miles and the only time its ever been to the dealer, or any other shop for that matter, was to get an update on the car's main computer. Not a single problem at all, no matter how minor it was. I've made over 20 trips from SW Colorado to Phoenix in 7 years, and I get 31 mpg north from Phx to Colorado, and 32 mpg back down to Phoenix. (more down hills southbound) vs an EPA Hwy estimate of 25 mpg. I'm equal to their biggest fan. A sister had a 2015 Wrangler Rubicon, and now a 2019 Rubicon, and the same thing, neither has ever been to a dealer for any reason.
right , I keep hearing that jeeps are bad after buying a 2020 jeep grand Cherokee in February of this year , it had 40k miles when I got it now it’s almost at 70k I do a lot of driving ik but it’s fine just the tension pulley needed to be replaced at 60k miles
I have a 2017 Jeep Cherokee (mid sized) with V6 engine, and it currently has over 121,000 miles in over 7-1/2 years of service. In that time it has been to the dealer only once, for an update on the car's computer. It has not been to any other auto service facility of any kind, other than to get a normal tire replacement (40,000 mile intervals +/-). A-n-n-n-d, it gets 32-33 mpg on the highway, thanks to the 50% overdrive in 9th gear.
@@Mariiii99660k is not good to need to replace something like that. Most of the Japanese cars can go at least 200k miles without needing anything like that. When it reaches over 100k miles that’s when jeeps show their money pit
Wondering if those 80 payments are more or less than the monthly payment on the single wide.. wouldn't you rather find a house built on a foundation and drive something 3/4's less the value of that overpriced junk behemoth? That thing most likely costs more than the trailer by about $25k at least.
You've got to be kidding! 44 miles! That's not only crazy that's INSANE! The dealer needs to take responsibility for this and not charge the customer a dime. Great job Dustin.
It's a new vehicle. It has plenty of warranty on it. Tow and repair won't cost the owner a dime. The Wagoneer has so many problems it's not even funny!! For almost $100K you wouldn't expect a turd in a punchbowl!!

I lost a transmission in a brand new Wrangler on the way home from the dealership. 18 miles, fortunately the dealership was great and took it back. Never again!
Its funny, the vehicles Stellantis makes in Europe such as Citroën, Peugeot and Opel are not bad cars. My parents had a Citroën once and it was a good reliable car!
So many problems with new vehicles and it is most manufacturers. They (mfg's) made money like crazy for the last 3-4 years, and are now turning out garbage, this is crazy and so glad my older vehicles are still going strong.
they want a vehicle to last 50k I thought for repeat customers, but 44 miles that is insane where is the quality insurance , we got to blame them and the government for that, especially nowadays, it just about sales and profit but not value..... this car is a lemon, hope he gets a new vehicle or his money back......
I work at a jeep dealer. The amount of wagoneers that sit on the lot is embarrassing. Every single one of them are constantly dying and always need the battery’s charged. The amount that come in for service too is scary. Most common being electrical problems, which also leads to the batteries dying all the time too. This is nothing I wouldn’t expect

Rented a 24' this June in Vegas with 3k miles. We put some miles on it, going through the desert and to LA. Around 2500. Long story short, trans went out. Too bad cause I def did like it. But I'll stick with my 16 4runner here with 120k miles on it lol.

Dustin I'm not a wrecker driver or anything like that but one suggestion for you - always roll the window down at least 1/2 way before closing the drivers door and going outside when the keys are in the ignition. On a Lotta these newer cars the doors want to lock automatically and then you have another headache. I always roll my windows down before getting out
The new vehicles with push button start have a "physical" key in the FOB. If the FOB is left in the car, the car will not lock. That's the way MY '20 Blazer is set up. BTW, NOT all GM products have problems. I bought my vehicle 2yrs ago with 53k miles and have had ONE problem so far......both FOBS needed a new battery after one year! Yup, ALL GM products are JUNK! LOL
@@TheOzthewizit’s better to assume that they are than take a chance that the buyer gets lucky like you did. Now if we’re talking late 90s to early 2000s then yeah, a lot of their vehicles were bullet proof. But anything within the last 15 years? Wouldn’t chance it.

One of the batteries power all the screens in them I'm guessing but people need to stop buying these pieces of garbage, just get a navigator since you're paying that much for a glorified grand cherokee
You're always so considerate with people that are clearly stressed that what should be their pride and joy has failed them after rolling off the lot. It's hard not to feel terrible for them.
As a Dodge tech, these days it’s pretty normal for some of these brand new vehicles to have issues, sometimes even before they are sold to customers. During a few recent pre delivery inspections I have had the transmission cooler lines blow off of a 1500, I had a heater hose come off on a Durango, and another Durango with an exhaust leak.
This is why I decided to keep my 2018 Sequoia! At 65k miles not a single issue. Just new set of tires, and oil changes. Soon new brakes. I can’t be all stressed out about new cars and their tech crap that breaks. Even the new Toyotas are failing. It sucks. I’ll be driving mine until it completely dies!
65K miles...thats not even broken in yet for a Toyota. When it gets to 150K miles then its considered broken in.

All it takes is maybe 2 models, 2 or 3 straight years of similar issues and people will lose the respect toyota has gained over the years.

That's just Stellantis way of doing things, those are some of the most unreliable vehicles in the industry, all that was left was the dodges and the RAM's with their HEMI V8 which were fairly reliable honestly, now it's all "hurricane" in line six cylinder engines, and I got no idea how these will hold up, but we can all agree that we do not expect them to be reliable at all.
My 23 Tacoma had a couple issues fixed under warranty but never left me stranded. Just passed 20k miles. Cab mount bushing wasn't installed right and caused a squeaking noise and the transfer case output shaft seal had a tiny leak.
Just changed the rear breaks for the first time this year on my 2011 KIA Sportage. 113,000 miles on my Sportage, and it's still in good shape.

@@michelep9477 I beyond agree, I mean this in all honesty, if I was a millionaire I would have nothing but low mileage 2000's and some 90's cars, I mean look at mercedes, the SLS and SLR are their most desired, and they are the same era, not even the amg gt is as desired. I have a 2007 bmw x3 and a 2011 mercedes sl550, and my sl is based of a 2000's design despite it being an '11, new cars are alien feeling too.
I lost a transmission in a brand new Wrangler on the way home from the dealership. 18 miles, fortunately the dealership was great and took it back. Never again!
Omg 😱
I got my 1998 tacoma, never has had a problem, has been a great tool countless times, never will break down anywhere…
Being a Stellantis product I'm surprised only that it made it 44 miles.
😂🤣😂🤣😂 bravo 👍🏻. From italy 🇮🇹👋👋👋
Its funny, the vehicles Stellantis makes in Europe such as Citroën, Peugeot and Opel are not bad cars. My parents had a Citroën once and it was a good reliable car!
So many problems with new vehicles and it is most manufacturers. They (mfg's) made money like crazy for the last 3-4 years, and are now turning out garbage, this is crazy and so glad my older vehicles are still going strong.
they want a vehicle to last 50k I thought for repeat customers, but 44 miles that is insane where is the quality insurance , we got to blame them and the government for that, especially nowadays, it just about sales and profit but not value..... this car is a lemon, hope he gets a new vehicle or his money back......
Man these newer vehicles are built like trash. They look good but too many electronics. That seatbelt trick works great, I use it all the time.
Older cars are way better built and look better also
Yep their junkmobiles.
@AdonaiNate yeah it’s a Honda 😂 I had a 2003 Honda Odyssey with over 300K miles and ran great.
@@UncleTony2 I love older vehicles. Less headaches
@@TowMan127 same I have a 2007 Toyota Camry it’s great
I work at a jeep dealer. The amount of wagoneers that sit on the lot is embarrassing. Every single one of them are constantly dying and always need the battery’s charged. The amount that come in for service too is scary. Most common being electrical problems, which also leads to the batteries dying all the time too. This is nothing I wouldn’t expect
You have a good job security and you're in a good place until they file bancruptcy.
thanks for your honesty! how can you sell these things though?!
@@joesmith9216 Two wrongs make a right in Murica.
Are the dodge chargers still built good with no problems?
I was a sales manager for a CDJR dealership when the Wagoneer came out. There were SEVERAL in the service department within a month of launching.
$100,000+ SUV and it breaks down on its maiden voyage home. Out freaking standing.......
Not always 100,000. That one is closer to like 70K plus rebates so out the door he was prob in the 60s.
@@disneyfan9099Yeah these things surprising don’t sell a ton yet I see them everywhere for some reason 🤔
@@disneyfan9099 Even at $60k I'd be pissed it broke down. Thank goodness for warranties though Jeep are the only ones I know that still have a limited 100k warranty. Even Hyundai\Kia is unlimited.
That's why I still drive my 2005 acura TL with 223k miles on it.
Sure
@@iuyozxright . im sure if you made enough money you would at LEAST want a 2016 with 100k or less and if you had a few hundred thousand you would want a 2024 with 0 miles
2007 Toyota Corolla CE with 260 000 miles.
My fucking 2006 ford f250 has 400k miles 😂 there’s no way a modern car can get that much miles older cars are way better
@@UncleTony2 nobody cares
A burning smell, ever messages, and won’t shift into drive. Yep! That’s a Jeep all right.
I think you mean error messages.
2011 mercedes c300, 195000 and runs and drives like a dream. Also 2007 camry, 185000 and runs and drives like a dream. These new vehicles are no match. 1000 dollar monthly payment to show something off that breaks down every other day... im good.
His Jeep is more expensive than his trailer home!😮😊
Dustin should take a grief counselor with him on occasions like this.
😅😅
Now that’s a lemon if I’ve seen one.
Wow. And that’s why I’m keeping my 2004 F150 truck with over 280,000 original miles with the original power train. Especially that it’s paid off as long as I keep it maintained
I got an 08...140k miles, runs like a top! Lots of oil changes makes the 5.4 triton a good motor. It likes Mobil1.
Rented a 24' this June in Vegas with 3k miles. We put some miles on it, going through the desert and to LA. Around 2500. Long story short, trans went out. Too bad cause I def did like it. But I'll stick with my 16 4runner here with 120k miles on it lol.
If you have good car thats paid off just take 30% of what the payments were and make monthly deposits into an account for repairs or a down payment on a future purchase.
This gives new meaning to the term "ready for towing".
😂
😂
Another Stellantis/Jeep product broke 😹😹
You are right thinking that being a new car will stop the problems with old cars and not old cars are way better they don't do cars better than before
That's impressive, it went 40 miles more did I thought it would without breaking down.
🤣😂🤣
People are insane, his car is worth more than his house
Great balance, I've never understood why people need a house that costs a million dollars and property taxes beyond belief. Unless u flipping
Well under your dear leader Biden no one can afford either
@@jrag1000Because homes don’t lose value. They create generational wealth for your future generations. A car (unless a collectible) won’t do that. You’re welcome, hope this helped!
Dustin I'm not a wrecker driver or anything like that but one suggestion for you - always roll the window down at least 1/2 way before closing the drivers door and going outside when the keys are in the ignition. On a Lotta these newer cars the doors want to lock automatically and then you have another headache. I always roll my windows down before getting out
The key fob was in my pocket.
The new vehicles with push button start have a "physical" key in the FOB. If the FOB is left in the car, the car will not lock. That's the way MY '20 Blazer is set up. BTW, NOT all GM products have problems. I bought my vehicle 2yrs ago with 53k miles and have had ONE problem so far......both FOBS needed a new battery after one year! Yup, ALL GM products are JUNK! LOL
@@TheOzthewizit’s better to assume that they are than take a chance that the buyer gets lucky like you did. Now if we’re talking late 90s to early 2000s then yeah, a lot of their vehicles were bullet proof. But anything within the last 15 years? Wouldn’t chance it.
Scotty Kilmer is gonna love this Video..
Stellantis not so much 😂
Нађе ли Доларе тебраа ? 😂
Kilmer is an idiot
Ive had the wrecker jump start 10 times and tow 2 times on my 22 grand wagoneer.
My last stellantis vehicle.
This is one of the trucks we looked at for buying a family vehicle. So glad we did not. Went with the Lexus LX. I call it the beast and so happy.
As Scotty Kilmer says, "it will make a beautiful lawn ornament"
Actually, you could park it in your backyard and make it into a playground for the kids to play on.
Apparently the Dodge group hasn’t improved much in higher standard since Fiat has taken over the brand .Jeep and Chrysler have still reliability problems !Fiat is not the most reliable brand either in Europe .
They shoved me this monster with 12K miles for free when I rented a car at the Miami airport and only paid for a Corolla, now I see why they did that.
stellantis only looks at the design, and the design is great. Quality is done after lunch, and in france is that after a bottle of wine.
I ALWAYS check ALL the fluid levels before departing the dealership! They always give me hell for requesting that this is done prior to taking delivery because they claim that it has already been done! But, it only takes 15 minutes for the service department to re-verify the levels! My brother purchased a new 2020 Honda Accord that was missing 1.5 quarts of oil and he didn’t notice it until I drove it (a month later) and commented on the (unusually raspy) sound at startup!
Original owner Raven Black 2002 Honda Accord EX fully loaded 290,460 miles original V6 motor and trans, service religously, synthetic oils, garaged ,1 repaint in 2018, highway cruiser, best car ever!!
How much for the repaint? I want to repaint my 14 Accord coupe but cant afford 9k paint jobs.
@@JohnS-il1dr Got a similar sized car (Avalon) painted and real good deal $1200 for 4 coats of paint and 4 coats of clear. Just dont get single stage paint it wont last. Get 2 stage high quality.
I got it cheap because I found a guy with his own booth to do it and he did it during the winter and winter time is slow for painting so he was running a special. Car came out looking brand new, he even redid the headlights. Find a loal person wherever you are. I had to leave my car for 2 weeks.
Hondas are great !!! especially back in VTEC era or even the 1.4
IF I WAS YOU I WOULD ONLY STICK TO CARS MADE IN LATE 2000 OR LATER FOR SAFETY

friend bought one of these and it died at 21 miles. apparently they have 2 batteries in them and if one dies it won't let the vehicle run, even if the other battery is fine. It had to be towed off the side of the interstate in the rain...
Ignorant design. I would never want such a liability like that. If they were out of town then the situation would be worse lol
One of the batteries power all the screens in them I'm guessing but people need to stop buying these pieces of garbage, just get a navigator since you're paying that much for a glorified grand cherokee
Had a brand new 300 in 2015 less than 20 miles. Burning smell is normal for a few miles.. They were never driven lol
You're always so considerate with people that are clearly stressed that what should be their pride and joy has failed them after rolling off the lot. It's hard not to feel terrible for them.
As a Dodge tech, these days it’s pretty normal for some of these brand new vehicles to have issues, sometimes even before they are sold to customers. During a few recent pre delivery inspections I have had the transmission cooler lines blow off of a 1500, I had a heater hose come off on a Durango, and another Durango with an exhaust leak.
Are the new chargers reliable?
@ we haven’t received any yet, ev ones are supposed to arrive soon and the gas powered ones later next year.
New vehicles are complete junk. Holding onto my 2012 Silverado as long as I can.

This is why I decided to keep my 2018 Sequoia! At 65k miles not a single issue. Just new set of tires, and oil changes. Soon new brakes. I can’t be all stressed out about new cars and their tech crap that breaks. Even the new Toyotas are failing. It sucks. I’ll be driving mine until it completely dies!
65K miles...thats not even broken in yet for a Toyota. When it gets to 150K miles then its considered broken in.
Sold my Avalon at 287K miles...still ran smooth and only replaced parts due to age/wear. Never left me stranded or failed start. I also heard the new Toyotas are junk. Particularly teh Tacoma/Tundra.
@@jensz9360I work for Toyota and the new Toyotas with the turbos are turds, just had to change both port and direct injectors on a 24 gr corolla with 14,000 miles on it
@@WildWhiteFang Yeah, I believe you 100%. I bet you have seen many com ein with issues and will likely see many more get dragged in there for warranty work.
Toyota needs to stop playing these stupid EV (save the planet ) games and stick with reliability before their reputation becomes tarnished. All it takes is maybe 2 models, 2 or 3 straight years of similar issues and people will lose the respect toyota has gained over the years.
@@WildWhiteFangDon’t worry, his Sequoia has the famous 5.7L 3UR-FE V8.

Guy buys a $100k plus wagoneer, lives in a trailer park. 😂😂
Those are rental cabins. He’s likely was probably a construction working how here working from out of town.
That’s how he can afford those $1200 a month payments.

It’s wild to think that the Jeep potentially cost more than the home. 🤯

This is why I cling to my 2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ with the 4.0 straight six. Besides a few electrical issues it has never let me down. I’ve driven it with lifter tick and low oil pressure over 3000 miles with zero issues. One time I held it off the rev limiter for like 10 minutes straight and it still runs like a champ😂.

@@Towtruck_Dustinglad to here it man!👍🏻
It amazes me how people will buy a vehicle that’s probably worth what his house is worth. I bet the payments are similar.
That's just Stellantis way of doing things, those are some of the most unreliable vehicles in the industry, all that was left was the dodges and the RAM's with their HEMI V8 which were fairly reliable honestly, now it's all "hurricane" in line six cylinder engines, and I got no idea how these will hold up, but we can all agree that we do not expect them to be reliable at all.

My 23 Tacoma had a couple issues fixed under warranty but never left me stranded. Just passed 20k miles. Cab mount bushing wasn't installed right and caused a squeaking noise and the transfer case output shaft seal had a tiny leak.
I'm betting the payments on that Jeep are higher than the mortgage on the trailer they live in.
That trailers about $129 a month.

Great content Dustin. Enjoyed! Looking a professional with the new shirts
Just changed the rear breaks for the first time this year on my 2011 KIA Sportage. 113,000 miles on my Sportage, and it's still in good shape. If there's nothing wrong with your vehicle, more people should keep their cars longer. It seems like cars these days, in the last 4 years, have had more problems than the last 2 decades
It's truer today than ever... I worked for a mechanic literally 40years ago. He used to sell used cars to as many mechanics do. He used to say "there's an ass for every seat!!"
