Although they advertise these vehicles as high tech 'Luxury Off-Roaders' the truth stops at "Horse Pucky". Real Jeeps have steel frames from front to rear so the pretty painted part we bought is separate from the realities of the ground your transversing. What we have is a 'Uni-body' construct where what we sit in and the frame are now one in the same due to creative 'tac welding' of flimsy steel sheet stock. This construct works well for cars heading to work, but not Jeeps adventuring. When your left front tire goes low (hole) while your right rear tire is high all of that sudden 'Twist/Torque' is transferred across the entire vehicle with 'Uni-body'. I still haven't lost my 'sunroof', but the Hatchback window twice, not off-road, but in the driveway during cold, -0 weather. A mystery, "Yes", but what stuck out was the door itself kept changing positions. It was racked so far to the left at one time that it broke the rear brake light cover upon shutting it. I rest my case.
