warranty got voided at 42,000 km because of a steel bumper that was deemed to be "heavily modified" according to one dealership. jeep was running like crap losing power on the highway to the point i had to come to a complete stop and accelerate again for it to catch up, then it would randomly stall out. this went on for a couple weeks then i just parked it as it was too much of a headache to deal with. about a month later i went to start it and it was running just fine, so i took it for a bit of a drive, shut it off and then went to restart it about 10 minutes later and it would crank and not start. so now its just a pile a scrap metal sitting in my driveway collecting dust that i am making ridiculous payments on and cant even use it.

Was driving down the road when my engine started ticking. The check engine light came on so I pulled over. The engine shut off and tried to crank back up but would not. The engine would turn over but never crank. Had it towed to a car repair shop where they said we had a rod knocking and needed a new engine because it had a busted piston. We get regular oil changes and only have 135,000 miles on the jeep. Seems a little early to have to replace the whole engine but we did. The repair shop also said there are metal shavings in the intake that also needed to be replaced.
