Nope. Never gonna buy one, may as well name it "Jeep Wagoneer POS" far as I'm concerned.

Reliability of Jeep has plummeted down to the lowest 10% of all vehicles. Was looking to replace my 2013 Grand Cherokee w/140,000 miles on it with a new(er) Grand Cherokee, 2020 or newer and saw that the reliability plummeted starting in 2020.

Ended up going with a 2022 Toyota Highlander XLE instead. Drives better, rides better, accelerates better, exponentially better reliability. My first Toyota. My 2013 Grand Cherokee is going to a new home, and someone who needs it. Not worth much on resale despite being in top shape so giving it away.

A good friend owns three Jeeps. At any given time, one of them is functional. Her problems are mainly engine issues.

Reminds me of, many years ago, a neighbor who had three or four MG Midgets. Same issue ... In his case, the problem was The Prince of Darkness.

Not sure why your 13 JGC isn't worth much on resale. Mine, an Overland, is in great shape (many, MANY shop visits over the years), and the dealer continuously sends me offers to buy it back. Not interested as I enjoy not having a car payment. ~96k miles and it's just starting to have issues with burning oil. Good thing I got an extended lifetime warranty with it as it's already come in handy several times.

I almost bought a Toyota 4-Runner when I decided on the Jeep. Wasn't very impressed by the Highlander at the time, but I'm sure they've improved it significantly since 2012-13.
