Garage
In about a year...

2 transfer cases (one exploded and took out transmission, brake lines, wiring to back, fuel lines...
Heater controls never worked (couldn’t get defrost)
Transmission was taken out by exploding transfer case.
2 torque converters in new MOPAR transmission.
Death wobble
Steering box broke on the highway
Wheel bearings (one let go on the highway and was changed out in a parking lot)
They are drive by wire... the throttle position sensors are notoriously bad and mine went
Rad got hole in it from rubbing on foam.

I have had about 75 vehicles and this one was the worst. Complete POS.

Best days in my life include the days when my kids were born, and the day that thing drove away...

When it wasn’t broken, it was great. The trouble in that in my ~ 2.5 years of ownership, it was broken more than when it was not. It sat broken for a full year when the transfer case let go.
