The Allroads are a known entity. Enough said.
Yes, anything that jeep makes is going to be worse than just about anything made by anyone else. They have an absolutely terrible reputation for a reason. They have by far the worst track record for trying new technology in their cars as well.

I've never had an issue with my allroad (or my LR 3's) air suspension, however I know they will. But I don't really care if they do, the airbags will be replaced if needed. The average Jeep owner is going to have a heart attack over a $600 air bar replacement, if that fixes it.

edit (I'm actually buying a cayenne turbo that has an air suspension as well, I love em' I guess)
