2012 JKR 115k miles. So far, Ive had the left bank camshafts and lifters replaced, thermostat, left cylinder head under warranty (304 error cylinder misfire). IT still taps. I got a stethoscope so I could listen to each side and the left is definitely louder. I brought it to the dealer (where the lifters and camshafts are still under warranty from the last time they were replaced) and they said that amount of ticking was "normal" for that many miles. . .

The worst problem I faced so far were the AC condenser (recently changed) and tappets when i hit 62k miles. currently at 102,000 miles so far its pretty much in good shape!

Up to 156k on a 2012! So far nothing catastrophic and honestly not many repairs that weren't inflicted by yours truly

My 2012 was traded it with 107,000 miles and still ran like new. Only thing replaced was a starter. My 2014 broke an exhaust spring at 58,000 miles which resulted in the cams and phasers being replaced.
