He is right most of our problems did not arise till we got in 2,000 mile range. But with all the problems I have or had, I still love my Jeep! I hope and pray that 2008 don't have as many problems neither so it can bring back the good name of the Wranglers. As saying goes a lot of times you have to know and love a wrangler to appreciate a wrangler. It is not your average vehicle and that is why so many of us here love them.

I've owned a Toyota, Nissan, Ford, Oldsmobile, Mercedes and Subaru. Out of the 6 manufacturers, 4 were brand new (3 of them factory ordered, not off the lot). I can safely say I will never buy a Nissan, Ford or a Mercedes Benz again. I never had any problems with Toyota, Subaru and Oldsmobile.

I am currently having a problem when slowing down and braking at 40 MPH turning off a highway exit. The ABS seem to engage on the front brakes. This is just started to happen, after hitting 2,000 mile. Hope this recall addresses problem.

The very reason I always would avoid their power windows and door locks on my Jeeps.

True, but how about us first time (or future) wrangler buyers? Some folks may have come from a different manufacturer with excellent reliability. It's definitely going to leave a bitter taste in their mouths if the first jeep they buy will have problems after a couple thousand miles.

You are right and I hate all the things going wrong with Jk's. A Jeep use to be made where you could throw anything at it and it could handle it with no problems and it would come back for more. Now I am not just not sure where Jeep is going.
I hear from my neighbors and friends all the time saying just file the lemon law "But what else is out there"????????? That would replace the Jeep. Now if we own a car then the choice would be endless to pick from. I am hoping that these glitches are going to clear up and maybe the 2008's will show this.

What’s the big deal? this is a first model year, I bought my 07 knowing well that issues were going to come up.
Even with all the minor problems I don’t think there’s another vehicle out there I would rather have.

last week sitting at a stop light the BAS warning light came on. The road was flat and about 4 miles later the light went off.
Ohh just great... gotta go back to the dealer.
If this keeps up - Lemon Law here i come! My parents filed lemon law about 17 years ago and won. It was on a Chrysler Labaron with the engine just shutting off (the car was less than 2 years old-bought new).
If i win the lemon law... good bye wrangler and say hello to umm... uhh...
hummer h2 sut??
