I will NEVER buy another crysler/jeep/dodge product.Ĭ ® is an online automotive complaint resource that uses graphs to show automotive defect patterns, based on complaint data submitted by visitors to the site. I would sell this one but dealer only offered me $2500.00 for it >:/ over all Jeep is building jeeps to fail after so-many years/-miles- so you go and buy a new one- I can't tell you how many calls I got from the dealer wanting to sell me a new one. Why they used layered steel for this skid plate makes no sense except to generate revenue. The dealer wanted over $1000.00 for the job, I did it my-self. Unfortunately some of the bolts on the old skid [plate had snapped due to being seized.I had to drill and tap new holes because the nuts that hold theses bolts are inaccessible inside the frame members( another jeep screw up) This repair took 2 days. I had ordered a new skid plate on line for less then dealer cost- Nothing can be done but replace it. I noticed it after the service due to servicing my own radiator( which failed also). I had taken the jeep to a jeep dealer for power steering pump service( another piece of garbage crysler designed to fail!!!), The had the jeep on a lift, but never informed me of he condition of the gas tank skid plate. Jeep used solid steel on all the skid plates except the gas tank which is layered steel- which I feel is a GREAT design to catch and trap water. The gas tank skid plate had rusted from under the gas tank, it also SUPPORTS the gas tank.
