Absolutely the last jeep for me ! The chips from Taiwan , the engine and wiring harness from Mexico, the computer module probably from China, Borneo or the Philippines ! I also have a Toyata TRD Off Road , totally bullet proof !!!

Doing a bit of research you'd find the rate of lemons for Jeep is actually below the industry standard (though FCA is the worst of the 3 American mnfrs). Meanwhile, Toyota lemon rates are actually not that far off from Jeep. The only manufacturer which is really head and shoulders above the rest is Honda. Meanwhile the Koreans are terrible, and the Germans not much better. Subaru is surprisingly not great while Mazda is around average.

Unfortunately you are well beyond the lemon law if its a 2020. I came from a Tacoma and the transmission sucks so good luck in your future.

Your 4 posts and 3 threads over the last year bitching have been of high value and a great contribution to the community. The board here will collapse from the weight of you carrying it with such high quality content. Please reconsider not leaving.

You may wish to consider buying a GM vehicle, the steering should be fine on those..... Oh, wait............

I truly think threads like this are just shameless counter intelligence by other brands to skew google search results...
When you search "Jeep gladiator sucks" this isnt the first thread to come up...but it certainly doesnt exactly pain a pretty picture of a potential buyer.

Meanwhile JD Power actually gave the JT a good score on their reliability.

Gladiator Reliability
Is the Jeep Gladiator Reliable ?
The 2022 Gladiator has a predicted reliability score of 85 out of 100. A J.D. Power predicted reliability score of 91-100 is considered the Best, 81-90 is Great, 70-80 is Average, and 0-69 is Fair and considered below average.

Im not sure what vehicle the op plans on buying that has all its parts sourced from one location. Chips from Tw? ? “ tw makes most of the most advanced chips on the planet “ transmission from where??? Oh god no!!!
I’m gunna buy a Toyota cuz ALL of the parts are made in America assembled in America by American workers!! Oh-shit there not ??? Really??? Your sure ? Hmm scion it is then…
Meanwhile my jeep has also had issue but rather then be a bitch about it I just take it back and get it fixed. Don’t get me wrong I’d be mad too if I had the same problem several times. Like my ass not working or constant messages about battery charging… oh yea I member I had all those issues but I’m still here lol
