Well, it is reliable if you maintain it.

Seriously, there many threads on here complaining about one issue or another.

Also threads where many folks said "no issues".

Your question is overly broad. What are your concerns?

For example I've heard people complain that the 2020 Jeep Gladiator is extremely difficult to steer when compared to Jeep models of the previous years.

There is the issue with loose steering, that affects some small percentage of Gladiators and JL Wranglers. No one knows what the percentage is, but for a few owners it has been an important issue.

Jeep has acknowledged the issue and has issued a Technical Service Bulletin to dealerships instructing them how to fix it.

That is not a reliability issue, however, more like a design/assembly issue that has now been fixed.
