The brand JEEP is a synonym for off-road vehicles and is seen as a symbol of the Allied victory in Europe in the Second World War. The history of the cult brand started when the American Department of Defense ordered the development of a light-weight off-road vehicle. The company Willys-Overland best met the specifications and marketed these off-road vehicles as private vehicles after the end of the Word War II. Today, JEEP belongs to FIAT and is one of the strongest growing car brands in Europe, thanks to the steadily increasing demand for SUVs. In 2018, sales increased by more than 50 percent.
Modern JEEPs with small flaws
The success of the traditional brand is not just down to buyers wanting a classic off-roader. The Italian influence and the modern appearance of the Cherokee KL or the Renegade, released in 2014, also contribute to their increased popularity. The Cherokee was one of the forefathers of the modern SUV and is classified as very reliable. However, in the older models before 1999 it was not unusual to have torn timing belts at high speeds, resulting in a failure of the water pump.
Classic problem areas of JEEP models
With the Grand Cherokee, it’s the models with diesel engines in particular that cause trouble. The most common weaknesses are defective starters, turbochargers, discharged car batteries, worn sealing rings at the transmission and engine, and leaky oil pans. In the Wrangler, the turbo hoses, clogged particle filters, and ABS sensors are prone to problems. Owners of the Compass, released in 2007, report problems with the electronics and transmission as well as defective transverse links and wishbone bushes.
