I've never owned one, but I thought they were more reliable in the 1980s and '90s. Was I mistaken?
Up to being bought by Chrysler in 1984 they were pretty solid. Because they were so basic. Not much to break, since they were boxes with wheels and that's it. I had a 1990 YJ Wrangler and it was the biggest pile of shit I could imagine being assembled on purpose.
In the 80's and 90's? That was peak junk car era. You'd be lucky to have a car not rust out or need major repairs well before 100k miles.
These fays, IF something breaks, it is extremely expensive to fix, but you can certainly expect to go a lot longer without a major problem.
Damn it, I hate how true this statement is.
