@iTsKoNvIcT Okay. I'm back after being becoming more responsible. And after my best friends 2006 Tacoma was recalled, again, for having the chasis rust out after 5 years of ownership. And my uncle paying over $5,000 to have his 2009 Volvo's brakes and transmission redone. Total amount spent to keep my 2004 Jeep running amazing? $234 bucks. 120,000 miles. Gee, did a Jeep just show up not only a Volvo, but a Toyota too?
@iTsKoNvIcT My first car was a Volvo. Had it given to me for my 16th birthday. Impressed me to death. Died completely at 215,000 miles. Quit impressing me. I'll say that a Volvo is better than a Japanese car, but not better than an American car. Definitely not better than a Chrysler. Now before anyone tries to kill me for that statement, think back to all the Chrysler cars that were really trouble. They all had one thing in common. They came from the Chrysler partnership with Mitsubishi. Hmm...
@camry01 Rust on Wranglers is a common problem. I'll admit. it usually helps if people wash their Jeeps after taking them off-road and tearing them up. And we're not talking cars with 186,411 miles, we're talking brand new Toyota cars, trucks, suvs, minivans, and even 4 year old Toyotas. There is no excuse for that. And that "wobble" issue that you are referring to is a front end ball joint issue. It WAS recalled. My KJ had that issue. Got it fixed at the dealer. I was never in any danger.
@ipodlvr18 when have you seen a toyota do the same,,,and sorry but if you know cars (ill assume you do)any car with that has never had there throttle cleaned after 300 000km can stick open,and yes ive seen this many time being a mechanic,no not on a jeep all ive really seen on those yj,s are rust when there 4 years old,and if you google it you will find a wobbel issue on jeeps that Chysler refuses to recall why?cauise they cant fix it,,at least toyota is fixing it,,,
@camry01 One last thing. 400,000 km equals roughly 248,548 miles. When you see a Toyota reach 875,543 miles like my 1987 Dodge Ram 150, with no engine, transmission, frame, axle, or brake failures, or my old 1993 Dodge Grand Caravan, with 345,000 miles with just regular maintenance, give me a holler. I would then love to entertain that Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi, Scion, Lexus, Acura, Mazda, Subaru and Suzuki are better than American cars. but not until that point in time.
what a shame they used to be great, whoever killed 80s toyota engineers need to be brought to justice
