2018 Jeep Wrangler Review: Dependable Used SUV With An Outstanding Four-Wheel Drive System

Dec 6, 2022

The 2018 Jeep Wrangler lasts around 250,000 miles with only some electrical and water leak issues reported. At $23,275 to $37,700, it’s expensive, but really is the only option if you want an extreme off-roader with a factory warranty.

The Good

Off-road performance is second to none, the V6 engine offers good power and there’s more space in the four-door model compared to older years.

The Bad

The engines are less efficient than other SUVs, the cabin is noisy and there’s no advanced safety technology.

Is the 2018 Jeep Wrangler a Good Used SUV?

Overall Rating 7/10 – 2018 is a good year for the Wrangler, yet it still isn’t a great daily driver since it focuses heavily on off-road driving, giving it average overall score. Owner reviews praise the new electronics, high ground clearance, as well as the great four-wheel-drive system.
Interior, Comfort & Cargo 7/10 – Interior materials are improved from earlier years, the seats are comfortable, although cargo space is lower than other SUVs.
Reliability 7/10 – There are no major problems found on the 2018 Jeep Wrangler, however, it’s still not as reliable as some other SUVs in the same price range. Models from 2013–2021 are all decent choices.
Performance 7/10 – Performance is okay from either the V6 or the turbocharged 4-cylinder, but it’s not going to be winning many races.
Safety 6/10 – The 2018 Wrangler is not very safe, earning only 3 stars overall in government crash tests. There’s a standard rearview camera, while parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, along with rear cross traffic alert systems are all optional.
Gas Mileage 6/10 – Fuel economy is poor at 24 MPG, giving 516 miles of range from the 21.5 gallon tank. Gas costs are $40 higher than average, at $266 per month.
Value 8/10 – The Jeep Wrangler depreciates slower than other SUVs, making it a great value since you can own one without losing a lot of money.

Positive Owner Reviews

Great car and easy to personalize.

Includes a high quality backup camera and you can personalize it very easily to make it your own. I love being able to take the top off at any time and there is not as much road noise as I thought. I have the hard top and it looks really nice. Overall I love the car and will continue to buy them.

Sabrina B

Best jeep ever to drive in people's lives. Definitely recommend.

I absolutely love my jeep wrangler. I would never trade it for anything else. It rides so smooth and the ride is never boring no matter how far you go. I own a soft top and I completely recommend a soft top because you can take the top down whenever/ wherever you want.

Nick J

Top traveling vehicle of years.

The entirety of the vehicles body can be easily removed (doors, hardtop, etc.). Easy to add on additions (assortment of interior and exterior parts). Drive is great and versatile (can be driven in any condition and terrain). Does pretty decently on gas, although it is recommended to use 89 or higher octane.

David H

My favorite vehicle to drive

I have less than 9,000 miles on this Jeep and have been getting numerous MIL notifications over the past several months. First dealer said something came loose and tightened a connection under the seat. Problem remained, second dealer checked and updated transmission and something else, said that should take care of it so, we will see what happens. Other than that, it's the funnest vehicle I've ever driven.

Rain guards need put on it

I bought a 2018 Jeep Wrangler unlimited Sahara and I drove a few different types and this type of Jeep drove smoothly and I absolutely love it! The things that I have found wrong with it is the design of the doors because there is no rain guard on the doors and I have leather seats and when it rains the rain pours into the vehicle when opening the doors. I have contacted Chrysler headquarters and they have scheduled to have it fixed or put something on it to stop the rain but other than that all seems to be great.

Sara D

My dream car: the wrangler does everything I could need and more.

My jeep wrangler is my dream car and I have very little problems with it. It is an extremely fun car to drive as you can take off the top of the doors and can be driven on different terrain. It is also got a lot of space inside, as the driver I never feel crowded or tight and you get great visibility because of the boxy design. I get roughly 22 mpg on average which is definitely a step up from previous generation wranglers. Overall I love my jeep and wouldn't trade it in anytime soon.

Robert S

New easy off soft top. The new top on the Jeep Wrangler jl 2 door is nice.

I enjoy the features of satellite radio, remote start, the new push button start. Only problem I have the steering is a little lose compared to previous Jeeps I have owned before. The new easy off soft top is nice. No zippers. The new jl 2 door model was worth wait. Also the firecracker red color we love. I do not think you will go wrong with a Jeep Wrangler.

Skylar E

My jeep is yellow, lifted wheels, it looks like I am ready for the apocalypse.

It is definitely a safe car. Although it can break down sometimes and going about sharp turns can be a little difficult. But I highly recommend this car. It is been with me for 2 years and I absolutely love it. Gas can be a little expensive but it is worth every penny. Rides smooth on the highway and off roads.

Paint issues and cooling fan noise

When we purchased the wrangler new, we were excited about the quality of the paint. Two years old now, door hinges paint blistering with corrosion, rust bubbles around the hinges on the doors , when cooling fans go into hi speed ,they vibrate the dash and it sounds like they are not balanced, we paid 44,000 dollars for it, has 30,000 miles on it, took it to they dealer ,to file a warranty ,6 weeks later still no word. Now i"am worried about paint match. I was told by several body shops that there is no paint primer under any of the hinges, Whats the rest of the jeep going to look like in two more years. We like the jeep and was going to by a gladiator ,but for these reasons I will not. Warning if you are going to buy a jeep inspect those areas .

Jonas Y

Jeep wrangler heavy duty & maintenance.

Jeep wrangler is a very reliable vehicle in the winter, maneuvering through thick snow with ease, a good car for gas budgets but still does the heavy work. Durable enough when tire are well taken care of and maintained monthly together with steering. Constant oil check and steering is all wrangle needs to reach maximum satisfaction.

Brian Soerensen

Worst car

Seriously! I rented this car in Florida (May 2019) brand new and drove it for a week. It is the worst car I have ever sat in, even worse than a Nissan Qashqai. I was litterally exhausted after just a few hours on the highways constantly working the wheel to keep this wopling excuse of a wehicle centered in my lane. This car should not be on the roads. Unless high-ride 4wd is a must, I can't think of one reason for anyone to buy this gas guzzler.

Princess D

Don't buy a wrangler 4 door after jk

Soft top flipping off from day one, radio issue, Death wobble, acceleration delay and acts like is about to stall, Traction controller light on and not able to turn off, grill color fading, mats not staying together in the back, smoke coming from the grill

Mary Ann McCready

Electrical and Rust.... POS

Bought beautiful 2018 Jeep Rubicon brand new. I loved my jeep but now not so much. 2 years old and from 30 k mark it has been a living nightmare. First the start/stop goes off for no reason, the dash and control panel dims for no reason, the heated seat shuts off seconds after it's turned on, now its the park sense turn off for no reason, I have a message displaying the sway bar disconnect isn't available but the worst is all the paint around the hinges are bubbling. I spend the average of 4 hours at the jeep deal every time I go in for servicing. I didn't pay tens of thousands of dollars for this s**t.

Madison R

I do like the body and the ability to remove the doors and top.

I do not find this vehicle very comfortable. It has a death wobble, shakes at over 55 miles per hour, and it drinks the gas. It has a gas mileage of 14 miles per gallons. The technology sometimes does not work when you turn the vehicle on, but the backup camera has the highest quality of any vehicle I have owned.

Haley G

2018 white Sahara jeep wrangler-It's a jeep not a luxury vehicle.

It is great and reliable driving in the snow. It's really easy to drive and park. However, driving on freeways the jeep is really loud from the wind. I wish there was heated seats and steering wheel for the winter time. The inside on driver and passenger side is quite tight and small although I have 2 large dogs that fit perfectly in the back when the seats are down. I had a weird incident last winter that my steering wheel would lock up on me a handful of times while driving (pretty scary). It felt like I needed steering fluid but the mechanic couldn't really give me an answer on what it was. After I had gotten an oil change, it never locked up on me again. Very strange!

Jeep wrangler review: an off road vehicle.

I like the car for its shape and look. It is definitely an off road vehicle, so the drive is not as smooth as I would prefer. It also does not hug the road as well as I would like. Usually when it rains or snows, I have to drive in 4 wheel drive because it will slide all over the road. It also does not go around curves well. It is reliable for getting out of and through the snow. I haven't had a situation where I couldn't. It does what I expect on gas. It has a lot of space so it helped me move things well. It also helps when I have a lot of passengers. The truck stays neat in sitting areas because passengers can out their belongings in the trunk area. Tires changes are normal and as expected. I have had to change the oil often. The windshields cracks easily if rocks hit them on the freeway. The Bluetooth system is not that great, and the sound system is not the best.

What Do Critics Say About the Jeep Wrangler?

Consumer Reports says the 2018 Jeep Wrangler offers great improvements over the older models, with average owner satisfaction scores.
Edmunds rates the Wrangler at 3.3/5, praising the up-to-date technology, but doesn’t like the small cargo area.
Kelley Blue Book users give the Wrangler a 4.5/5, enjoying the excellent off-road capabilities, but owners don’t like the low fuel economy.

What Common Problems Does the 2018 Jeep Wrangler Have?

Common problems found on the 2018 Jeep Wrangler include failures to start, water leaking into the cabin, as well as some suspension issues. Overall, these problems are a bit worse than other SUVs, yet normal for an off-roader. Repair bills are also higher than other SUVs as they age.

Failure to start is the most widespread complaint from 2018 Jeep Wrangler owners at around 20,000 miles. The most common reason is an electrical issue such as a dead battery or worn-out alternator. If you have low voltage, then usually it’s a sign of a damaged EGR valve which costs $450 to replace.

Water leaking into the cabin also shows up on some Wrangler models in the first 10,000 miles. Many of the panels on the Jeep Wrangler are designed to be removed, which leads to them fitting loosely on the roof and doors. If these are not installed properly, water may leak into the cabin. Fixing the issues at a dealership usually costs under $100 since they may replace some seals if they were damaged while reinstalling the panels.

Suspension issues, commonly called the “death wobble” are relatively rare, yet still show up on some 2018 Wrangler models at around 30,000 miles. The front steering and suspension components come loose after hard off-roading adventures, leading to wobbling. Checking the parts and tightening them up costs around $250, while replacing any damaged parts can cost $500 to $1,800 depending on the source.

There are 11 recalls on the 2018 Jeep Wrangler, which is worse than other midsize SUVs from the same year. The most serious recall covers the steering shaft which can split, leading to a loss of control. Jeep will replace the parts on affected models. Many other recalls cover seat belts and latches, which are much easier to change out.

How Long Will the 2018 Jeep Wrangler Last?

A well-maintained 2018 Jeep Wrangler can last around 250,000 miles, which is about 100,000 miles less than the top-rated Toyota 4Runner. Regular annual maintenance costs are more expensive than other SUVs, according to data provided by Repair Pal, at $662 per year.

As a used Jeep Wrangler reaches 100,000 miles owners should be prepared to replace the A/C expansion valve for $400, fuel injectors costing $365, as well as the window switches which cost $180.

Alisha D

Currently my jeep is extremely reliable. My car has never broken down on me and runs smoothly. I could not ask for a better car.

Jillian B

The jeep wrangler is mostly reliable. It can tend to have some problems in the rain with slipping. Other than that I have had no problems.

Marta C

I wish the hard top wasn't as heavy. It drives rough, but understandable because it is a jeep. Otherwise, no problems.

Tiffany B

No, I have not had any issues with my jeep wrangler sport. It gets me where I am going and back home on a daily basis.

Brandy P

My wrangler has been very reliable. I drive it as my primary vehicle and have not had any issues with it.

Shelia A

It is very reliable. Since I have had the vehicle I haven't had any issues with it the jeep. Took it riding out in dirt roads and it did a great job.

Benjamin F

Yes, it is a very reliable vehicle. Only had a few minor problems and they were always covered by warranty. Always feel safe with the kiddos in the car!

Kimberly V

This jeep is extremely reliable; I have had no mechanical problems with it whatsoever. The tire air pressure system is a little sensitive during changes of weather however.

How Is the Technology?

Entertainment technology is good with a standard 5-inch touchscreen found on entry-level models. The Sahara has a 7-inch touchscreen, while there’s also an optional 8.4-inch Uconnect system.

Safety technology is worse than many other midsize SUVs offering a standard rearview camera. Optional upgrades include rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, as well as rear cross traffic alert.

Is the 2018 Jeep Wrangler a Good Value?

Yes, the 2018 Jeep Wrangler is a good value if you’re looking for an off-road capable SUV. The blue book fair purchase price ranges from $23,375 to $37,800, making it more expensive than a Honda Pilot or Subaru Outback. When new, the price range was $23,995 to $41,445. Depreciation is much better than average, only losing about 4% of its current value per year.

What are the Different Models of the Jeep Wrangler?

There are four main models of the Jeep Wrangler offered in 2018, from the base Sport all the way up to the capable Rubicon. The 2018 Wrangler also comes as either a regular two-door Wrangler or a four-door Unlimited model.

What Engines Come In the Jeep Wrangler?

The standard found in the 2018 Jeep Wrangler is a reasonably strong 3.6L V6 which makes 285 horsepower while getting up to 20 MPG. It comes with a standard six-speed manual transmission while an eight-speed automatic transmission is optional. Performance is good, taking 6.8 seconds to go from 0-60 MPH.
There’s a more efficient 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder which generates 270 horsepower at up to 24 MPG. This engine comes standard with the eight-speed automatic transmission.

What Colors Does the Jeep Wrangler Come In?

How Comfortable Is the Jeep Wrangler?

The 2081 Jeep Wrangler is not the most comfortable midsize SUV on the market with seating for up to five passengers. Seats are reasonably comfortable, yet they’re not as supportive as in other vehicles. It’s also offered in either a two or four-door configuration.

Passenger room is cramped in the rear seats of the two-door model, while the four-door version has enough legroom for taller adults.

How Much Storage Space Does the Jeep Wrangler Have?

There’s less cargo space than many competitors, offering only enough room for 2-3 suitcases behind the seat in the two-door model. The four-door Wrangler Unlimited model is more practical with enough space for 5-6 suitcases behind the seats, and around 12 with the seats folded flat.

What Are the Differences Between Years?

The fourth generation of the Jeep Wrangler, known as the JL was introduced in 2018, and is still being made as of 2022.

2015: Standard stereo system upgraded, tool kit includes tools needed to remove the doors.

2016: New exterior colors and special edition models added.

2017: Remote start, heated seats, and LED headlights all added as optional upgrades.

2018: Fully redesigned for the fourth generation with new engines, styling, and technology.

2019: Forward collision warning and adaptive cruise control systems added.

2020: New diesel V6 engine offered, Moab model discontinued.

2021: Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid and Rubicon 392 editions both introduced.

How Does the Jeep Wrangler Compare to the Competition?

The Jeep Wrangler is an SUV which is completely focused on off-road performance, which makes it skip some of the on-road comforts you expect from a modern SUV. It’s a great choice if you plan on hitting trails, yet may not be the best daily driver.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is another SUV offered by Jeep which is available in the same price range. Passenger space and technology are both better in the Jeep Grand Cherokee, while the Jeep Wrangler has a stronger 4WD system. We recommend the Jeep Grand Cherokee for most shoppers, unless you know you want the Wrangler.

The Toyota 4Runner is a competitor which costs around $4,000 more. Technology and reliability are both better in the Toyota 4Runner, while the Jeep Wrangler has more ground clearance for taller obstacles. We recommend the Toyota 4Runner since they last longer, and are nearly as good off road.

Izabella P on June 23, 2021

2018, 4 doors, tan, leather seats.

The 2018 jeep wrangler is an amazing vehicle. It has never has any problems, the performance is great, it is very reliable, however it is not the most comfortable when going on long trips. It has four doors and very spacious for the average size family.

Jessica B on June 9, 2021

Jeep wrangler 2018, leather seats w/ warmers. 4 wheel drive, never lets you down.

Most reliable jeep ever owned. A/c and heat works amazing. Leather seat with heat are the best in winter, does not have a/c for seats, wish it did. Back seats are a comfy, but not meant for adults. It is very small in the back seats. The trunk is very big. Sound system is the best! You can hear the music with the doors and top off. Taking the hard top off take 2 people. Taking the doors off only take 1 person. During the winter the backseat riders will be a little chilly not much to the back doors, so cold air goes through them. 4 wheel drive is the best during ice storms, and rain. I have never slid like I have with other cars. Not very fast when driving. When the wind blows it will blow the jeep around like a rag doll, but hands down the best vehicle I have ever owned!

Sydney T on June 4, 2021

I love that the top comes down.

I have had a safety recall on my steering damper. I love it. And that the top can come down easily. It is super fun in the summer and is the perfect beach car. I love the color of my car, and it is very comfortable while driving long distances. I would recommend this car to someone of any age.

Maya M on June 4, 2021

Space is limited, but the seats are comfortable and offer lots of cushioning.

Overall, the 2018 jeep wrangler is a spectacular car. It is comfy, reliable and performs well. The only thing you should expect, that might be a negative, is how light it is. Every small bump has the chance of sending you flying, and pressing on the gas too much is a no-no. If you are looking for a heavier car, this might not be the best option for you.

Lauren A on May 31, 2021

Jeep is a great and reliable vehicle.

I love that you can easily remove the top for a nice ride. The seats are not the most comfortable. The wrangler is completely customizable and makes it fun to make changes. The new models have much better gas mileage. The amount of accessories that you can purchase also makes it nice to make it your own.

Regina P on May 29, 2021

The most fun, go anywhere, vehicle.

The most versatile vehicle. Can go anywhere, can buy just about anything you can think of to customize it, has all the latest technology, and is extremely fun to drive. The seats are comfortable, short or long road trips, there’s no comfort being sacrificed. Jeep wranglers have been around forever so reliability speaks for itself.

Victoria B on May 15, 2021

2018 jeep wrangler golden eagle.

I love my jeep wrangler! I have had no problems with it at all. Extremely reliable. Comfortable. Car seat max of 5 people but 4 is most comfortable. Has a lot of room for hauling around whatever I may need. Has been great for several long distance road trips over 1000 miles. Can change out the tops and have days with the panels out so I can have the fresh air. Overall a fun vehicle!

Tina B on May 10, 2021

My jeep and what I like/ dislike about it.

The keep. Is great. Fun in the summer but the hardtop can be difficult to take off and put back in. The keep is surprisingly bad in the rain and slides If you hit the breaks. The interior of the Sahara is nice and the stereo system sounds great. Heated non leather seats are also awesome.

Maria E on May 8, 2021

Amazing jeep things that no one else has.

I am in love with my jeep. It is spacious comfortable and very easy to drive. I love how every time you see a jeep there is a jeep wave and everyone is so friendly. Also when taking the doors and roof off it is the most amazing thing ever. I would definitely recommend getting a jeep.

Derick S on May 4, 2021

A reliable vehicle for the tough New England climate.

Jeep wrangler is perfect for NH. It is reliable and can get through the tough New England show. It is easy to drive and park too! It was well worth purchasing and is good in all weather conditions. It fits all my needs and great room for storage and seat can be pushed up or be removed.

Reece B on May 3, 2021

I love my jeep, it has a lot of details that make it special for others.

Some of my vehicle problems are that the gas is extremely expensive because I have a big tank. So that is sometimes an issue, because the tank to fill of empty is around 50$. Another issue I have had is my jeep has been dying, which could do with the new speakers and stereo I put in it. Another issue is a jeep is a rough riding car so driving it on the highway can be rough at times.

Mariah N on April 27, 2021

I love my 2018 jeep wrangler!

It is insanely reliable. I have not had any problems with it so far. I bought it used and I am very happy with the way it drives. I got it raised with larger tires and it makes driving nice. Also I got upgraded rims and it just completes the look. It is super comfy inside also. The seats are a tan color and leather. I got most of the features in my model and they are very nice. (heated seats, steering wheel ect.).

Megan W on April 22, 2021

I am a jeep girl for life!

I absolutely love my jeep! It is awesome all year round and I get great gas mileage. It came with free roadside assistance which I have used a couple times now because of flat tires that is really help me out. I love taking the top off in the summer! I can haul my boat with it!

Ash H on April 15, 2021

I love my awesome jeep, would recommend!

My vehicle is really comfortable, the seats are just amazing. It also has options on which you prefer to drive and it is great for whichever speed you like to drive in. It is also very reliable and great for families. It has some awesome features as well.

Jane G on April 11, 2021

Jeep wrangler the pros and cons.

The car itself is very nice, the only thing I think I do not like is it drifts sometimes when its raining out and you cannot take very sharp or fast turns, but the car is comfy and it does not get too hot inside the car during the summer, the top comes off very easily and the door are a bit difficult to put on and off.

Zachary S on April 8, 2021

Jeep thing, I'd have to say best part about the jeep are all the other jeep owner.

Just buy a jeep, you'll be happier. Cheap on gas, looks good, runs good, sounds good, girls love to ride around topless in them, fuel mileage, go absolutely anywhere, do anything, good hunting vehicles, good work vehicles, very efficient, comfortable, nice headlights, taillights, fog lights, towing pkg,

Gen B on April 7, 2021

Why jeeps are the perfect car.

Perfect. Fully loaded with all features. Lifted wheels, heated seats and steering wheel. Sirius, am, and FM radio stations. All doors and rooftop parts are detachable. It also has four wheel drive settings. This is the perfect car to drive in any weather condition and any type of ground (sandy beach, slippery street).

Lou M on April 4, 2021

Too many blind spots in this vehicle. Each side of front window, center back, both sides of car and both sides of rear window.

Standard utility vehicle. No frills, bells, or whistles. Lacks safety features such as blindspot notification and back up camera. Too many blind spots in this vehicle.

My G on April 2, 2021

Mojito green jeep jl wrangler.

Excellent diving vehicle that lives up to the jeep name. Disappointed in the gas mileage, combined with the fact that it uses premium fuel makes the gas cost even worse. The monitor green color draws a great deal of attention and aftermarket parts makes the vehicle very customizable.

Caleigh R on April 1, 2021

Wrangler driver: is this car for you?

I really do love my wrangler but it's not for everyone. The sport has a great engine but like most wranglers it has the automatic stop feature which makes it a little jerky when driving in a urban setting. Overall I think it's a great car and is great for traveling! Also I the wrangler community is a cool community.

Elissa B on March 31, 2021

It's well working, big enough and very safe.

My vehicle fits me and my family very well and is really great for car trips. I enjoy it a lot, gas is not such a problem with it either. I am glad I chose this vehicle so I don't have to worry about the safety of my passengers. I really recommend it, you won't be dissatisfied.

Haley H on March 30, 2021

Perfect for a drive on the coast or an off-roading trip in the mountains.

This vehicle is very versatile and perfect for those who seek adventure in their lives. Although not the best road trip car due to instability, uncomfortable seats, and poor gas mileage, jeep wranglers are perfect for cruising around town or even off-roading is not the mountains. So take it for a short ride with the top off!

Ella K on March 29, 2021

The car itself looks great and is super popular.

I got a super good deal on it and it is the best car! It is super comfortable and has 2 rows of seats front and back, and also has 4 doors. I really love listening to music in here because the quality is amazing the only bad thing is how much gas it uses up in a short period of time but everything else is perfect!!

Johnathan B on March 29, 2021

Jeeps are reliable and comfortable.

I do not have vehicle problem besides regular wear and tear. The performance is different from a normal car. It feels smooth when driving but it does feel like a truck. The gas mileage on the jeep is a lot. The technology is really simple. It has sx radio. It is very reliable and also comfortable. It sits 5 or more comfortably.

Tammy K on March 23, 2021

Jeep wrangler Sahara worth every penny.

Very comfortable to drive, so much fun in the summer and winter. I feel very safe driving it. Haven't had any problems with anything. Very reliable vehicle. My kids love driving it also. For a jeep it gets pretty good gas mileage. Especially on the interstate.

Louis R on March 23, 2021

Good serviceable vehicle, would not recommend if you have kids.

Not very spacious on the inside, otherwise it drives pretty well, makes turns well. Feels less like in a driving a sedan than a truck. The inside has a good amount of plastic components which gives the car a bit of a cheap feel, could easily be replaced with a more desirable material. Also taking the roof off is quite difficult, not quite the convertible I imagined.

Haley G on March 22, 2021

2018 white Sahara jeep wrangler-It's a jeep not a luxury vehicle.

Julian R on March 22, 2021

Doors off. Summer Ready. Winter prepared.

It's really awesome, it's cool that the doors can be taken off so easily and the soft top is easily convertible. Performance is good. Haven't had it long enough to determine the reliability but so far so good. Comfortable enough. The basic trim is excellent.

The Jeep handles the road well and is spacious

I love my Jeep it's high off the ground cause I'm tall I don't worry about potholes

Good looking jeep, pretty and rugged

No problems really. Sometimes it is loud when I am driving fast on the freeway. But overall I am very happy and have not found any issues yet. I love all the features, including removal hard top, the navigation system, the space. I love the exterior aesthetic and interior as well.

How much fun it is to drive. To be able to put the top down on the car and run errands makes running errands not so bad.

I love this car. Fun to drive around town. Excellent Nav system and sound system. No complaints.

Love my jeep wrangler- you cannot go wrong with a wrangler!

Love my jeep and the overall jeep brand. A few warranty issues but always resolved by jeep. I love my soft top roof, it is very easy to remove. I love the durability of the vehicle, going to the airport or the beach plant of room for luggage or beach equipment.

Best vehicle I have ever owned!

Drives well even in the winter months. Love the freedom tops for summer! Great height and love the size. It is not too big nor too small. We chose cloth seats which works well for us and love that they are heated along with heated steering wheel.

4 door jeep wrangler. Love and steal it.

Oil change seems to be due quicker than other cars. Gasoline drains out - fill up about 2 times weekly. I commute to work about 70 miles (round trip). Off-roading is why I mostly got my jeep, I been across 7 states and it has ran like I just drove it off the dealer. If you are not looking to invest in tires, gas and tune ups. I would not recommend getting a wrangler.

All jeeps have an easter egg which is super cool I just haven't found mine yet.

It is the best, it is summer and I have no doors on it. It is up high and I can take it off roading. It is a lot of fun. The glove box and center console have locks which is really convenient. It has ac and heat and straps on the roll cage for people to hold onto. The back has a hidden compartment for when the doors are off.

Help wrangler unlimited sport - the best.

I love the feeling I get while driving my jeep. I love the customizable options and the way it handles every type of unique off-roading terrain. The only issue I have had is with the stereo/Bluetooth system. Whenever I connect my phone to the system, it shuts down completely.

The best car on the market.

My car is very comfortable. I love how it gets compliments wherever I go. It is stylish and I love that it has lots of storage in the back. My favorite part is the heated steering wheel. I also love the heated seats. The car also has great speakers in it.

The jeep is a beautiful car.

The jeep has a lot of trunk space and allows me to carry large amounts at a time. It has top notch performance and is very comfortable. It is a reliable car and the hard top can be switched out for a soft, easily removable one. It also has a very clean look.

2018 jeep wrangler sport, drives smoothly too down.

The 2018 jeep wrangler is one of the best purchases I have ever made. It drives smooth no problems it is high up you can take the top down. The only thing is the radio it will restart randomly I suggest putting in another radio other than that great car.

Lifted 4 door, Jeep lovers dream.

My new Jeep wrangler is amazing. When my parents bought it for me it was surreal. The Jeep is 4 doors, all black, with blue rims. Loaded with automatic windows, eco-friendly devices (like auto stop feature), and a backup camera. Only had 70 miles on it when I got it, and does decently well on gas mileage, as well as having all leather interior and loads of space. Huge upgrade from my 2015 2 door red wrangler. Love this car, and have only had it for roughly 3 months.

They are great for any adventures.

I love my vehicle it is great for mountains dirt and just to be precise road trips it is great for any crazy adventure. The only problems I dislike is the sitting the seats are good but could get very uncomfortable especially on a long road trip. You cannot take a nap without your neck hurting worst only the front seats could go back while that back seats cannot.

Hailey B on February 16, 2021

Love my car, it is white and has leather seats. Air conditioner and a seat warmer.

I love my car. The color is white and is the wrangler Sahara. Everyday I roll down my windows and drive the coastline listening to California girls while drinking my iced coffee. I am not even joking. This car is amazing. And cute. Air conditioning is great. Seat warmers amazing.

2018 jeep wrangler sport s review.

This car is really amazing, very comfortable to ride in and is very spacious. I haven’t ran into any problems with this car at all. It is a little tall for all my short people out there like me I am 5’0 but once you get used to the car it gradually becomes easier. This car was the best investment I have made and I am planning on upgrading soon.

Maria G on February 13, 2021

Really good just have to my a transmission because the miles go up and up.

I really do not have problems with it but I do have to buy a new transmission because I drive a lot and the miles go up and up. And the jeep is really nice and it is smooth but u really do have to take care of it. I like that u take off windows and doors so like air is good.

Ariel S on February 13, 2021

I love the way it drives.

I love my car; it's incredibly durable. Jeeps are expensive but amazing. They really take what you put them through and I haven't had any issues with it thus far.

Domenic D on February 13, 2021

Great car with some minor setback.

Issues would be large blind spot on the left frame of windshield. Would prefer more horsepower although the car can hold its own. Passengers have complained about limited space and comfortability especially in shotgun seat. Hardtop is a pain to take off and requires two people.

Fun for outdoors, family travel and exploring

Very fun family vehicle! Unfortunately it's not very roomy, I wish there was a back DVD player for my kids more cup holders and air vents to the back seats. Top is very easy to take off when needed. The backspace is very roomy, wish there could eventually be a third row jeep?

Jeep 2018 wrangler: traction issues.

The only issue I’d say I have with my vehicle is the tires. I find they're rather slippery when it rains or snows and do not have great traction. The four wheel drive is not the best so I avoid driving at all if I know it is going to snow. Otherwise it is a great vehicle to own!

City living and weekend escapes!

Great vehicle for city living and off roading! We love our jeep because it is easy to drive and maneuver in the busy New York city streets - but we love taking the roof off for a nice Sunday drive or a quick trip north. It is more than a vehicle it is a lifestyle.

The new 2018 wrangler unlimited jl drives like a dream.

My new 2018 Jeep wrangler unlimited Sahara jl is a dream vehicle. I recently drove my Jeep from coast to coast and it rode like a dream. The handling is fantastic. Road noise is noticeable, but not overly distracting. The gas mileage is better than I expected. When I purchased the Jeep. The newly designed removable roof and doors are incredibly easily to take off. The doors are lightweight and require only a few bolts to remove. The roof pieces are incredibly easy to remove and make for a great ride when they are taken off. I cannot say enough great things about this vehicle.
