    JL is a joke. Paint/corrosion issues,faulty chassis welds, common to have infotainment problems/freezing. FAD looks like it would weaken front axle housing. TJ is terrible on gas my 04 rubi 5spd gets 12.9mpg, bad for rusting out if exposed to salt. JK has some electrical issues like the JL, both of them have the 3.6 rocker arms that wear out and destroy cams to best of my knowledge. I have had 2 TJ's and they are great but they are getting old, if you are looking at one with any rust, especially in a salted roads in winter state, I would pass. The TJ frames rot out from the inside, and same with body. Have seen multiple rotted out TJ frames and tubs, 0 JK's, and the JK is way more common in my region. I think the JK is best value for most people. I would love a 2.0 turbo engine, 8speed auto or 6spd manual, tj body, on jk frame suspension and axles!

    • @The.Garage.Studio

      Yeah, all the platforms have some issues. I got the JL, and so far am happy with it. No corrosion, the Turbo engine is torquey and love the 8 speed. A lot of the electrical issues come down to the auxilary battery unfortunately. The stop/start system and the auxilary battery was a real genius of an idea.

    Thank you for this great video. I'm the original owner of a 2020 Sport S Gladiator, which was registered 8/24/2019. I'm in VT. It didn't get driven much on winter roads because of lockdowns/ work from home/ family caregiving and then some health issues. It did get carefully lanolin (fluid film) undercoated in 2019 before its first exposure to road salt. But it has lived its whole life outdoors. I haven't noticed corrosion yet but life's been kinda nutty and I will examine it carefully during the next week or so. If I'm lucky enough to NOT have corrosion at/around the hinges yet, is there a "prophylactic" measure that I could do like trying to "wick" FluidFilm (lanolin in mild light petroleum spirits) in/around the hinge perimeters and hope that the lanolin creeps into any open space and repels water from seeping into any open space? I'd rather have smudgy-looking hinges than corroded hinges and I'm right about to go off the 5 year cliff in barely a month. Thank you again and I'm going to try to look for the Facebook group, though I have, before now, totally avoided Facebook groups. Thank you so much for sharing the alert and info on this!

Just Empty Every Pocket. 😂 So far, zero sun shades on market work with the 24 and up Wranglers. My dealership told me it would fit, the wording on Mopar site suggests it works too. Nope, not happening. I couldn’t get it on, then two deal mechanics tried, and the dealer principal (Owner of dealership) and yeah, no fits.

Do you happen to know a good car wash service here where they wash cars by hand without those pressure washers? P.S. loooove all your videos, binged in two days :D My lovely 2003 Acura CL Type-S is dying, well not the car - this thing is immortal, but the transmission, which is the same price as the car >_< Couples days ago, got stuck in the middle of the desert on the way to LA and understood, that this car is not reliable anymore for long drives, especially in the heat. And so I am getting ready to finally allow myself my dream car - Wrangler! I am considering leasing for a couple of reasons - since I had only one and very old car - I really want to experience all those luxury add-ons that Jeep offers, plus a brand-new car feel :) Leasing is cheaper, and all the repairs will be covered by it, which is good while I am getting to know a completely new car!

    blame it on your fine government. they are forcing automakers to meet a MPG rating. Jeeps are heavy because of the full axles front and rear, so they had to put an aluminum body and doors to keep the weight down but keep steel hinges which cause Galvanic Corrosion from Dissimilar Metals (steel/aluminum) contacting each other. I have a 2018 JLUR and live in a wet climate but I haven't had a problem with mine.

    • @The.Garage.Studio
      @The.Garage.Studio 15 дней назад

      Yeah, that's debatable. I believe it's the moisture that's causing the corrosion on the aluminum panels, not galvanic corrosion. Galvanic corrosion doesn't explain all the other corrosion coming from the panels not near the hinge.

    This problem is ridiculous considering the cost of the vehicle.

    Thank you for this information. Every time I hear about this issue, I wonder what kind of company this is. I own a Jeep, but this issue makes me nervous. Even if it's covered under warranty, it's a waste of time. They knew about the issue but made zero effort to remediate it. Coverage under warranty is not enough; it should be covered for at least 10 years, if not more.

      @@The.Garage.Studio My question is about my 2023 car. I applied rust protection coating underneath and injected it inside the doors, but I am not sure if this procedure will protect my Jeep from corrosion. Do you know what else can be done to prevent it? Does painting the inside door hinges or doing something similar help prevent corrosion?

      @@johnshirbini5801 One of the things jeep is asking dealers to do is to apply cavity wax after repaining the jeep with the repairs, so you could consider that - anything to keep moisture away from the aluminum panels. I'd also wash the car yourself and ensure the hinges and the doors are nice and dry. I would not leave it outside if possible, always garage it. And if you do have rain, possibly wipe it down. Here's a video on the wax. If you haven't already, join the corrosion facebook group - ruclips.net/video/ihxT2wanEhA/видео.html

    My hinges started corroding on my 2014 JKUR. I pulled them apart, cleaned them up and masked and primed the unpainted door panels. I primed and repainted the hinges with flat black epoxy paint, added a gasket layer and sealed with clear silicone. 5 years later they still look great.

      Yep.. that'll do it. That's really what they should be doing as a fix. Leaving that body panel unpainted is not good.

    Let's admit it the factory knew about all these problems with the Jeeps by not preparing these surfaces properly to begin with Cause and all of these corrosion issues !! Which is unacceptable from the factory of them being cheaply built !!! Even a good body shop can tell you about these problems !! But with European Stellantis Company in charge now good luck !!😤😤🤬🤬🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️👎👎👎

      I doubt they knew about this issue when manufacturing was getting rolling. Problem is having to retool and make changes after the production line starts would be very expensive. But, they should have bit the bullet and just made the changes. Their pissing off their most loyal customers.

    Its a GALVANIC CORROSION problem with the mating of dissimilar metals. If you electrically isolate the alum from the carbon steel, the corrosion stops; a nonmetallic gasket between the hinge and the door and nonmetallic bolts or some way to isolate the bolt holes (electrically).

      We disagree. But.. I hope Jeep eventually finds a way to fix it.

      There is no dissimilar metals. The hinges are aluminum and the doors are aluminum.
