What to check on the Wrangler

NHTSA lists 16 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 376 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, engine and fuel/propulsion system; have those parts checked. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

The figures, translated

The powertrain to know here is the 6.4L 8-cylinder, with four-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Four-wheel drive helps on rough ground and deep snow; on dry roads it behaves like any other vehicle.

It is rated at 16.5 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 50 litres. Driving 300 km costs roughly $86.64 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$5,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

What the Wrangler is like

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

When the Wrangler makes sense

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

Try before you buy

If the Wrangler is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. A test week in the Wrangler tells you more than any review. Rent the Wrangler first, and buy only if it fits your life.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.

Picking a year and a trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
