At 435k have only had to deal with 12 that I remember. Can we add melted ignition switch it's a RENIX thing. That would change my score to 13...lol

I replied this morning with a 7, and said knock on wood. On my way home my CEL came on, P0700 and P0705 (Neutral safety switch) guess its an 8 for me now lmfao

5 for my 99 so far.
In addition to the center console things there should be mention of the latch. Everyone I've looked for at the JY to replace mine is busted too.
The other issue, I am unsure if its common or not. But, my wiring from the body to the back hatch got snapped and the license plate light kaput. Thank you Mr. Police Man for bringing it to my attention.

I guess its ok as long as you don't have to go up every day haha. Granted my number is likely to go up every time a new issue is brought up that I forgot that I had at one time haha.
Looks like 21 for me.. 99 w/ 156k. 13 of which have been fixed. Haha, only 8 to go! If you add the ones I mention below, that would bring the unfixed total up to 12 and the grand total up to 25.. Guess I got some work to do.
Also, holes in floorboards should be a point. Goes beyond just rust, right? Idk. What about windshield washer issues like rear sprayer sprays away from XJ. What about "No Bus" reading. Or CEL on for any reason.
