31st compared to what? If it's every other vehicle in the world I'd say that's pretty good. They sure as hell aren't invincible like most people here think.

I want to know more about this list. Like exactly what vehicles were tested against what vehicles. What years and all that. Jeep as a manufacture? New models I would believe it. Im not saying jeep is the most dependable, but I put my 1989 jeep higher than my 2004 Durango. Problem for problem my jeep has yet to strand me anywhere.

That's cause its made by Chrysler... and Chrysler has been in the crapper for a LOONNNNGGGG time. Jeep is about the only decent product the make.

I can't stand any chrysler products besides jeeps. I would never, ever choose a chrysler/dodge over a Ford any time soon.

Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep were the all the least dependable.

My Cherokee with 152k and no major repairs just laughed outside my window.

They obviously arn't talking about our old XJs. Nobody makes cars like that anymore. I am not suprised that my neighbors 2.4 liter Patriot, Compass or 3.7L liberty have more problems than 31 other cars. Not suprising at all. Plus I wouldnt quite consider the XJ very problem free either. I mean the engine and transmission holding up don't account for everything.

My liberty crd has nearly 100k with zero repairs done yet. I'm the original owner since new. So dont say all new jeeps are unreliable.

Im not saying that at all. I just find it funny that people are getting upset at this ranking, saying their xj this, their xj that, my xj has 150k, my xj has 200k. These are not the Jeeps the ranking considers. I am not bashing libertys either. Im just saying that its not outrageous for there to be 30 cars more reliable then new Jeeps.
