Wow…..I’m going to go out and buy a lottery ticket today! I’m an original owner of a spec-ordered ‘97 TJ Sport (with the inline 6). 150k+ on the clock. I’ve had none of those problems (except for the bonus, #6. Due to frame rot, I did have the frame professionally capped by a local Jeep specialist). I would add (#7) rot in the two front fenders and (#8) windshield frame rust. To replace my windshield recently, I had to have the frame replaced….and I replaced both fenders. So, knock on wood, I’ll be driving my TJ to the grave.

We have two jk Wranglers and lucky that in Australia we don’t salt our roads. Also we spray a bitumen like coating in the difficult areas such as chassis rails etc. and so far no rust at all on the 2008 and 2013 model. However the information you gave us is gold and I will keep my eye out thanks.

@@limabean4581 So riddle me this batman if it's literally the most impractical "truck" out there then why do they hold their value so well? Example- I have two vehicles my 2001 Jeep TJ with 178,000 miles, fair condition, cost $8,500 6 years ago and still valued at $5,800 trade in and $7,000 private party. My 2008 VW Jetta with 64,000 miles, very good condition, cost $16,000 brand new off the lot 12 years ago and valued at $3,900 trade in and $5,000 private party. Oh and $1,500 of that is credit for low miles since my Mom was the previous owner and only put 27,000 miles on it in 11 years. P.S. For the record I would like to add the car was a gift for my son, but he doesn't feel the need to drive it, so I do occasionally. I know better then to buy anything new off a lot, that's my families deal, not mine.

@DojiKing2 жыл бұрын
Sounds like your jeep is an automatic. You might have a bad nss or your shifter cable is loose and not fully putting the jeep in park. Check the cable first and make sure the cable in not loose or damaged. If you see some cable fraying then replace it. If just loose tighten it. The cable length is adjusted where it passes through the bracket that secures it to the transmission on the driver's side. There is a locking clip that holds it in place, just release it and move the cable back or forth a notch which should take care of it.

Wrong programming, faulty new ECM? Any recommendations?
