Tales Of A Rubicon
My 2008 Rubicon reads like a story book.
While driving 1 week off the showroom floor, both heater hoses popped off firewall on highway causing loss of most of the antifreeze. Apparently
the clamps were never installed on the assembly line. During week 2 a rock caused a cracked windshield. A few months later , shifter cable broke at 2am (while out drinking in the middle of nowhere! ) requiring a tow to dealership.
Now a few years later and i have dealt with leaking transmission hoses, 2 more windshields, a cracked exhaust manifold and all 4 door hinges corroding. Thats just what i remember.
Funny part is i wouldn't trade my Jeep for anything!
Go Figure!
