What has been repaired/replaced in 10 years, life of a 2007 JKU Rubi
263000 miles on mine. i just had to do head gaskets on it and i did a timing chain too. glad i did it had tons of slack in it.

263,000 That's good going.
Is that your 2nd clutch at that mileage ?
If so How long did you get out of the first one ???
Got a RHD 2.8CRD 6 speed at 95,0000
Replaced Ball & U-Joints
New Drag & Tie rod (rubbers spitting grease & rust)
Front axle seals
Replaced rear Emergency Brake assemblies looking rough due to rust
Also EBrake cable snapped day before inspection
Calipers
U-Joint on front drive shaft seized up which led to replacement of pinion bearings
Local shop replaced joint, tack welded & re balanced which save a lot of cash for a new one.

TIPM and thermostat housing
Intake manifold gasket again
Windshield wiper are linkage bushing ( I did this myself)
Passenger side window regulator
I'm really glad I have the lifetime warranty which covered all of the above. I can't imagine how much this would have cost without the warranty but I know it has easily exceeded the cost of the lifetime warranty.

Interesting to compare. I think I have most of the common issues. It has been a pretty good engine.
2010 JKU Rubi - 80,000 miles
- just replaced radiator (small leak)
- replaced cam sensor
- replaced transmission linkage plastic thing
- replaced evap system plastic hose connector thing
- replaced wheel speed sensors (2 of them)
- replaced pcv valve (old was good but changed it anyway)
- just replaced TPMS sensors (with new tires)
- considering replacing the transmission line (slight weep leak at hose fitting) only during cold weather

Here is my list for my 09 with 204K miles on it. I maybe forgetting somethings off the top of my head.Overall, I would say it's been pretty damn reliable and never once left me stranded. Some of the stuff I replaced was purely cosmetic, but figured after 10 years I would replace it to freshen it up. My Jeep is pretty much all stock except for slightly larger tires and a tow tune (superchip) that I have been running for the last 120K miles. I change my oil every 3-5K miles and run the oil filter from the 3.7 motor (Napa Gold 1516) that is about 2x the size of the stock one and I replace air filters (wix only) about once a year.
-Brakes (3x for the front 3-4x for the back) I have upgraded to the Mopar BBK and they have lasted significantly longer.
-Shocks 3x
-Front U-joints 4x
-Tires 3x (60K, 160K) last two sets have been duratracs and got 100K out of my first set.
-Tie rod ends 1x
-Steering Stabilizer 3x
-Fuel Cap 1x
-Windshield 1x
-Blinker Stalk 2x (first one replaced would turn my headlights off when turning right and second one would intermittently not click right)
-Radiator 1x (cracked and leaking)
-Starter 1x (replaced around 180K due to it sticking in the cold)
-Transmission oil lines (under warranty)
-Intake gaskets at around 170K (under warranty)
-Transmission filter at around 160K miles (Wix) and was flushed at 20K miles
-Transfer case plastic shift bushing
-Pulley bearings 2x
-Serpentine belt 3x
-Spark Plugs 3x (63K, 160K) replaced with NGK Iridiums. OEM were shot at 63K. Replaced wires at 63K as well.
-Battery 3x
-Blower Motor 3x (replaced the last OEM with a TYC blower since its 1/3rd the price. They work fine, but eventually they all start to make noise from all the dirt they suck will with no cabin filter)
-Headlights (hazy and replaced with JW speakers)
-Fog lights (hazy replaced with stock lens and LED bulbs
-Door hinge bushings
-Freedom Panel seals (hit all rubber seals with silicone spray as well - no more leaking)
-Door tether 1x (driver door)
-Window Switch (lights burnt out)
-AC/Heater Switch (lights burnt out on left side)
-Rear view mirror (de-laminating on the inside)
-Rear license plate bracket (cracked)
Things soon to be fixed:
-Rear Door locks (I think I need to replace one actuator, the other just started working randomly after about 6 years so I'm not entirely sure)
-Dash rattle behind steering wheel (have no clue what this is, everything seems solid so I need to check the firewall from the engine bay)
-O2 sensors (I have one that is lazy and I hope it's whats throwing a cat efficiency code, otherwise I need some cats. My exhaust temps have never changed so I don't think they broke apart)
-Clogged heater core (I will try to flush it again with either radiator flush and might even try pure acetone, I really don't want to pull the dash out to replace it)
-Small tear in driver seat (will replace interior with Katskins)
-Brakes (3x for the front 3-4x for the back) I have upgraded to the Mopar BBK and they have lasted significantly longer.

Yes, you just reminded me I forgot that. Mine didn't die, but it wasn't releasing and the flywheel was catching it in the cold. I replaced it with a re-manufactured mopar from rock auto. Original lasted around 180K miles.
