2011 with 65k on it. My transmission pump failed and ended up getting it rebuilt at 50k(not covered under warranty). Solinoid pack in transmission failed and was replaced (under warranty). I hope to get at least 100k miles out of my jeep.

I've already put 43,000 on my 2014 Sport. In that time I have replaced a windshield, went through two throwout bearings, failed part steering pump, and had to get a new soft top and tires. The throwout bearings and power steering pump were covered under warranty, but not the soft top. Weird, I figured that the stitching on a soft top coming unraveled from a spot where there are no zippers or velcro nearby would be considered faulty, but I guess not. Other than that I've been satisfied with the level of service from Jeep.

2009 4dr Sahara with 101k. Nothing wrong powertrain wise except leaky transmission lines replaced around 20k and the obligatory 3.8 dry start. Other then that runs like a top. Burns about 3/4qt over 3k miles runing castrol gtx HM, oil change every 3-4k. It has been superchiped for about the last 20k.

Yep. The OEM throwout bearings are a hot pile of garbage. The tolerances are lousy and they have a ton of play in them from the moment they're put in. I had my dealer put in a National bearing this time around. No more knocking sounds from the tranny like with the old ones and I expect it will hold up much better.
