What's most upsetting is now Jeep is offering Factory integration with onX Offroad on their next release, and will come with all the Badge of Honor trails pre-installed.
Yeah. I had thought I had avoided the dirt/ice mountain group but my engine is right in the middle of the 2.7L valve investigation everyone is posting about here. So far no issues there, but I'm just hoping it doesn't become repair #4...
I understand completely. This is why I got an automatic because I didn't trust myself to learn offroad technique and have to deal with a manual transmission. It was in gear, got into a steep decline we didn't like so tried to gradually throttle up to get out of it. Lots of angry noises. No...
This is what I'm worried about with the current issue. They originally wanted me to just pick it back up since they couldn't replicate the warning lights (which come on after driving for a bit). Now they say they see a code for oil pump.
True it might not seem long, but something new has popped up every few months and these problems have encompassed the body, drivetrain, and now engine. Not a great sense of reliability.
Texas Lemon laws indicate if they haven't resolved the issue and it's been in the shop more than 30 days in the first 2 years of ownership it can qualify.
I've had a 4 door Bronco Outerbanks 2.7L for just over a year now, though it has been plagued by never-ending list of warranty repairs.
Earlier this year it was in the shop for a few weeks waiting for the entire top panel of the soft top to be replaced because the fabric tore right off the...
Having a real Chevy Blazer back in the mix would really escalate a competition for these offroad capable SUVs. The Land Rovers are just too expensive and end up as parking lot queens for anyone to really be taking them offroad in the same numbers.
Look how they massacred my boy...
I had a 98' Blazer S-10 through Graduate school and I tore all over Utah, Wyoming, etc. with it. School was in Nebraska and it saw several winters, always getting me through the big snow embankments the plows would make at the ends of our side street. Those...
Get them to replace that whole portion of the top. My dealer had the entire top piece of the soft top, support bars and all, replaced when it separated from the bars for me.
Thanks! That's what I was able to glean from here and the internet, but it's not always super clear. Having test-drove a wildtrak before getting my Bronco I think the 35s are the perfect marriage of beefy tires and highway drivability which is where I'll unfortunately be spending most of my...
I've got a 4 door Outer Banks with the optional upgrade for the rear locking differential. In the future I think I may be interested in upgrading the coilovers, control arms, shocks, etc. for some additional off-road capability and to upgrade to 35" tires from the 32"+ that come standard. I...
It was great! Folks working there were super helpful on setting us out on some beginner trails, lots of which still had some good rock crawling opportunities with bypasses. We bounced along to the highest point in the park and did a big loop around the place, including some step descents, and...
First post here as I think it's important to document this stuff as best we can.

Mostly city driving but took her on a several hour road trip last year without problems.
