Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation, public domain. Complaint counts reflect what owners reported and are not a measure of failure rate per vehicle sold.

What this can and cannot tell you: these are complaints owners chose to file, not a failure rate. Popular models accumulate more of them simply by being common. How this is built.

Owners filed 9,055 complaints with NHTSA about the 2007–2017 Jeep Wrangler, and 6,126 of them record the mileage at which the failure happened. That is enough to show not just what fails, but when.

Failures are spread across the mileage range, with the middle half between 25,000 and 77,100 miles. The median is 50,000 miles.

The most-reported areas are the airbag system (13.8% of complaints, typically around 67,000 miles), the engine (11.8% of complaints, typically around 55,000 miles), the transmission and driveline (11.5% of complaints, typically around 32,000 miles).

21 recall campaigns cover this generation. 3 of them carry a severe NHTSA advisory.

If you arrived asking “is it reliable?” — this page answers the version of that question the data can support: which problems owners reported, and at what mileage.

How many miles does a 2007–2017 Jeep Wrangler last?

Half of the failure reports on the 2007–2017 Jeep Wrangler were filed by 50,000 miles and 90% by 107,000 miles — figures drawn from 6,126 NHTSA complaints that record an odometer reading, so they time reported failures, not the cars whose owners never filed one.

26 reports (0.4%) came in past 200,000 miles — each one proof a Wrangler reached that mileage, not that it died there.

Before you buy a 2007–2017 Wrangler: the 3-minute check

Generated from 6,126 mileage-tagged complaints, 21 recall campaigns, 5 documented problem areas. Print this page — the checklist survives print.

  1. A DO NOT DRIVE recall covers part of this generation. Run the VIN before you drive it home — the fix is free at any dealer.
  2. Run the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. 21 campaigns cover this generation; an open recall is a free repair you can make the seller's problem.
  3. Check engine (3.6l pentastar cylinder head) on 2012–2013 cars. Left-bank (cylinders 1-3) cylinder head failure, typically a valve seat or valve guide defect producing a persistent tick, misfire and check-engine light. Chrysler issued an extended warranty on affected heads to…
  4. Check engine (3.8l v6) on 2007–2011 cars. Excessive oil consumption and piston/ring wear with associated cold-start tick on the 3.8L EGH V6; also weak on power relative to the vehicle's weight, especially in the 4-door Unlimited.
  5. Check electrical (tipm) on 2007–2013 cars. Totally Integrated Power Module failure causing no-start, fuel pump relay sticking on or off, stalling, and random accessory operation. A widely reported Chrysler-wide defect of this era.
  6. Complaint reports are not spread evenly across model years here — see the by-model-year table below before you settle on a year.
  7. End with a pre-purchase inspection of this car. Aggregate data describes the population; the example in front of you has its own history.

For a buyer, failures on this generation are spread rather than concentrated: the middle half falls between 25,000 and 77,000 miles, with a median of 50,000. There is no single mileage threshold to watch, which means condition and maintenance records are more informative than the odometer.

On inspection, the airbag system and the engine are where this generation's reports concentrate, so those are the areas worth a specific look. The engine in particular shows a median failure mileage of 55,000, which gives a concrete number to compare against the odometer of any car you are considering.

None of this is a substitute for a pre-purchase inspection on the individual car. Aggregate patterns describe a population; the example in front of you has its own history.

Which systems, and when

Complaints about this generation are not spread evenly across the vehicle, and the systems that generate the most of them do not all fail at the same point in a car's life. The median failure across all systems here is 50,000 miles; the figures below show which parts of the car run ahead of that and which run behind.

The airbag system accounts for 13.8% of complaints (1,249 reports, 793 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 67,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 47,000 and 90,000 miles.

The engine accounts for 11.8% of complaints (1,070 reports, 775 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 55,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 29,000 and 80,000 miles.

The transmission and driveline accounts for 11.5% of complaints (1,039 reports, 585 of them with a mileage figure), and it fails early — a median of 32,000 miles, well before the vehicle's overall median. Failures clustered this far below the rest of the car usually point to a design or manufacturing problem rather than wear, because wear does not selectively target one system on low-mileage examples. The middle half of these reports falls between 12,000 and 61,000 miles.

The electrical system accounts for 10.7% of complaints (968 reports, 706 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 58,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 31,000 and 84,000 miles.

The steering accounts for 10.6% of complaints (956 reports, 608 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 45,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 24,000 and 74,000 miles.

The brakes account for 6.5% of complaints (585 reports, 205 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 49,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 27,000 and 76,000 miles.

Differences between model years

Within this generation, complaint volume is not constant across model years. The 2012 model year drew the most — 1,285 complaints — while 2017 drew the fewest at 422. The median year sits at 792.

Recalls and what they cover

NHTSA records 21 recall campaigns covering vehicles in this generation. A recall means the manufacturer or the regulator concluded there was a safety defect or a standard was not met, and that a free remedy is owed to owners — including second and later owners.

3 of these carry a severe advisory — NHTSA's do not drive or park outside warnings, which the agency applies only when it considers the risk immediate. If you own one of these vehicles, that is the first thing to check by VIN.

The campaigns cluster around the airbag system (9), the transmission and driveline (3), the hydraulic brake circuit (2). Repeated recalls against the same area of the car generally mean the first remedy did not fully resolve the underlying problem.

Recall status is specific to the individual vehicle, not the model. Checking a VIN against NHTSA's lookup is free and takes under a minute, and it is the only way to know whether a particular car has had the work done.

These flags are self-reported by complainants and unverified by NHTSA; one report can carry several flags, so the counts overlap and do not sum to a total. They are not adjusted for how many of these vehicles are on the road. No chart is drawn here on purpose: overlapping counts spanning very different magnitudes cannot be honestly encoded as lengths.

Documented problems

Engine (3.6l Pentastar Cylinder Head) 2012–2013

Left-bank (cylinders 1-3) cylinder head failure, typically a valve seat or valve guide defect producing a persistent tick, misfire and check-engine light. Chrysler issued an extended warranty on affected heads to 150,000 miles for early Pentastar builds.

Engine (3.8l V6) 2007–2011

Excessive oil consumption and piston/ring wear with associated cold-start tick on the 3.8L EGH V6; also weak on power relative to the vehicle's weight, especially in the 4-door Unlimited.

Electrical (tipm) 2007–2013

Totally Integrated Power Module failure causing no-start, fuel pump relay sticking on or off, stalling, and random accessory operation. A widely reported Chrysler-wide defect of this era.

Front Suspension / Steering 2007–2018

'Death wobble' front-end oscillation from worn track bar, ball joints and steering linkage on the solid front axle; the subject of sustained NHTSA complaint volume across the generation.

Front Axle 2007–2018

Front axle inner 'C' and ball joint wear producing steering looseness and contributing to the wobble complaints, more pronounced on 4-door and larger-tire vehicles.
