What owners wrote
In an accident 01/30/2018. Hit vehicle that ran a red light in driver's side at somewhere betwen 30-40 MPH with the front of my vehicle. The other vehicle flipped over on it's top. It was a full size pick-up with loaded service body. The impact stopped my vehicle. My vehicle was a 2017 jeep wrangler with 7500 miles on it. As a result of the damaged my vehicle was a total loss.
Occasionally the hood lifts up and shakes violently while driving at highway speed, typically when an on oncoming semi truck passes. I'm concerned the rubber hood straps are going to break and the hood fly open at highway speeds.
