At what point does someone step in and say enough is enough. In 1 1/2 years my vehicle has been in 12 times. Besides the 7 recalls, there has also been issues with the gas cover broke, leather seat issues, power steering, shocks, brake boot and rear camera. If that isn't bad enough, many times they issue a recall and don't even have the parts available. The lemon laws are so dealer and manufacture friendly that it is very difficult to qualify. Each time I go to the dealer it is 120 miles round trip. Someone needs to step in and reimburse the consumers for this expensive mistake that Jeep made in manufacturing these vehicles which has been passed on to the consumer who thought we were getting a reliable product.
