Frame and supports rusted to the point of offering no structural integrety of undercarriage. Frame on driverside at skid plate rusted allowing the skid plate to fall. Observed severe rust-through of frame along frame where skid plate had been bolted. Also transmission support failed. Have previously replaced failed brake lines which rusted through. I have parked the vehicle as it is unsafe. I think I realized it too late, however soon enough to have prevented a major accident. Warnings need to be issued immediately of these and other defects which have been noted by Jeep owners, especially for potential buyers. The frame apparently rust from inside out leaving little indication of severity.
I feel compelled to contribute, this 2000 is my 3rd Wrangler and I must say most of these complaints sound like trumped up bunk. Especially about shifting from 1st into 2nd and a grinding clutch on an automatic transmission?? the only problem I'll grant is the water in the passenger floorboard and that happened on my '91 as well. So what, it's a Jeep fer pete's sake. And if you've almost had an accident when the gearshift pops out in 1st. . . Stop pulling out in front of oncoming traffic. Problem solved. My gut feeling is that there are a lot of people who don't know how to properly drive a stcik shift and they're driving a Jeep like a sports car. I hate to rag on other Jeep drivers but I've seen them do it. Stop whining please.
Under dashboard its leaking. Water is getting inside of vehicle on driver/passenger sides. Carpet in vehicle would be soaked due to leakage. Problem can happen even if its wassnowing. Have taken vehicle to dealership 3 times for the leakage problem & the problem still exists.
