Just over 90K on mine. The mechanicals seem real strong. The rest of it - not so much. Haven't had the time to take it in for the new gas tank yet. I can get about .5 gallons in at a time. All I have to say is THANK GOD for the Lifetime MaxCare package. Without it, the Lifetime powertrain warranty wouldn't be worth doo doo.
Care to explain? I assume from what I've read that the engine/drivetrain are 100% covered with no deductable and it covers everything from the skin to the inside of each item. Now, I paid 90 bucks to have my rear door lock replaced and that's been it. Guess from my past ownership of the Liberty, I don't feel like I made a bad choice not buying the 2-3k dollars for this coverage. My daugthers 02 got it's radiator replaced and it was under 300.00 and everything else looks orig. Now I don't beat my KK to death but having had extended warranties before, I figured it wasn't worth it. Knock on wood..

I have the $50 deductable plan. Paid $1700 for it I think... Or maybe that was on the truck and this was $2300 - I forget. I live off road and I wouldn't say I beat my jeep into the ground, but you could tell it's been driven. Somewhere around here there's a list crap that's been fixed - must have been 30 items long and that's at least a year ago. But, off the top of my head...
I just set up the appt for the gas tank - not sure what they charge for those plus install, but it's more than $50.
Rear window sensor
rear window leak
Rear gate sensor
air bag clock spring
clutch return spring
4wd switch - switch died and completely disabled the 4wd/esp/etc... great design. dash looked like a christmas tree. might have been on the powertrain warranty - don't recall
serpentine belt tensioner
separated shifter boot
missing rubber trim pieces
innumerable e-brake 'fixes' (I live on a mountain - can't park on a hill - WTF?!)
All in all, I can't believe they offered this sort of coverage on these vehicles... There's a whole other list of crap I haven't even fixed - there's some spring or something loose in the drivers seat and every time you sit down you hear CREEEAAAK - the trim pieces from the insides of the seats fell off years ago - the zipper failed on the boot for the ebrake and it's been slowly shredding itself - the fan doesn't always want to change direction - select floor and it stays on windshield or vis-versa - the compontent hookup for the stereo is loose and staticy. Basically, this jeep is a POS and if I had to keep shelling out money to fix all these things, I'd have traded it in on something else already. But now I own it outright and Jeep's on the hook, so ef 'em.
