Problems Galore.

Ive had this 02 Jeep now for around 8 months.
Problems
1. Transmission line was leaking, fixed under warranty
2. Brakes squeeling, replaced calipers under warranty
3. Hood flew up on me doing 90mph do to faulty hood latch, fixed under warranty
4. Headunit shorted out, still don't know why, replaced under warranty.
5. Airbag sensor kept going off/on while driving, fixed under warranty.
5. Compass/Outside temp guage kept going haywire, fixed under warranty...........but as of today, it's doing it again.

Im thinking about getting another SUV, but I don't know what. It's definetly not going to be another domestic. Maybe a 4Runner. What do you all think? I', not getting another Honda, thats for sure. Its not that I don't like them, but one was enough.

damn domestic cars, and the jeep isnt that cheep either, i like the honda pilot, but i dunno how good it is, the 4runner is great but personally i would go for the toyota land cruiser, but i dont think u can get that in north america, or at least in canada, that car is amazing, or a nissan safari( not available in north america for some stupid reason)

Im probable not going to spend more than $29,000. If I could get a 02 at a discount from clearnace, I'll go ahead and see if I can do that. Maybe I'll go take a couple for a test drive after work.
