Impressive!
My 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee was trouble free until 16K miles when it need a new oil pan, and was then fine until around 60K miles when the lower control arm bushings were so rotten that the axles hit the struts on hard 1-2 shifts. It was alright then until around 70K miles when the N23 recall/update messed up t he 4WD low range and I needed to buy a PCM out of a wrecked Jeep without a recall having been programmed. That ironed things out until about 80K miles when I noticed the transmission leaking. After they pulled it out and replaced the front main pump seal, I was legit G2G until about 88K miles when the water pump went out. After fixing that, she was rock solid for about 5K more miles when the transmission leak resurfaced and a service engine light came on. I fixed that by trading it. Over all pretty solid truck, yo!

My last CX5...

...needed new diff at 34K miles because I flooded it and did not know, and 2 months later the electronic clutch shorted out/corroded some part of the solenoid and I got a service AWD light.
...needed new right fog-lamp bulb at 87K miles because it burned out/filament broke.
...needed a new fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator at 106K miles, which I think was due to bad fuel/contaminant, as they broke simultaneously and 5 minutes after a fill-up.

Absolute most trouble-free vehicle I've ever owned. Why I bought another one, in large part.
