We expect the 2025 Gladiator will have about average reliability when compared to the average new car. This prediction is based on data from the 2023 model and the Jeep brand score.
The Reliability score is based on our latest subscriber survey of 2021 Jeep Gladiator owners. The owner comments describe problems respondents experienced with this vehicle.
Squeaks, rattles, wind noises, seals and/or weather stripping, air and water leaks.
"The problem relates to the auto restart system"
Anonymous, OH (2021 Jeep Gladiator Willys 3.6-L V6)Gear selector and linkage, transmission computer, transmission sensor or solenoid, clutch adjustment, rough shifting, slipping transmission, leaks.
"Transmission experienced symptoms related to a pressure plate recall. Clutch would slip and put vehicle into limp mode so the pressure plate wouldn't fly apart and shoot hot metal parts into the cabin. Dealership and Jeep cares kept saying there were no parts available (or identified) but also refused to pay for aftermarket parts that clearly were better than the factory garbage. This went on for months until eventually I just let the lease go back and washed my hands of it. Between the fact that they managed to mess up one of the simplest devices ever (clutch), refused to fix a recalled part, and treated me like I was too stupid to understand anything (literally a practicing PE mechanical engineer). The icing on the cake was death wobble that manifested itself around 26k miles anytime I drove over 60mph. It was so bad that I almost wrecked it 2x. I ran from Jeep after 30 years of owning multiple Jeeps. Never again."

"Sun visors both driver side lock"

"Around 26k began experiencing the infamous death wobble. It would start anytime over 60mph, the steering wheel violently shakes side to side and you basically lose all steering control. The only solution is to brake as hard as possible while trying to keep it from veering off the road. It's probably loose steering box bolts or a bad bushing, something wrong with the front suspension."
