All diagnostic and repair services are done in our local facility by experienced mechanics using dealer-level tools.

GMC Terrain Repair

Common Jeep Wagoneer Problems by Year

1984–1991 (Grand Wagoneer SJ Platform)

Though classic, these older Wagoneers need regular upkeep. 

  • Carburetor Issues: Stalling and poor idle are often linked to dirty or malfunctioning carburetors. 
  • Vapor Lock: Especially in hot weather, fuel could boil in the lines, making it hard to restart. 
  • Power Window Failures: Switches and motors wear out frequently. 
  • Rust Damage: Floor pans, rocker panels, and wheel wells are prone to corrosion. 

2022–2023 (WS Platform – Modern Revival)

The return of the Wagoneer brought tech upgrades—but also some recurring issues. 

  • Air Suspension Faults: The Quadra-Lift system sometimes fails to raise/lower correctly. Leaky airbags or compressor faults are common. 
  • Uconnect 5 System Bugs: Screen freezing, GPS lag, and Bluetooth disconnections may require firmware updates or replacement. 
  • Transmission Lag: 8-speed automatics have shown hesitation when cold or under load. A TCM update often resolves this, but hardware repairs may be needed. 
  • Camera System Errors: Rearview or 360-degree cameras sometimes fail to display, especially after software updates. 
  • Brake Booster Performance: A “spongy” pedal feel could relate to a faulty vacuum booster or ABS module.
