In general however, I do think ZF has come up with a needlessly complicated solution to something that was not really a problem in the first place. Why couldn't they have just made a variation of their more conventional (and smooth, and reliable) 8-speed for FWD/AWD applications?
Fit and finish were uneven. The vehicle was red, but one frame rail near the engine was pink - as though the paint barely covered the primer. The headlight switch was loose in the dashboard.
Some of these were possibly startup problems, but some were clearly design issues.
I really wanted to love the Renegade, but I can't just yet. I'm looking forward to your long-term test with great interest.
