We bought a Jeep from Meador in 2001. One thing I didn't like right off the bat was although the windows were not tinted, since they already included it in the price, they would not take the money off, but instead made us wait 3 days to pick the Jeep up while they sent it out to get the windows tinted.
In 2003 we started to have problems with the transmission. We bought an extended warranty on the car through Chrysler/Jeep making it an extension of the original factory warranty. When we brought the car in to be serviced, they refused to work on it. They said that it was an extended warranty and it didn't cover the engine. I pulled out the paperwork and showed them that YES IT DID. I even called Chrysler Warranty Directly to verify that it covered EVERYTHING that could go wrong with my car...yup it did....but they still didn't want to work on it. In fact, one of the guys said "Oh, my sister has a Jeep and that loud thunking noise is normal..dont worry about it."
In conclusion they are really nice when it comes to selling you a car...but they are not very competant when it comes to servicing the vehicle. I recommend going 10 miles up the road to TOMMY MANUAL JEEP DEALERSHIP right off of I-20. They took one look at the warranty, gave me a free rental and said they would call me when they fixed the problem! They are fantastic and really make you feel like family.
