Someone Made an Epic Music Video on Buying a Lemon Jeep Grand Cherokee
You know what they say, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
Meet Teg, an Australian who purchased a Jeep Grand Cherokee for $60,000 in October 2013, a vehicle he says has been a lemon since the day he got it. According to Teg, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has had numerous issues and has been towed a number of times, while the dealership and Fiat Chrysler Australia have basically told him to “bugger off.”
So what do you do when you’re stuck with a Jeep Grand Cherokee that’s a lemon and the automaker doesn’t want to help you out? Create a viral music video of course, especially one that’s awesome and has surprisingly high production quality.

Teg says that there are currently two lobbying groups in Australia that are pushing for the introduction of lemon laws to help protect the consumer. In addition, he added that Fiat Chrysler Australia has had so many people complain to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) that in September 2015, it announced sanctions against the automaker.

My neighbor had a white Ford van that was a lemon right from the factory. Ford refused to honor its warranty! Unfortunately for Ford, the guy was a sign designer. So for the next few years...he drove a Ford van that had giant "This is a lemon" decals on the sides, the hood, and the top.
I own a 2001 Wrangler, been towed 4 times this year...but I still love it...maybe I should see a doctor.
