Jeeps have a reputation for being hit or miss with reliability. How they are looked after, including servicing, driving style, and car care, all have a huge bearing on the reliability found by owners as some seem to get breakdown-plagued lemons, while others never have an issue. If you want a car you can basically ignore, put fuel in and drive around, I'd look to a Toyota Prado.
Jeeps tend to have a hit-and-miss reputation with reliability. Some people have nothing but trouble from the time they drive out of the dealership, while others can get hundreds of thousands of kilometres of faithful service from theirs. The Cherokee models, petrol and diesel, seem to prefer being used on long highway commutes rather than in short, stop-start city driving as my best friend's 2015-model diesel Cherokee has been a picture of reliability since he bought it and he regularly commutes several hundred kilometres per-day.
His diesel is serviced on-time, every-time which no doubt helps reliability.

Jeep's Wrangler models are an unabashed throwback to their history making simple, rough and ready off-road vehicles. While they've become somewhat chic urban runabouts their fairly simple construction means they're fairly reliable when serviced regularly and looked after. However they're not the last word in refinement or could even be considered all that nice to drive around city environments with poor noise control, heavy steering, poor ride quality and turning circle.
