Direct rivals running close enough that you'd be fine either way. Reliability scores within rounding distance (4.7 for the 2025 Audi SQ7, 4.8 for the 2025 Jeep Wrangler). When two vehicles in the same segment land this close, the data alone won't pick a winner.
Bottom line: pick based on use case more than the spec sheet. If you tow heavy and don't want to think about it, that's one calculation. If you're a daily driver and want the cheapest path forward, that's another. Both of these will get you down the road. We're just telling you where each one is most likely to break.

What goes wrong more often on the 2025 Jeep Wrangler?
On the categories we tracked, the 2025 Jeep Wrangler doesn't show meaningfully more complaints than the 2025 Audi SQ7. The two are running close.
Which has more recalls?
The 2025 Jeep Wrangler has more active recalls (2 vs 1). Total count is less important than severity, though — a vehicle with one critical recall and zero moderate ones is generally riskier than one with five moderate recalls.
Is an extended warranty worth it on either of these?
Both vehicles are out of factory bumper-to-bumper coverage at this point. Combined repair exposure across the top problem categories runs around $0 on the higher-risk vehicle. A quality service contract typically costs $1,800–3,500 over 3 years, so a single major failure usually pays for the contract. The math favors warranty coverage on whichever vehicle you choose, especially if you plan to keep it past 100,000 miles.
