Performance & Capability

Under the hood of this rugged Sport Utility is the legendary Pentastar 3.6L V-6 DOHC engine, delivering a robust 285HP. This aluminum engine block is paired with a 5-Speed Automatic Transmission featuring Lock-up transmission and Overdrive for smooth highway cruising during those 40-mile commutes to the Chicago metro area. When the Indiana winters bring unpredictable lake-effect snow, the Command-Trac part-time 4WD system and Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle provide the confidence you need to stay moving.

The mechanical integrity of this Wrangler is further bolstered by a Normal Duty Suspension and the Quadra-Coil standard ride suspension system. It utilizes a Dana 44 rigid axle rear suspension and a leading link front suspension to soak up bumps on rural roads near Columbia Center, IN. For those who enjoy a more engaged driving experience, the Autostick Sequential shift control allows for manual gear selection, while the Engine oil cooler and Transmission fluid temp warning systems keep the vitals in check during heavy use.

Technology & Connectivity

In an age where staying connected is a priority, this Wrangler Unlimited Freedom offers the Connectivity Group, ensuring you are never out of touch. The Handsfree Uconnect w/Bluetooth® allows for seamless wireless device connectivity, so you can take calls or stream music without taking your hands off the Leather steering wheel. The 6.5 inch primary display features a Primary monitor touchscreen for intuitive control of your media, supported by Voice activated audio controls for enhanced safety.

Entertainment is a core part of the Jeep experience. This model includes DVD-audio playback capability and a Remote USB Port for your external devices. With Steering wheel mounted audio controls, you can easily cycle through your favorite playlists or adjust the volume while keeping your eyes on the road. The Analog instrumentation display is complemented by an Exterior temperature display, keeping you informed of the shifting weather patterns common across the South Bend, IN region.

Comfort & Interior

Inside, you will find a refined cabin featuring Cloth and leather front seat upholstery in a sleek Black finish. The Heated Front Seats are a welcome luxury during chilly Midwest mornings, providing immediate warmth for both the driver and front passenger. The interior is designed for practicality and convenience, featuring Manual climate control, Power door locks with 2 stage unlocking, and Power first-row windows with Front 1-Touch Down functionality.

Versatility is key for families, and the 60-40 folding rear seats allow you to expand the cargo area for sports gear or home improvement supplies. The cabin is equipped with a 115V Auxiliary Power Outlet and an interior 120V AC power outlet, perfect for charging laptops or small appliances during a camping trip. Storage is abundant with a Locking floor console storage and Concealed cargo storage in the rear. Every detail, from the Chrome/leather Wrapped Shift Knob to the Silver Interior Accents, reflects a commitment to quality and style.

Safety & Driver Assistance

Safety is paramount, and this 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Freedom is equipped with a comprehensive suite of protective features. The 4-Wheel Disc Brakes are enhanced by a Four channel ABS brakes system and Brake assist, ensuring reliable stopping power even in slippery conditions. For families traveling with younger passengers, the Manual rear child safety door locks provide peace of mind.

The vehicle is built with Dual front impact airbags and an Airbag occupancy sensor to manage deployment based on the passenger's presence. The Ventilated brakes on both the front and rear help dissipate heat during prolonged braking, maintaining consistent performance. This structural and mechanical focus on safety ensures that whether you are navigating city traffic or suburban intersections, you and your passengers are well-protected.

The 17 x 7.5-inch silver aluminum wheels and Body Color Fender Flares provide a premium look that bridges the gap between rugged utility and suburban style.

Practical exterior features include Front fog lights for improved visibility in murky weather and Two front tow hooks for added utility. The Trailer Tow Group with a Class II Receiver Hitch and Trailer sway control makes it easy to bring along a small boat or utility trailer for a weekend at the lake.
