In addition to the build sheet which is on DC's computer, if buying from a Jeep dealer a friendly service advisor can pull up the warranty claim history on his computer. This won't show routine service or non-warranty repairs and may be less useful for higher mileage vehicles, but if something has been torn apart multiple times, at least you'll know.

I read somewhere that the inline
