The phenomenally successful Jeep Wrangler continues to be the vehicle of choice for customers wanting
more fun and adventure. For the 2009 model year, it receives several enhancements. A right-hand-drive
four-door Wrangler Unlimited X model is now available. Trailer Sway Control is now included as part of
the optional Trailer Tow Group. It helps stabilize the vehicle and trailer, contributing to increased towing
safety. Hill Start Assist is now standard on all models. It automatically maintains brake pressure when the
driver releases the brake pedal while driving uphill. This provides additional time for the driver to transition
from brake to throttle by preventing the vehicle from rolling backward. The posted fuel tank capacity on
four-door Unlimited models has been revised to 22.5 gallons from last year’s 21.6 gallons. The Sunrider
®
Soft Top is now standard on all models. Introduced in mid-2008, two optional Mopar Chrome Groups and a
Mopar Leather Group continue on for 2009. These Mopar accessory groups are conveniently installed onto
the vehicle prior to dealership delivery. Cosmetic changes include new Sunburst Orange Pearl and Deep
Water Blue Pearl exterior colors.

2009 WRANGLER/WRANGLER UNLIMITED WHAT’S NEW FOR 2009
THE MARKET
In 2007 the all new Jeep
®
Wrangler and Wrangler
Unlimited blazed a trail to the top of the sales charts.
Offering a more comfortable ride, more spacious
interiors, more open-air confi gurations and more high-
quality standard features, these SUVs also benefi ted
from smart and aggressive value pricing. Customers
noticed, and purchased Wrangler and Wrangler
Unlimited models in record numbers. Wrangler
Unlimited was especially important, because it
opened a whole new market by offering 5-passenger
seating and more cargo versatility with its four doors.
Expect 2009 to continue the success and be another
banner year.
WRANGLER
2009 Jeep Wrangler continues to be the vehicle of
choice for customers wanting to have more fun and
adventure. Traditional Wrangler customers cover
a broad spectrum, from Gen Xers to Boomers.
Regardless of age, they share a young mind-set
and value fun and freedom.
Several improvements introduced in 2007 make the
ride much more enjoyable than before. The stiffer
frame, quieter cabin, more comfortable seating, two
different top options and the availability of luxuries,
such as uconnect gps,* enhance the adventure,
whether tooling around town or turning off-road and
heading for the hills.
So who does Wrangler compete against? It is unique
in the market. In fact, 80 percent of its owners never
even consider buying anything different. For the small
number of buyers who do cross-shop, the most direct
competitor for Wrangler is the Toyota FJ Cruiser,
although Nissan Xterra and Hummer H3 also may
receive consideration.
WRANGLER UNLIMITED
Jeep Wrangler Unlimited — introduced in 2007 —
strengthened the model lineup tremendously. As the
rst-ever 4-door Wrangler, it was big enough and
versatile enough to be a practical, everyday vehicle.
This fulfi lled a fantastic opportunity by attracting
customers who never considered Wrangler because it
was seen as fun but impractical. Wrangler Unlimited
combined the off-road leadership, open-air-fun and
unparalleled heritage with the comfort, convenience
and cargo capacity so important to the broader
segment of the market. Additionally, in areas of the
country where four-wheel drive is not popular or
necessary, Wrangler Unlimited offered a two-wheel-
drive version, providing a great value for people
looking for open-air fun and a cool image, but not
needing off-road capability.
Wrangler Unlimited appeals to young couples who
need room for passengers and cargo but also want
to experience Wrangler’s sense of adventure. It
also appeals to older individuals who are young at
heart, and for whom two-door Wranglers did not
offer enough cargo space or passenger room. As far
as competitors are concerned, Wrangler Unlimited
competes with Toyota FJ Cruiser just as two-door
Wrangler does, while Nissan Xterra and Hummer H3
are more serious contenders to Unlimited. Wrangler
Unlimited fulfi lls everyone’s dreams, regardless of age
because Unlimited is built for adventure.
RUBICON AND UNLIMITED RUBICON
Once the pavement is left behind, Wrangler Rubicon
and Unlimited Rubicon, named for the famous
Rubicon Trail in California, are in command of the
wilderness. An uncompromising off-road SUV that is
still fun for cruising, Wrangler has no comparison and
certainly no equal as evidenced by both its capability
and refi nement.
Rubicon equipment is literally “over the top.” Its
integrated off-road factory package includes Tru-Lok
®
locking front and rear differentials for extreme traction;
a Rock-Trac
®
4:1 low-range transfer case and front
and rear Next Generation Dana 44 heavy-duty axles
with a 4:10:1 axle ratio for extreme rock crawling;
an electronic front sway-bar disconnect for extreme
articulation; and giant 32-inch-tall (LT 255/75R 17)
BF Goodrich
®
Off-Road tires for extreme ground
clearance. This premier off-road package is a great
value because it eliminates the cost and risk of
aftermarket hardware vehicle modifi cations. Unlimited
Rubicon provides four-wheel-drive enthusiasts the
same off-road capability of Rubicon along with
additional room for more passengers and more cargo.

2009 WRANGLER/WRANGLER UNLIMITED SUVPS THREE-MINUTE DRILL
Taking ownership of a new vehicle is a
signifi cant event for your customer. The goal of
Delivery is to make certain the customer is
completely satisfi ed with the vehicle and excited
about owning it. There are two steps in
this process:
• Reinforce the wisdom of their
purchase decision
• Make sure the customer fully understands how
to operate their vehicle
To support their purchase decision, remind them
of all the features that make their vehicle unique.
By reviewing these features and their benefi ts,
you can make a product advocate out of
your customer.
The second step is to demonstrate features.
Show how a feature operates, then ask the
customer to perform the same operation to be
sure they understand it.

Always sit properly in the seat with the seat belt fastened. Children 12 and under should always be in the backseat using an infant or child restraint system or the seat belt positioned
correctly for the child’s age and weight.
(3)
No system, no matter how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice and other
conditions can affect. When the ESP warning lamp in the speedometer fl ashes, the driver needs to use less throttle and adapt speed and driving behavior to prevailing road conditions.
Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Always wear your seat belt.

Not compatible with aftermarket fabric-protecting coatings.

DRIVER SIDE
WRANGLER FEATURES/FUNCTIONS CUSTOMER BENEFITS
ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)*
Compares the driver’s intended course with the
vehicle’s actual course and then compensates
for differences
Senses when a vehicle is starting to spin (oversteer)
or plow (understeer)
Helps to correct the vehicle’s course by
automatically adjusting the throttle and applying the
brakes at individual wheel
Automatically helps/assists driver in maintaining
control of vehicles during extreme steering
maneuvers
Provides added driving confi dence, particularly
in rain and snow
ELECTRONIC ROLL MITIGATION (ERM)
Monitors the driver’s steering wheel input and the
speed of the vehicle to sense the potential for
wheel lift
Detects when the sudden buildup of lateral force
during a severe turn or evasive maneuver can
cause the vehicle to start to tip
Applies the brakes with a high burst of pressure
to cause the outside tire to slip and the vehicle’s
weight to transfer back over the inside tires and
helps keep all four tires solidly on the ground
A component of the ABS/ESP* system
Provides an enhancement to the Electronic Stability
Program* to help reduce the likelihood of a vehicle
side rollover
Reduces the chance of a rollover in sudden
maneuvers and evasive events
Provides additional security and confi dence by
keeping all four wheels solidly on the ground
Especially useful in vehicles with a higher center
of mass
ALL SPEED TRACTION CONTROL
Monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of the
driven wheels
Applies brake pressure to the slipping wheel(s)
and reduces engine power to provide enhanced
acceleration and stability
Controls the wheel spin across a driven axle (similar
to limited-slip differential)
If one wheel on a driven axle is spinning faster
than the other, the system will apply the brake
and slow down that wheel
Allows more engine torque to be successfully
applied to the wheel if it is not spinning
Helps reduce wheel slip as the vehicle
is accelerating
Provides increased driving confi dence on all road
surfaces, but especially on sand and gravel, as well
as wet and snowy roads
