The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

I wasn’t sure why I needed this to be a PDF, but it was apparent once I got it. It includes what would be thousands of pages if it were in print. The links take you to wherever you need to go in the text.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

The 2013 Jeep Wrangler factory service and repair manual is matched to this exact model year, engine, and trim, so what you follow is correct for the vehicle in front of you and not a neighboring year that looks identical on paper.

Known issues on the 2013 Wrangler. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year: a separated or severed seat belt buckle strap that leaves the seat belt inoperable, a liner that can shift forward and impede the accelerator (unintended-acceleration risk), a driver's frontal air bag circuit failure that can keep the air bag from deploying in a crash, and a power-steering hose-and-connection fault that can cause a loss of transmission fluid and a loss of transmission function. Owners have filed 1,040 complaints and Jeep has issued 93 technical service bulletins for the year.

Whether you are chasing a routine service interval, an air bag circuit fault, or a hard-to-trace power-steering leak, you stay on the right specification for your specific 2013 Wrangler.

NHTSA #19V01800015/01/2019Component: AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:PASSENGER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULEDo not park indoors
