Default 2006 tbss questions, buying from dealer...please

Found a 06 tbss w 119,000 at a major dealer. First off, test drove the vehicle, check engine light came on after a half hour, dash said low oil pressure. Second heard a faint engine knock, could hear from right side wheel well. Checked oil before starting and it was full but I noticed that the oil gauge was fluctuating between 80 and 40 ( heard these gauges aren't too accurate ). Dealer told me that they would give me a 1yr 12,000 mile warranty and even sent the vehicle to a Chevy dealer to be checked as they are a jeep dealer.
Anyone w input or advice on this purchase and is it better to get this one because of the warranty. Thanks

Run like hell. That thing was most likely pieced together to trade in on something.

If you can get a helluva deal and don't mind a project go for it, but don't buy it thinking they'll honor any kind of warranty without loopholes. You'll be fixing whatever is f-ed up.

Agreed ^ I wouldn't recommend it unless you plan on spending more money to fix the problems
