They may question you about a wheeled bag, but it it fits the sizer (with nothing sticking out at all including straps, wheels and handles) you should be good to go.
I haven't seen gate agents checking very much and once on the plane the FAs don't seem to care where you put your stuff. The overhead bins are almost always nearly empty.
I was referring to bags that are OVER the size limit. Obviously, anything within the personal item size constraints will be allowed.
I only flew 17 or 19 segments on frontier last year. But I carried the same incredibly large bag for free on every segment without issue.
