After 18 months of ownership I just discovered the center console can be locked with the key.
How can you do that?

The hover dial next to the light switch. I always forget about it until after I have recovered. Such is life.

For me, the fact that the Sirius/XM radio has that "Replay" feature.
How do you use the Replay? Does it stay on or do you activate it after each song?

Thx!



I love the keyless proximity entry. Sounds lame, but whatever. I love it.
It isn't lame! I love that feature since I can put the fob in my pocket and not have to mess with it locking and unlocking the Jeep. They are expensive to replace, so keeping it in your pocket/purse might avoid dropping/damaging it. I think it's one of the best options Jeep offers. :like:

I've never even noticed that! Thanks
Took me 18 months to notice it, and until I found it I always found it ridiculous that it didn’t lock. Haha.

The frame mounted rearview mirror was a good catch. My 90's Honda had one. The mirror kept falling off of the YJ and I gave up on it.
I didn't ask for proximity key, but it was included and I love it.
For me, the most overlooked feature is the soft top. I live in area with great weather, and very few have soft tops, let alone open them up. Infinitely more fun.

For me, the fact that the Sirius/XM radio has that "Replay" feature. Yes, it's nice to be able to go back and listen to a song from the beginning, but the absolute BEST part is that, on all of your Favorite stations, the songs automatically start at the beginning when you switch to that station! I can go through all 10 stations, and it's always on the first part of the song.

I've had XM since ~2003 (maybe?), and have listened to the last half of my favorite songs thousands of times. Now, because it's always at the beginning of the song when I switch stations, I'm hearing the beginnings of the songs.

And, unlike many other great features (aux switches, easily removable top/doors, etc.), this is a feature that I appreciate every 3-5 minutes while driving!
ME personally, mine is the fact you can engage the rear locker in 4H If you know the secret sequence of buttons to push ;). It's in the manual. But if you're in 4H you hit offroad+, then hold your traction control button to turn it and the esc off, then you can lock up the rear axle.

Is that just a diesel thing?

That's the feature both my husband and I will be very happy about. I'm tired of pulling a handle of a locked passenger door when my husband forgets to start fishing out the fob out of his pockets while we approach our (old) car.

And for those who hate this feature, on p. 28 of the manual it says "Passive Entry may be programmed on/off within the Uconnect Settings".
