Video: JLUR leaves new owner stranded on PA Turnpike

[TXRubicon]

Just saw this posted to a FB group. Hope these aren't anything major. Chalk it up to early build woes, I suppose.

I feel for the guy, but who does he think is watching a 48 minute video about his broken down Jeep?

Lol. I watched 30 seconds and then realized how long the video was. Ain't nobody got tone for that.

Hah yeah I watched the first 2 minutes and closed it. Didn't even realize it was 48 minutes long.

I watched up until the bear in the back seat comment. I think I know why their Jeep wanted to go back home now LOL. Broke Back Turnpike

Yes that's a joke, butt seriously that sucks. Yes that was another one.

purely a guess but I think its a park sensor issue, like he put it in park at the toll booth but the Jeep isn't really registering its in park and therefore not starting....just a wild guess, but if I were him I would have tried to shift it to drive/neutral and then back into park to see what happens, either way that is No good.

Ouch. With 25 miles too.

It'll be interesting to hear the outcome.

Unhook the battery, wait a few minutes, hook it back up. You’re driving a computer.

It was a livestream.

It was our jl. No big deal they took it back. Going to fix it and we will be back on the road. It happens I don't think it's anything that speaks to the overall reliability of the jl. Things break and that's just part of owning something mechanical. The dealer is great to work with and took us right in without question. Took us to lunch and even offered to put us up for the night since we are 6 hours away.

Can you let us know what is was when they fix it?

LOL the best thing is that's the owner of Globex Performace, a great Jeep shop in NJ. Good dudes.

No problem.
