Update: So the tow truck showed up. Jump starting didn’t help. Engine isn’t even turning over. It will need to towed to the dealership.

Damn, sorry to hear that. I hope it gets sorted out quickly.Well I guess I jinxed myself. Drive to the grocery store this morning. Get back to the Jeep and it won’t start. Radio works. Doors lock and unlock. So there’s some power. But when I hit the start button, nothing happens.
Checked the starter fuse and it seems fine. Even swapped it with the spare and still won’t start. Waiting for roadside assistance right now.
x2, and my frame welds are very good and steers just fine, wood knocked6,000 miles and no issues - wood knocked.
I was about to add to this thread stating that one should expect a flaw of some sort on any new vehicle but that it's acceptable as long as it doesn't leave you stranded.Well I guess I jinxed myself.

I had the same thought. I've never seen the manual release not work.If the manual park release isn't working, you're either doing it wrong, or something is very, very wrong with your jeep.
I'm GLAD someone finally asked this question other than complaining about every little picayune problem. I have had no issues with mine and mine was an early 2018 #119467 Rubicon. I've had 3 oil changes (and none were overfilled by the service department), they addressed recalls if applicable and fixed the roof seal between the 2 freedom tops that I screwed up at no charge. I have customized many things but I have not done anything with suspension or monster tires. I did add Fuel Assault wheels 9" wide which makes the 33" K02's look larger and pertinent to the vehicle. I'm amazed and shocked by some of the issues that people find they need to complain about that has more to do with inexperience and bitching about everything. Thanks so much for asking "one of the majority" of the folks that have had no issues with their new JL. CharlieFirst time Jeep owner. In fact, first time North American car owner. Just reading these threads and am getting paranoid. Particularly with the ESS and battery issues.
I've had my 2019 JLU for almost three weeks now and put around 1000 kms (600 miles) on it. So far (knock on wood) no issues other than water from the gutter dripping into the cabin when I opened the door in the rain.
So how many of you have had zero issues with your JL?

Define "flawless"
After 9 months and about 9k miles, only minor issues have been a wayward GPS (dealer recalibrated) and a noisy passenger seat (still waiting for resolution). Love the Wrangler (my first) and can't see driving anything else as my daily. The 2.0T has been great with combined mileage of 20-ish with ESS in active mode most of the time. I don't know if you would consider the money black hole a flaw (my wife might have some words to say about that ) but I think I've stopped hemorrhaging funds quite so much. But other than the couple of niggles above she's been flawless in every respect.
