Haven't had one issue yet. This morning upon starting I notice my odometer says 999,999.
Uhm, shut it down. Restarted and it's back to normal. .. .weirdness

Easy fix. Dealer needs to do an update, and you'll be home in an hour (if the dealer is competent)

Ex-auto quality engr & mgt. Now just enjoy life.
I saw in a movie once where this kid put a Ferrari on blocks, put it in reverse, and let it run backwards to remove those unwanted miles. It might take awhile but you could try that if nothing else works.:LOL:

Dealer flash or push in all fuses and find the ECU ground strap, temp remove, scrape area and reinstall.

Seems the ground area on Jeep was painted and not getting properly grounded.

Did you just shut it down, restart, and it fixed itself? Jeeps are awesome at that. But if you didn't move it, that's even weirder - not only is the mileage off, but so is the compass, clock, trip mileage, everything...how bizarre!

My wife's JLU Sport had mild electrical hiccup from new, where the panel that controls the defroster/radio volume/etc. would randomly energize a few seconds to sometimes almost a minute after starting the Jeep, so initially all adjustments needed to be made with the touch screen. Other times it was fine so I didn't bother the dealer with it. Anyway, I recently installed the Quadratec 12v accessory plug to add a USB charger by the back seat, so I had the battery disconnected for a decent amount of time. I had to unplug that panel to run the harness down by the lighter. After putting the dash back together and reconnecting the battery, the initial startup on the screen said "Rubicon" (WTF?) but then corrected itself. And the once-intermittent panel has also fixed itself, and lights up right away with the rest of the dash.

It righted itself and all has been well thus far
