  1. Newest noob in the herd!

    That and "which angry grill would look best on my Jeep?"
  2. The NEW North American operations leader for the Jeep brand is NOW William Peffer Jr, who was Maserati brand's North American regional leadership.

    If he does that, it will fail miserably. Think Jeep Dealerships. Upscale customers will not tolerate lousy service and piss poor service manager attitudes. Upscale buyers will jump to another brand immediately after the first display of attitude or the first "we don't know how to fix it"
  3. Clutch Issue, Class Action Filed

    Winner winner winner. Stellantis gives owners $100.00 off MSRP coupon on purchase of 2024-2025 Wrangler to settle suit. Lawyers walk away with $19,000,000.00 in settlement.
  4. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Y07 - The second of 3 NHTSA Recalls on my Jeep, sort of confirms what you said. IMPORTANT: This clutch defect may look similar to a previous clutch defect you were contacted about. Please note that this is a new safety recall for a different issue. Your vehicle will need to have this safety...
  5. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    All is well and forgiven. Lord only knows how many effups I've made.:beer::beer::beer:
  6. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    I think they are doing a gradual rollout so they don't get overwhelmed. They are probably going in an order to get the sale holds fixed first, and then working backward model year by model year. There also might be minor differences in the replacement parts for earlier years that already had...
  7. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    This is all nice for an approximation, and without a temperature sensor it can't really know overheating is occurring, so the software is just making an educated guess. I'm not sure I want guesswork slowing me down if I am doing a freeway merge or other higher speed maneuver.
  8. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Nope. 19A is for all JL manual transmissions from 2018 on. My Jeep previously had W12 completed March of 2020 and Y07 in January 2021 done. Read 19A again, I believe the text is in the very first post in this thread and is also available on the NHTSA Website. 1 Unrepaired Recallsassociated...
  9. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    My Jeep has had two prior NHTSA safety recalls done for the clutch. One was a software update that somehow detected higher than normal clutch temperatures and detuned the engine if slippage was detected. I don't know how it did that, there are no sensors for that. Since mine is a 2018, and...
  10. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Just my luck. Should I have the shop return the one I just got and reorder next week?:devil:
  11. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    This is my fix. Arrived at my shop today. Install scheduled for Dec. 6th. Can't wait.
  12. Carvana's offer for my Jeep dropped 27% in one month

    Deduct $15,000.00 for ugly angry grill.
  13. Who's still rockin' a 2018?

    Bought mine used in 2021. Original owner was @Kadonny 41K miles now. Fixed steering with newer Mopar track bar and the steering pump, also did the Mopar LCA install - what a job. Preemptively did the sun visor fix. Added a Badland 12K winch and Warn solenoid kit for the winch. Will be...
  14. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    @Actman I was origninally going to go with the CFII. Then the recall was issued and I decided to wait to see what the Stellantis solution is. Many months later, there is still no solution. So I have decided to move ahead with a 3rd party fix. Your thoughtful contributions to this thread and...
  15. Badland APEX 12k winch positive battery lead relocation mod question

    I would rather not have constant power going to the winch, so I opted for the Warn 62132 kit and run it off of my AUX3 switch (I have the factory tow package and factory aux switches). I chose not to go with the included Badlands switch. WARN 62132 Power Interrupt Kit with Battery Lead...
  16. New 2024 Wrangler Winch Bumper in person -- closeup photos

    Take out two plastic rivets on each side - at least on my 2018 - and then they are just clipped on and come off easy. They go on easy, too. You will need plastic rivets and a cheapo rivet tool from evilzon or Harbor Freight to do the job. The rivet tool is handy for the plastic wheel well...
  17. New 2024 Wrangler Winch Bumper in person -- closeup photos

    Not hard to replace. Easier if you pull the wings off the steel bumper. I replaced one on my 2018 that got roughed up, easy job.
  18. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    Where did you get the kit with the button popper, etc.?
  19. Best ever license plate?

    Mach Schnell. You left a letter out, I guess NJ only lets you have 6 letters.
