Any ideas? Right turn, louder with higher speeds. Video upside down out the window, sorry for quality, but squeal is obvious. Took wheel off and confirmed nothing in brakes or nothing obviously wrong.

Road hazard, bad weather, emergency vehicle, I hate them all and I’m ready to kill someone to make them stop. Is there a way other than buying a $300 Tazer to shut these things TF up? Apparently IL invested in this tech and I can hardly get on the highway lately without 2-3 BEEP BEEP BEEP LOOK...

I received a new IPass (toll transponder, EZPass affiliate) sticker recently, they do the RFID sticker rather than a transponder. I applied it kinda sorta as instructed, but then got the nasty gram saying that the system wasn’t picking it up, they were tolling me via license plate and I needed...

Two parter, move to the correct forum as necessary. I’m tentatively planning a trip with some Internet friends to do the Rimrocker trail this summer. My Jeep is a mechanically stock 2024 Willys (ie with rear locker) 3.6L, and I’m led to believe the trail is pretty mild and I will have no...

Keeping the beagle at bay while I wait for my Culver’s.

I originally leased a 2018 Sport S in August of 2018. It was my first ever Jeep after years of admiring them from afar. I loved it, and honestly should have just bought the lease out. But they were firesaleing 4xes and I got a Rubicon for a bargain price. I had that for 3 years, and I loved the...

I turned in my Rubicon 4xe lease last week, so I’ve been without a Jeep since then. I’m driving my sports car (2003 Honda S2000 with 120k miles) full time, which is fun, but I can’t take both my kids in it and my wife can’t drive the sports car (stick shift) so we’ve been doing some creative...

I had a MORE dead pedal in my 2021, which I liked, but apparently no more holes in the 2024. I’m not interested in trying to drill my own (I’m a big dude, I could barely reach down there to install the MORE, I’m not convinced I could accurately drill in the footwell), so what alternatives are...

I ordered my Jeep on 5/24, as of today, almost 2 weeks later, it has yet to move to “scheduled” on the Jeep online tracker. Is this common? Or is the tracker unreliable? My last two Jeeps (2018, 2021) were both about 3 weeks from order to delivery so this seems a lot slower. Or are my...

My lease is up in a month. I’m 5k under my miles so I thought I’d go to CarMax and see if they were interested in buying it out. I’ve got a 2021 Rubicon, everything but metal bumpers and the safety group and leather. Sticker was $60k on the nose at time of lease. Buyout is $37,xxx. CarMax...

Wrangler Willy’s 4dr, convenience, tech, hardtop, in Anvil. The addition of a rear locker really makes the Willy’s an appealing package if you don’t need whole hog Rubicon, like I don’t. Excited to get back to simple V6/8AT from my 4xe.

My second Wrangler lease (2018 Sport, 2021 Rubicon 4xe) is ending this summer. I’m starting to think about what I want to do next. I’ve enjoyed my time in Wranglers, but increasingly I’m doing little to no off-roading (I live in the suburbs of Chicago). I do enjoy taking the doors and top off...

The main thing I regret not ordering on my current Jeep is the metal bumper group. Well for 2024, your choices are either Rubicon X which has a lot of crap I don’t want, plus metal bumpers, or base Rubicon and you can only add metal bumpers + winch which I really don’t need and is $$$$. So I was...

I’m starting to think about the end of my Rubicon 4xe lease. I love the Jeep, and it’s been reasonably reliable. My older daughter (11) also loves it. So my initial thought was, I could buy it out at lease end in about 10 months, and then drive it for 4 more years and hand it off to her to...

Sorry to introduce yet another DW post but at this point searching for it brings up information overload and it’s hard to sift through it all. my Jeep: 21 Rubicon 4xe, completely stock as far as drivetrain/suspension goes. I’ve barely offroaded it, I take it off-road hunting but it’s just...

My wife drove my Jeep to work yesterday, probably one of the only 2-3 times she’s driven it in the 18 months I’ve owned (leased) it, and she drove my 2018 JLU Sport about as often in the 3 years I had that. Anyways, she was an OG Jeep girl, she had two XJ Cherokees (‘89 and a beautiful ‘00...

Rifle season opener Saturday in WI. A lot of the reason I have a Jeep is as a hunting support vehicle, can’t wait to get it out there. Who else??

Starting to get to the point where I’m not top down/doors off by default; the daily highs are warm enough but especially morning around 8 when I’m driving my kids to school it’s in the 40s and no one wants the top off for that. I’m thinking it’s hardtop time this weekend. Anyone else?

Hey all, I know there’s probably a pretty big overlap between Jeepers and those in a Search and Rescue capacity either amateur or pro (think Cajun Navy). Anyone know of a group of this type accepting $$ donations to help out with relief efforts? My parents live in the affected area (evacuated)...

I take my soft top windows off a lot and leave them in my garage for several days at a time. I leave them laying flat(ish) on my workbench but this isn’t a great solution. I have the Mopar soft top storage bag but it’s annoying to use, and as a result I almost never do except when I store the ST...
