After being at the body shop for 26 days, they repainted all 4 doors and the hood. The paint came out perfect and matches the rest of our Jeep. Hoping the issue does not come back or even worse, starts in a new area such as the tailgate (that's where our friend's '20 is blistering).
I know...
Totally agree here. Not a problem with the concept of using aluminum, rather Jeep figuring out how to do it correctly. I have a 2015 all-aluminum F-150 (first year they switched over) and it is now coming up on 8 years and the paint is perfect. Are you listening Jeep......it is possible if...
Wife just got from the dealership. We have an appt for the repairs in January at a local body shop that the dealership has been using. I just pray that everything matches when all is said and done. If it wasn't for this stupid blistering, we have the most beautiful black paint job on our Rubicon.
Wondering who determines if they will do a repaint or replace the doors, hood and rear door as was done for one of the posters. Ours is blistering everywhere including at the bottom of the doors. Ours is a '19 with 19K miles.
The sad thing is, it's not the fact that these items are aluminum...
I also told Quadratec, that their MSRP price comparison quote on a fully loaded 3.6 Rubicon was a little on the low side in their video. Rob said $54K. Our '19 Rubi sticked at almost $59k with every option but the turbo 2.0. That brings the price difference down to just under $20K.
Still way...
So when that issue happened that day, I shut off the Jeep when I got home and the speedo stayed at 11 mpg. I started it up and it did the sweep and went back to 11 mph. The next day when I got into the Jeep, I could see the speedo was back down to zero. All was normal then and it hasn't...
I had the auxiliary gauges displayed yesterday in the off road pages.
I noticed the voltage was reading 14.2v when driving and after ESS shut the engine off, it dropped to 12.2v. I thought that was quite a drop but maybe it's normal. As soon as the engine started up it went right back to 14.2v.
This morning I'm driving in a 35 mph zone and I've got someone right on my ass. I look down at my analog speedo and I'm doing 51. Then I think to myself, it doesn't feel like I'm going that fast. I look at the digital speedo and it says 40. Wtf? I come to a stop at the next light at the...
Just don't expect more towing capacity with the diesel than the 3.6L and as a matter of fact, it is less. TFL Trucks just did a video on the upcoming diesel for the Gladiator and while it's 7,000lbs for a Rubicon with the 3.6L, it's only 6,500 with the diesel. Most likely because the Diesel...
Interesting story on the events that lead up to the chase. Wow!!

My problem is it's technically not even my Jeep, rather hers.
My daughter told me yesterday that they other day, she and my wife were stopped at a light. A 4X4 pickup with two guys pull up next to them. The one guy smiles and says to my wife, "I love your husband's Jeep!" My wife looked at...
Just received Quadratec's new summer catalog in the mail yesterday. They featured Quadratec's new tubular doors. They look awesome and come with free mirrors. Anyone have any experience with these? Thanks.
