CHECK YOUR OIL LEVELS FOLKS. Just had to update the thread with this newest absurdity from the dealership. They readily admit they put 6 quarts of oil in the Jeep last oil change. But the best part is that the service tech has been arguing with me for 2 days about whether or not the Jeep takes...

Sounds like a lot of dealerships are putting 6 quarts of oil in these engines when doing the routine oil change, but the JL's take 5 quarts. This is what happened to me, and in my case, my dealership is so incredibly obtuse that they are still INSISTING that it takes 6 quarts even after I sent...

I can't find the service report...still looking tho. It makes sense why they might have incorrectly put an extra quart in, but after 1500 miles it's hard to believe it's STILL that high if it was only 1 extra quart to begin with. I can't tell how much extra is in there from the dipstick. My...

That's a good question - there's no writing that says "max" on it and nothing in the manual to explain either. But I assume it needs to be within the crosshatched area - the indented portion of the bottom part of the dipstick. They are indeed stupid dipsticks, but if the dealership can't read...

2018 JL, got first free oil change about 1500 miles ago. I never have checked the oil after the dealership changes it, it just never occurred to me that the dealership could possibly perform such a basic task incorrectly. However, I checked the oil last night cold and this morning after running...

Thanks Darlene! I did reply to someone with the VIN yesterday or the day before. Just waiting on a response.

Having same issue. JL, new in June, 6500 miles on it now. First noticed it Nov. 2 when I thought I got a flat tire (going 70MPH on freeway), I started to pull over and the wobble went away. It's happened numerous times since then, feels like it's getting worse. Happened today, worst wobble yet...

So yep - all were right. It was the dealer - they admitted this was the first JL they have had to work on and they messed up. They were very honest, straightforward and apologetic. They took care of me. It seems their initial assessment was right - the battery cables were not connected properly...

Just got a call from dealer, they claim there were several fuses blown and that once replaced, the Jeep is working. They are going to test it some more and send it home tomorrow if all is well. They have “no idea” why the fuses blew.

I’m not sure what they did or didn’t do with the aux battery. They did install the wiring. You may be right - maybe this is a simple issue where they only disconnected the main battery, which when restarted, caused the computer to crash. When I got it home, before it completely died, I had the...

Wondering if you ever figured out what was wrong? My jeep was doing this for a few days and then suddenly died completely at a stop light. It was towed to the dealership where it's being looked at now.

I hope you're right! Sounds an awful lot like other issues people have had on here with the new JL's. The ESS was definitely acting a little strange prior to this, which I just thought was something I needed to get used to. Now I'm wondering if it was a symptom. For example, I would get an error...

Just had a bad issue with my brand new JL. Bought it Monday, took it in today (Thursday, 3 days later!) to have hitch installed. On my way home from the dealer, I was stopped at a light, engine shut off, and she refused to restart. The computer went haywire, saying my power steering needed...
