Blast WD40 into the pin mechanism. That worked for me and going on 300 miles with no squeaks.

Update on the Starbucks straw trick... it worked for awhile and now the squeak slowly came back. So that definitively rules out the metal on metal scraping with the latch and pin. This time I just sprayed WD-40 into the pin mechanism and that seems to have done the trick (for now). I am pretty...

@sbco - Try the fix I mentioned a few posts above if you have squeaking. Sounds like the paint chipping is a problem with carelessness at the dealership.

I think there must have been some known issue about squeaking coming from those removable windows. Earlier today when I applied my drinking straw fix I noticed that one of the handles and locking brackets had a clear adhesive film applied where the two parts could potentially rub together. It...

So for anyone else having this issue, I found a quick and dirty solution that seems to completely fix this issue, at least for me. Like others have said I believe the squeaking is the metal pin scraping against the metal plate it locks into. So basically we need to prevent the metal on metal...

Same issue here. The noise is unbearable, like nails on a chalkboard. I would love to see a Jeep service bulletin about this issue and what the recommended fix is.

Sometimes I leave my phone plugged in the center console and sometimes I want it mounted centered above the infotainment system. I wanted something I could easily remove when not in use, so here’s what I came up with. I removed the clips from a Bracketron RoadTripper, superglued magnets to the...

Just picked up my new 2019 Wrangler MOAB from Travis at Tri-City Jeep in Eden, NC. They are sponsors here and advertised 7% under invoice - which was honored with zero sales pressure what-so-ever. Even the nice lady in charge of financing didn't try to sell any add ons. - 7% under invoice with...

I Status crisis averted! I am in KZ status now. Order Date: 4/24 VIN Assigned: 4/25 D1 Status: 4/29 F Status: 5/4 I Status: 5/5 (assumed based on future info provided) Build Sheet: 5/6 J Status: 5/8 JB Status: 5/11 I Status: 5/13 (9 days...) I Status: 5/15 (11 days...) I Status: 5/16 (12...

Another Charlottean! I ordered my Jeep from Travis @ Tri-City as well. I am still waiting for it to ship out which should hopefully be any day. Travis is AWESOME. I tried working with local dealerships and they just gave me the runaround saying they couldn't come close to what Travis was...

I have a question for you Jeep ordering veterans who have already gone through the ordering process before. Is it normal to jump between I Status and JB Status during a build? If so, what is actually happening during this process? I couldn't find any examples of this on the forums. All of the...

I feel this shaping up to be a horror story... Ordered on 4/24. As of today Jeep Chat confirmed I am in "I" status and have been for 11 days and could not explain or provide any info on previous statuses. This info conflicts with previous updates when i was told I was in "J" and then "JB"...

Yeah I'm not sure what "Not OKed" means. I thought that just meant it hasn't gone through the final inspection yet. I posted this in another topic, but my jeep went from J -> JB -> I according to my conversations with the Jeep chat reps. I suspect that theres a separate inspection needed after...

Does anyone know if orders will keep moving if they are past a certain status? Mine is currently in "I" status and I'm wondering if it will also be held up during the shutdown.

I'm getting all kinds of mixed statuses every few days. Not sure if this is normal or not. Previously I was told I was in "J" status, then "JB", but now I am back in "I" status and the the rep says it shows I have been in "I" status for 11 days which conflicts with the previous updates I...

Order Date: 4/24 VIN Assigned: 4/25 D1 Status: 4/29 F Status: 5/4 Build Sheet: 5/6 J Status: 5/8 JB Status: 5/11 Really hoping I don't get stuck in JB status. Fingers crossed that the extras aren't subject to the shutdown. I did notice this on my build sheet though: "Special Scheduling...

I believe retooling for next years models, but others may be more familiar than I. Someone posted an FCA work schedule calendar in another thread: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/end-of-2019-orders-and-start-of-2020.24957/#post-593900

I have been checking in every few days and noticed that the chat reps will give canned responses without the codes. They will tell you the code if you ask them though. Order Date: 4/24 VIN Assigned: 4/25 D Status: 4/26 D1 Status: 4/29 Fingers crossed my Jeep gets built before the shutdown...
