I took my JL in for the 19A recall. I won't go in to why they need 3 days to do 5.5 hours worth of work. The dealer does an inspection as part of the recall. One of the items is brake fluid, the other is a "SGM Bypass for Recall" at $215? Does anyone know what this means? I use a Tazer JL...

It just started raining again in the PNW, and I found water pooling in the left corner closest to the driver, driver side floor mat. These are the rubber MOPAR/Jeep floormats. I have the drain plugs set up to work, with 3M door sealant around them. The carpet under the floor mat was wet. A few...

I was lucky! Zero cracks or windshield issues for 25,000 miles. So, I decided to drive the Jeep to Tuktoyaktuk, and really show that windshield who was the boss. I got one hit on the Alaska Highway, and a really nice big one on the Dempster Highway. I replaced the windshield with OEM glass when...

I picked up my Jeep the other day, and prominently displayed on my invoice was the following: IF FOR ANY REASON, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO SCORE US WITH THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE MARKS ON THE SURVEY, PLEASE LET US KNOW. - REVIEWED MULTI POINT INSPECTION - E-MAIL ADDRESS CONFIRMED - DISCUSSED...

I have been going to the dealer quite a bit lately for various recalls and TSBs. I am a HUGE fan of my Tazer JL. Feature request, and as a software guy, I realize this is a complicated one. Please add the ability to save and restore configurations. I realize this may require a desktop...

Here is the scenario: 3 instances over the previous 2 months.. Two on residential streets at ~35 mph, one on the freeway at ~60mph Service 4WD, ABS Failure, Traction control lights activate. within 30 seconds, the lights are gone. There is no discernible performance difference in the vehicle...

I have a 2018 JL with the dreaded ESS will not enable as the battery is always charging. In the beginning, I would throw the Jeep on a CTEK tender for a few days, and ESS would work. Give it a week of driving 46 miles a day, and it would fail again. The dealer replaced the AUX battery about a...

I finally took my 2018 JL into the local Kirkland dealer to have the clutch recall addressed, non working ESS system looked at, AGAIN.. and, I asked for the steering TSB as well as an annual service minus the oil change. When I called in to make the service appointment two weeks ago, I gave...

I have been critical of Rairdon's in the past, so it is only appropriate to call out that I finally had an experience with the service department that was good. Typically, I take in my Jeep. The service manager does not document what I ask to be done, even when I send it in email... cutting and...

I have the factory LED tail lights that have blind spot detection build in. The backup lights on these things are so inadequate, it is beyond stupid. I see their party options that should work, but they do not support blind spot detection,. Is anyone aware of a third party tail light that...

How long of a wait is reasonable for an “Express Oil Change”? I normally make an appointment for service. The Change Oil warning came up while I was near the dealer, so I popped in as the sign said no appointment needed. The wait was at least an hour and a half. I went to a nearby oil change...

The Alpine X409 does not have the same "Off Road Pages" mode that the Uconnect 8.4" has. However, quite a bit of the key functionality is there. First, there is this Gauges screen. The X409 does hook into the OBDII system. The gauges have a bunch of options for what they can be set to. Here is...

I purchased mine today. $2999, allowing 3 hours of labor for installation on top of that. The units should ship next week. The main unit replaces the current uconnect. There is a second unit that is the brains, which goes behind the dash below the steering wheel.

This may be one for @JeepCares. What is the policy for the tire rotation procedure that comes with Jeep Wave? I see some dealers will do 5 wheel, some say the policy as just four. I have not seen anyone claim to have seen any sort of policy. The only documentation I can find mentions two free...

Thank y'all for all the posts. I have done some research, and it looks like 4.56 for my 35" (actually, measure at 34") tires is the right application for what I am doing. Mostly highway, and some forest service road duty. Are there any gear kits to avoid? I am looking at the one from Nitro Gear...

Has anyone built a hardware interface to get into the Uconnect system? I want to understand the garbage that is the USB stack and see if I can fix it myself. I see various adapters to connect third party radios into the uconnect harness, so I think that may be a starting point. If anyone...

I did the upgrade to 11.1.4 and applied it to my 2018 JLU Sport, with the Rubicon LED fender kit (Mopar 82215743AC) that was dealer installed. I have the 7" Uconnect unit for this, With the 11.1.2 firmware, I was able to enable these lights. When I did the upgrade, I did not see any...

I found in another thread that the steering box for the JL has been revised to an AE model? Has anyone proactively had this installed? Did it make a difference to steering response?

I am still new to the Jeep experience, being about two months in. Loving the Jeep. I have been to the dealer once for the sale, again for a recall, twice for parts installations, and then three times to correct those parts installations. I have received ZERO surveys/how did we do/customer...

I am using my Tazer to set my front fender LEDs to enable. My dealer can set the VIN code to add LPY. The dealer told me it would decrease the power that goes to my non LED lights, which would dim them. At this point, on my Sport S, I am not sure I have any non LED lights left! What is this...
