  1. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    They replaced the camshaft/rockers/lifters, which fixed my ticking. FCA finally agreed to look at the oil pan weeks later and didnā€™t find anything abnormal. Iā€™ve driven it about 1500 miles since the repair and it seems to be okay. Iā€™m still super paranoid that this thing is going to start...
  2. Does This Seem Normal (Steering Pull)

    I think it may have helped, but it still definitely wants to drift right. At least now itā€™s more subtle and easier to deal with day to day.
  3. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    Ha, I thought the same thing would love to have a Ram truck down the road, but this situation has been a huge turn off.
  4. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    Sort of. I went without a rental all last week when they had it for the camshaft because they said itā€™s not something ā€œthe dealer or FCA providesā€. Coincidentally, I got an email from Jeep Wave yesterday morning mentioning the free oil changes and same day rental it provides for the first two...
  5. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    Yeah, itā€™s been quite a week. I have a case in with FCA to see if theyā€™ll open the oil pan to find the potential glitter bomb hopefully they approve it and dig a little deeper to see if there are any more issues lurking. Found out they damaged a radiator hose when they were fixing the cams, so...
  6. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    Wow, this just keeps getting better. I got my Jeep back yesterday after they swapped out the rusty camshafts. Today I noticed that itā€™s leaking coolant. My guess is the dealer didnā€™t put something back together right after they reconnected all the coolant lines from the cam swap. Man, what a...
  7. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    This is 100% true unfortunately. I just got off the phone with the dealer and they said that since they didnā€™t find evidence of metal particles at the camshaft assembly, then the dealer would not approve taking the oil pan off and inspecting it further. They told me it would cost me about $210...
  8. Does This Seem Normal (Steering Pull)

    Interesting. I may give that a shot. That would be amazing if that worked Thanks!
  9. Does This Seem Normal (Steering Pull)

    Since they installed it backwards the first time, I doubt the did any purge techniques. I may try to disconnect it and see how it is. Thatā€™s a good point.
  10. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    Mine was the passenger side I believe.
  11. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    I'm no tech, but I think they had to disconnect the radiator when doing the repair, so they had to flush and refill. Would have been nice after all that work though if they could have just dropped the oil real quick.
  12. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    Heres the work order. They said they didn't see any metal contamination in the oil when the had that covers off... but who knows what's in the filter/pan. Hopefully this helps some of you still troubleshooting your knocking issues.
  13. Does This Seem Normal (Steering Pull)

    Mine started to do this right after the Steering stabilizer recall. They actually mounted it backwards initially, and then I went back to have them replace it and install properly, the Jeep still pulled to the right though. I just paid $99 to get it aligned today and it still drifts to the...
  14. bad camshaft and rocker arms

    My 2018 JL Sport S has been knocking/ticking for a few months. Dealer "A" said it was a normal break-in noise, didn't throw codes, it's totally fine. Finally took it to Dealer "B" to get a second opinion and they heard the issue immediately. After they cracked the engine open they found RUST on...
  15. Hill descent control

    I finally had a chance to use hill decent and it sounds like itā€™s intermittently groaning all the way. I guess this is normal? I kept wanting to turn it off because I thought something was wrong. That being said, it works great other than the noise.
  16. Superchips Flashcal Programmer out for JL Wrangler

    Noob question here, I didnā€™t see this explained in the thread. When you are saying ā€œunmarryā€, is there an unmarry option within the flashcal? Or are you simply just saying that youā€™re ā€œunpluggingā€ the flashcal?
  17. Right pull

    Any more info on this? I'd love to be able to pull a fuse and plug it back in to fix the pulling to the right.
  18. Do I cancel my new Jeep? Wheel play

    So the dealer installed the Steering Stabilizer Recall upside down. I was hoping this was the cause of the Jeep pulling right, but even after they replaced the stabilizer and installed it correctly, my Jeep is still pulling to the right... which all seemed to start right after they messed with...
  19. Do I cancel my new Jeep? Wheel play

    Yeah, I think it definitely started after they replaced that stabilizer. Iā€™ll have to take it in and see if they can sort it out. Fun.
  20. Do I cancel my new Jeep? Wheel play

    I just had the steering damper recall done on my ā€˜18 JLUS and it seems like itā€™s drifting to the right now. I also just put 33ā€™s on it around the same time so I donā€™t know if thatā€™s part of the issue? Itā€™s always had some play but drove easier with stock tires. I think the bigger heavier tires...
