So dealership called me back and said it was the thermostat. He told me they have put about 20 miles on it and everything seems to be working fine. Also starting right up as it should. I asked if he checked the coolant temp sensor as I was reading in a diff thread was their issue dealing with similar issues with their Jeep. Said everything else checked out fine.Going to pick it up now. Hopefully she is good to go. Thanks for all your input
