2023 JLU Rubicon mechanical issues.

[BostonRubicon19]

Good morning, my first post here. I have some questions if I may ask. I’m the owner of a 2023 JLU Rubicon. I’ve now owned it for 4 months. In these 4 months it’s gone through some great stuff and not so great stuff.
1) after owning it for 3 months, factory warranty replaced my whole entire rear axle assembly. Rear diff was filled with glitter. Shavings over took the fluid.
2) then made the appointment to lift it.
3) less than a week after lifting it and maybe driving 100 miles, yesterday we noticed the steering box was leaking. Steering wheel and jeep shakes over 55 mph. I’m worried dealer will try and say that I’m lifted and voids steering box warranty.
Didn't really notice the vibration until after the lift and new steering went on though. Any help with how to learn if a 4 month old jeep will be covered or not?

Any update on this? Sorry to hear you’re having issues.

I’ve been covered under warranty for the steering box. Waiting for install appointment. All of the other issues turned out to be installation malfunction by 4wP.
1) backwards rear track bar
2) pinion angle way off
3) rear axle sticks out to the left almost 2” of tire
4) two of 4 tires had no weights on them
5) rear springs bowed so far from rear upper and lower control arms not aligned to specs/measurements.
6) front tie rod and drag link jamb nuts were hand tight. They all loosened up.
7) front brake line brackets hanging and scratching the yellow powder coating off my LCA.
Took to different 4wP shop. They are repairing, replacing and refunding me for the damages done. I’ve since spoke with regional and we have a game plan to accomplish all of this. I’ll know by Friday what is needed or has been fixed ti get everything squared away.

Jeep has been repaired. Rear control arms were measured to spec. Causing rear springs and pinion to correct itself. It’s all good. My 2023 JLU Rubi looks and drives great.
