JLUR delivered on May 14th. 8k miles and first oil change. No issues. Drives great and I love it! I have taken it to Broken Bow OK and all the way to Port A and loved every second.

JLUR, 3.6, auto with 3700 miles, build date 6-16-18. No problems except the steering issue. It was all over the road at first but has gotten better with more miles. It still feels a little squirley on the road...............

JLUR 3.6 automatic, 315’s, no lift. It was my second order in February, built in March and picked up in the beginning of April. Over 10k with no issues and still a big smile on my face every time I drive it. I’m actually sad when I have to drive our family Honda Odyssey. I wish my wrangler had 6 seats;)

The steering seems like a concern. Did the dealer check your ball joints? Some JLs had loose ball joints that were improperly torqued at the factory. Hopefully FCA gets the steering issue resolved soon.

I just realized no one with a 2.0 Turbo has reported in yet? It's expected though, considering the 2.0 just hit the dealers lots in late Aug. All you 2.0 owners need to put some milage on! lol.

6300. JLUR made mid April. They severed the wire to the horn when they put the steering wheel cover on at the factory, but the dealer fixed it before I took it home.

I took it to the dealer twice. First time the tech said all vehicles with big tires drives like that. Second time was told it was normal for the JL, but they put it on the rack and checked alignment which was spot on. I checked the ball joints myself and they were ok. It's gotten a lot better but its not were it should be. I just don't know what part or parts that could be breaking in and getting better, doesn't make sense. You would think it would be tight when new and get a little loose with miles, but what the hell do I know.

JLUR, 3.6 with a M/T and just hit 2,000 miles after buying in July. Backup camera still only works 50% of the time and replaced a windshield already. Other than that, no issues at all and love driving it. The clutch gets smoother to shift the more I drive and mpg averages around 18.5

Quick informal survey on FCA quality control. Who has driven over 6000 miles and have had absolutely zero problems? I mean no problems what so ever.

What model?
What engine?
What transmission?
How many miles?
Build date?

I had the U62 recall performed in June 2018 but it was proactive so I do not consider that to be a problem.
