My build was in JuneBuild date?? I wonder if they have a fix yet.
Literally just had the same issue, dealer is working on a fix right now. This is the 2nd time I had to take the JL back for some nonsense. fml.Hello group!
I have a bright white rubicon and I noticed my grille is turning yellow. The yellow may be due to heat or sun exposure but either way it shouldn’t happen especially within the three months I have had the new JL. Can anyone provide info or possible solutions? Thanks
Wow thank you so much Rhinebeck01 I really appreciate it. Once we get through all this rain I will give it a shot.@JerseyJeepGirl
Here is the info you will need in regard to a remedy (hopefully) of the streaks on the plastic windows of your soft top:

Hello JerseyJeepGirl,Folks I'm so happy I caught this thread on the issue of the front grill yellowing. I have a brand new White 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport JL which I purchased back in late July. I take impeccable care of my Jeep. While washing it the other day I too noticed the grill yellowing!! It only has about 2,200 miles on it now. Thought it was just me but clearly based on everything I have read here it's not. I have already reported some other issues to JeepCare and they have a ticket number started for my warranty related issues that I have reported thus far so I will call them back again on Monday to report this issue as well. My Jeep goes to the dealer for my warranty related issues on Monday, September 17th so I will keep everyone posted.
Long story short, I bought my new Jeep while on vacation in the Outer Banks in North Carolina this past July. When I got back to New Jersey from my vacation I made an appointment at my local Jeep dealer to have them look at my warranty related issues. Showed up for my appointment a few weeks ago and the service department reviewed my issues and immediately told me I had to go back to my purchasing dealer. I said really I need to drive my new Jeep 450 miles back to my purchasing dealer to have my warranty issues addressed you've got to be kidding me! I immediately contacted JeepCare when I returned from the dealership and they clearly stated that was incorrect information and I could go to any Jeep dealer for my warranty issues. JeepCare was very helpful intervening and finding me another local dealer that will handle my warranty related issues which I greatly appreciated.
The other warranty related issues that I have already reported to JeepCare which I am curious if anyone else has had is that my front and rear black bumpers have streaks and blotches on them that seem to be impregnated into the plastic that won't come out. Additionally I also have an issue with my rear and side plastic windows that have vertical streaks on them that just won't come out. Noticed that pretty much from day one. Bought Plexus plastic cleaner which was highly recommended on this site hoping that it would do the trick but no luck the streaks seem to me impregnated into the plastic.
I'm a first time Jeep owner and overall love my Jeep. At this point I can only just hope that Jeep does me right after the money I paid for my Jeep and they take care of all of my issues under warranty!!
I will keep everyone posted on the outcome of my visit to the dealership on September 17th!

Lamar,Hello JerseyJeepGirl,
Just wanted to reach out to you; Were you able to follow up with your care manager regarding you Jeep’s grill?

So.......1300 miles later, add me to the list now tooMine isn't here yet, it's still in transit from the factory, but this is all quite disturbing. I can concede to some new technology acting funny on a brand new platform, that's almost a given. But, white plastic grilles turning yellow is something I wouldn't expect from Jeep considering they have had plastic colored grills for over a decade.
