2018 Jeep Wrangler jl
2018 JL, (6.3) The Check engine light went. on Yesterday morning, 10,500 miles.. I took it to the dealer last night and then this morning they said they were not able to start it. They said the code is a circuit 1 or 2 for the fuel pump. I asked when it will be fixed, they said its going to take time. Sounds like a electrical problem maybe? Starting to have second thought s of my purchase . Been a Toyota fan for 37 years and never once did any of my Toyotas go back to dealer. This Jeep is on its 5th Visit since November 1st @JeepCares

You mention 5th time, has it always been an electrical issue or is this the first for electrical? Mine is the 2.0L with 6900 miles and is now in the shop since Sunday 5/12. My electrical issue started with the loss of power steering to the dash lights flickering and gauges moving back and forth, engine revving and then nothing. Wouldn't start although I don't think my batteries are dead as I could still lock and unlock and turn lights on and off. I often travel to remote areas for my photography and wonder what would have happened had I been on one of those trips. Good luck with your Jeep.

Sometimes vehicles sit on dealer lots or things are left on, and the battery dies. In turn the battery is recharged. If this happens multiple times the battery becomes very weak. Once a battery is discharged below around 10 volts it really never recovers. The point is we never really know what happened to our battery prior to us receiving the vehicle.

2019 Wrangler Sahara Unlimited
2019 JLU Sahara. Got CEL at about 900 miles; dealer said it was a "cracked purge valve". Waited 3 days for part, then dealer returned my Wrangler and said all better.
Now at 3990 miles, got CEL and the Stop/Start System Warning Light, showing a P0507 code. Made an appointment for service on July 5th. This is getting annoying on a fairly expensive brand new Wrangler!
