I knew going in FCA products are dead last in every quality or satisfaction survey. I also know there is a bit of a gray area within these surveys. Currently there is nothing like a Wrangler or Gladiator. I have no choice but to buy a Wrangler if I want a removable roof and door 4X4. I rolled the dice again and so far I am problem free. Knock-on-wood! My fingers are crossed. In the mean time I am still enjoying every second of my JLR.Whatever illness that JT acquired was caught from the JL since they have the same powertrain, electrical, and design. So it doesn't exactly bode well for ANY of us.
My JLU spent weeks in the shop. My JT has been flawless. S*** happens.
There are different power trains, electrical systems, and designs. The Gladiator is currently only available with the 3.6 ESS or maybe 3.6 eTorque. Both have very different electrical systems. The occasionally and unfairly criticized 2.0T eTorque or ESS is not available in a Gladiator so it can be eliminated as the cause of any problems with the JT if the problem was engine related.
What doesn't bode well is FCA's lack of quality control over it's entire product line. Jeep owners need to realize FCA's poor quality should not be accepted as a JEEP thing. It should be a quality thing. FCA's rock bottom quality ratings need to improve.
