Common JL Problems

[LuvHydro]

These issues seem to be common on JL's. Any others to watch for?

1. Paint bubbling
2. Fragile Windshields
3. Mysterious slow loss of coolant - 2.0LT
4. Fragile Sunvisors
5. Loose fuses from factory
6. Overinflated tires from factory
7. Premature primary/secondary battery failure

There is nothing mysterious about the 2.0 coolant thing. And it isn't "common". The bolts are loose holding the pump on. Tighten them.

Don't think there's anything wrong with the windshield. It's a jeep. There not slanted back near as much as a normal vehicle. And on the JL they increased the slop back, so they are better than past year's.

Don't think the tires are overinflated either. The dealership puts them right at the high side of recommended pressure. They do it with everything.

The battery issue was fixed in 2018.

That is not what is causing it for some of us.

Ok. So your issue is even less "common" then.

Notwithstanding, the list is accurate, just not sure why you're compiling?

Loose pump bolts is a thing. But so is mysterious coolant loss.

I have a 6 wk old Rubi with 2000 mi and I’ve watched the fluid slowly disappear. I check it religiously. Adding coolant now, and I’m fairly mechanical (I keep that ‘51 in my avatar running strong) and I can’t find any signs of coolant leak in the JLUR.
