Did a little event Saturday in my new 21 JLUR. 3.6. Noticed a rattling noise when accelerating on the ride home assume i pushed something into the exhaust. Had a tech at my dealership look at it today he said its an exhaust leak up in the engine bay most likely? Any similar experiences or suggestions

Might not be what you have, but on a previous jeep, i drug a catalytic converter on a rock just enough to dent it, but internally, it damaged the core. A piece inside broke off and would rattle around especially on acceleration. Have you checked under the jeep for any areas you might have hit? Might give a clue

I originally thought underneath but nothing pushed up into it thankfully. My tech knows Jeeps decently well and we could see a little rattle by the engine. He's gonna throw it up on a lift later this week to see if he can pinpoint it
