Treading into dangerous water here with an opinion that likely won’t be well received.
Pointing to other modified vehicles on lot doesn’t hold water. Just because dealer sells it doesn’t mean FCA backs it. Likely dealer is rolling the dice with a margin and or marketing play. If something goes sideways, the dealer eats it from original customer who purchased vehicle. Customer never knows who paid the bill.
Point #2 - when you modify it’s always a roll of the dice. Just how it is. Specifics and laws are fun to debate, but reality is Jeep is broke and however this shakes out no one will be be a happy camper.
I’ve worked at an OEM for over a decade and spent a good amount of time on the front line working with dealers, customers and the OEM.
PS - we should all refrain from the dealer doesn’t want to do the work; word tracks. Dealers love warranty work - specifically they love warranty work they know the OEM will reimburse them for.
Cheers!!!
