Tommy, did you ever have any corrosion on your Willys? My 2018 has already been repainted 3 times, and it's back worse than ever.

This guy!

I love your channels, kinda insulted (with you being a JL owner and all) you only join the forum when it benefits you financially to do so.

I'm guessing we are just research for your latest TFLtalks video. 😒

At least tell me that the people whose information you're going to use for your video get a free t-shirt or something?

While I appreciate that you are willing to highlight the corrosion issue some have had on your channel, it might be worth conducting a poll to better understand how wide spread and varied the problem is.

Some on here have had the problem corrected with no return issues, others like Dusty, have experienced significant challenges in having the corrosion issue properly corrected. And then there are more than few of us who haven’t had an issue at all.

I’m on the forum ALL the time, I just don’t post. Sure we happy to send out free a T-shirt. Doing this story to inform folks about a potential issue and how Jeep is planning to address it.

2017 account, I didn't see that. My bad! 🤷‍♂️😜

Interesting!

Well if it's worth anything I've never had issues with rust or corrosion, and even if I did I probably wouldn't know because my jeeps usually caked in mud. Which might actually be the main reason why I don't have corrosion or rust issues. Also too I don't care about my paint. I mean have you seen my build page?!?

tough crowd....mine is too new to have corrosion or I would participate. I understand how the real world works and do not begrudge TFL for their success just like I don't begrudge Amazon or walmart...or anyone else that has found a niche and done well for themselves.

It’s not about begrudging them. This is purely to make a profit. Vendors have to pay to be on this site. This is no different.

You are absolutely taking advantage of someone’s time for your own benefit i.e. profit. You’re not doing this out of the goodness of your heart; it’s merely content.

You sound quite self-righteous - not a great look.

Happy to leave. Came here to get an owners side of the story from very knowledgeable folks plugged into the JL world that might have some interesting insight they would like to share to a different community.

It is for profit, I’m not trying to hide that. Just like nearly every other news and media site.

Next time something impactful happens in your community and your go to for profit news organization tries to tell both sides of the story I hope someone involved is willing to be interviewed without so much friction and skepticism.

we will have to agree to disagree..TFL is not selling or promoting on this site they are asking for opinions and information.

Just repainting is why its coming back. New repair procedure is to replace the affected panels.
