Some hate the start/stop. My peeve is the tpsm's, which are useless IMO. I flat tow(no value) to trailheads and aired down at the trailheads which activates the dash warnings during my outings. With my newest tires, I deleted them. Nanny B.S. IMO
I like them because I can just stand at the drive door and stare at the reading on the dash when I'm airing up, none of this BS checking 10 times thing. One of my favorite parts of the Jeep! It does drive me crazy though when one is off by 1psi according to the reading. Pre-TPMS, I would have never known but now the OCD kicks in and it drives me crazy.

Oh, I see the problem right there! It's a 2 door! :giggle:
FOR REAL. My dealer I found out does cover warranty if any component is modified in any way.

He never mentioned the wheels, it was the Tire size they denied the warranty as 35s do come on the JLR.

You need to let it go....all the dealers here would have denied it also.

They can FLAG your jeep in the system so you may want to avoid the dealer(s)on tire issues.

I never asked the dealer to to fix it, or cover it, never! I fixed it on own dime...IFJeep keeps records on warranty work, going back 19 Jeeps thru my 2023 since 1984, you find exactly 5 x I asked for warranty work...WHY? You put you Jeep in for a broken ashtray, 6 mo later you get it back and its full of Cig butts. I tell them I will bring it in Fri COB, and I need by but the following Friday COB. If they cannot do it, I probably can fix it myself.

My '69 corvette, the clutch gave out, it was under warranty and I put in and they did not have that clutch in stock and it would take a while since it was a HiPo setup on my 427. I took it to my buddy's garage and used one of his bays. I, ordered Clutch, Flywheel, pressure plate and throwout bearing and replaced it myself. When it was said and done I had a better clutch setup and it only took a couple of hours, maybe 3 max.

TPMS work is a rip off. I brought a TPMS programmer and a bead buster and do it my self now. For the $400 investment I am good to go now across 5 vehicles.

wont lie, the dealer was a dbag and could have handled this situation much better. I personally would have gone to the sam's club with the receipt and asked them to the wheel off and have a look. They should fix it without issue. Then again, I wouldnt trust Sam's or a Walmart in that matter to touch any of my vehicles. My brother in law learn that last year when Walmart did an oil change on this mini cooper and the motor blew up 100 miles later due to failure to put the drain plug back on. they also refused to pay for the replacement motor and have ghosted the claim completely.

This is the exact reason why i go to America's tire / @Discount Tire . They dont always have the quickest service and mistakes have happened in the past. but they have always stood up to their work and made it right one way or another.

LOL, that is not a problem, I have warranty and an appt Mon at 4 to have tighten up at Sams.

For those of you on the dealer's side, try reading this again: The Dealer stated REPEATEDLY it was: "the NON OEM TIRES, 35s do not come on a 2023 JLR, that is a QUOTE!!! He did not care about the wheels, its the TIRES folks...but for $480+ Tax they will cheerfully fix it...

He did NOT place blame on the Wheels or Sam's Club, it was TIRES, wrong size!

He also mentioned the tailgate, I have the 35 there also. I told him I had the reinforced tailgatge option. He said does not make any difference, its a non OEM size and not under warranty if it breaks.

Here we go: 35 x 12:50 x 17:9.50

dealers are dumb, kinda funny when Jeep just put out the new Rubicon with the 392 and 37x12.5R17 from the factory on the " mopar tailgate reinforcement" setup

I used to wheel with some of the guys at HQ Discount Tire, I lived out in Scottsdale. Discount tire is THE Tire store. I bought BFG KM2 every year, yes I did that much wheeling. Good folks and I got employee discount, just wish there was one on this side of FL...

So I did some detective work....There is a new store location under construction and scheduled to open in the next 60 days or so (don't hold me to that) in Fort Myers. A bit of a drive but getting closer to you.
