JL owners be warned! Rear camera cover snapped during tire rotation

[ImAJeepskate]

Just curious, why did you bring your Jeep to a tire place for rotation? If I'm not mistaken, tire rotations are included when you take in your Jeep for an oil change through the Jeep Wave program.

I go to school in an area where the nearest dealership is more then 50 miles away. And i'm not going to sit around for 4-5 hours while they push back the service appointment.

I removed my backup camera cover, disconnected my brake light (have the CHMSL kit), before we go to Discount tire for new tires. If I can change and balance tires myself, I will avoid them.

What’s the purpose of that cover anyway??

Oil changes, tire rotations and even differential oil changes on the JL are embarrassingly easy. Give it a try and avoid crappy service and screw ups.

How easy is it? Before buying the JL, I barely knew how to operate a screwdriver.. No issues doing this maintenance on my own (among lots of mods too!)

So with my extreme shoulder arthritis in my shoulders it should be easy? Don't speak for everyone.

I'm surprised someone hasn't said it sounds like what a Jeep dealer tech would do.

I can’t speak for op, but every dealer I checked with in my area wants me to leave Jeep all day for Wave free oil change/rotation. Loaner may be available. First come first serve. Can’t be bothered. I do it myself. I installed a fumoto valve, don’t even need a wrench for that anymore.

My Dealer north of Boston, Kelly Jeep did the work, oil and rotate, while I waited. Took less than 20 minutes.

You’re absolutely right and point taken. If you were near by I’d be happy to change your oil for you to avoid letting a stealership touch it!

Deal if you buy the oil and filter.

Must just be a U.S. Program

Some dealership techs are not much smarter than this tire monkey. I'll change my own oil and do my own rotations. Nobody treats your vehicle like you would.

How often should I rotate?

I do mine every 6,000

I took mine off before I had them rotate my wheels just figured that they may have not seen the cover before and couldn't figure it out.
