New JL owner-possible help

[Ratbert]

00819….. I think you may be thinking what I am.

Yeah, that's pretty low, but not in the first hundred or so that are typically test runs.

Thank you very much for your imagination and I would love to have some fun information such as that.
I’m more interested in why Jeep claims there were no HA ICE’s built in 24 and I have one. I believe if you were in the same place I am, you would/should feel the same. I love the Jeep and all that comes with it without the 4xE issues, just want to find out how we ended up with this one., and are there others out there similar to it. I expect people to question why I want to know, but why wouldn’t you????

Not trying to be a humm bug or nothing. Here’s an example. I own a 2010 JK Mountain Edition in Mango Tango. I have always wanted one in rescue green. Having looked at several for sale over the years I have come across a few that were fake. I don’t know why, the Mountain Edition was nothing special other than being limited to a 2000 unit run only in 2010. But during the inspection of a few some things didn’t add up. One was even cleverly accompanied by a window sticker that said it was a mountain but had the wrong gear ratio. Come to find out it was a totaled Jeep that someone pulled the vin plate and Mountin Edition goodies off and slapped on a sport. Again I’m not trying to kill your feelings I hope you find a cool story to go along with your Jeep, just be ready for the possibility to find something you dont want to find.

Try this site, maybe, maybe not. Good luck with the search.

Thank you for the input and I have thought of the same thing…. I just want to know why Jeep claims the HA was a 4xE only option when I have been driving one filled with 93 octane.

Back in the late 90s a friend of mine bought a brand new GMC truck. It had GMC on the grill and tailgate and Chevy on the doors. Some things can’t be explained.

That was relatively common back in the days of shared assembly lines at GM. The only difference between lots of parts was the label.

Could it be you have a loaded Sahara and not really an HA?

Thank you and we did think that is possible except the build sheet says HA and it is equipped with painted bumpers with black tow hooks. I’m not sure that would even be an option for the Sahara.

In the General Motors world, sometimes you can catch a corporate/factory fleet vehicle in the used market. They do issue window stickers with an MSRP, but the "selling" dealer on the sticker is one of GM's corporate addresses in Michigan. They typically have pretty low miles and carry the balance of the full factory warranty.

Jeep/Stellantis may be doing this same thing but not issue a window sticker since they're basically selling the vehicle to themselves? I'm not sure.

Thank you… that does seem to be the logical thinking on this or it was used in a long term factory borrowed magazine review.
The biggest hurdle I still have is it is a HA ICE, which Jeep claims to have built none, only 4xE in ‘24.

It looks like you have a unicorn, which is pretty cool. I would use that as a plus when the time comes to sell. 4xe's are having plenty of issues, so being ICE is a positive.

Also appears there are no records of required maintenance, oil changes, etc? That could effect your warranty?

Have you checked to make sure the VIN numbers match? Behind the windshield, drivers side door jam and there is one on the frame somewhere.

Thank you and the history of no service records and how it affects warranty is included in my correspondence with dealership. I would like it on record that it does not affect any warranty coverage.

A few of your comments have implied that you might think a 4xe doesn't have an internal combustion engine. It most definitely does.

I understand the 4xE is 2.0 plus plug in and my Jeep is strictly 2.0. The 4xE adds the battery system, not sure where the confusion with post was but thank you and I appreciate all the feedback from fellow Jeepers.

How many miles? It may not be old enough to have had maintenence done yet.
