Thank you! Took delivery of my Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport, Manual on Jan 29th, 21!!There has been prior notices issued for this (and discussed in depth here), but this latest one expands out to dates # of vehicles affected.
Recall notice: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2021/RCLRPT-21V028-2204.PDF
Some 2018-2021 MY Jeep Wrangler vehicles equipped with manual transmissions may experience overheating of the clutch intermediate pressure plate. Extreme overheating may cause the clutch to fracture.The suspect period began on August 23, 2017, when production of Jeep Wrangler vehicles equipped with manual transmissions started, and concluded on January 22, 2021, when shipment of Jeep Wrangler vehicles with manual transmissions ended.Similar vehicles not included in the recall are not equipped with manual transmissions.The total affected vehicles for this model is 36,692.Production Dates : AUG 23, 2017 - JAN 22, 2021
Not sure what to do about this recall, since its voluntary. In a dilemma whether to ride it out till it fails or take it and have the dealer fix the issue! Driven close to 800 miles as of today!
On a anotber issue the radio reception and sound quality in both AM and FM sucks. Didnt expect it to be so poor!
Please advise Thx.
