Sound while coasting with 4WD Full time or Part Time Engaged

[CNDJeepLife]

Hi All,

Proud owner of a one week old 21 JLUR. Today I was out for a drive and noticed a sound while coasting in 4WD full time and part time. The sound disappears when my foot is on the gas pedal or when I switch to 2 WD. I have attached a video. The video starts with the noise, then i remove my foot from the gas (sounds disappears). I'll most likely set up an appt next week to have it looked at, but just wanted to see if the community has experienced anything like this?

Dropped her off at the dealership this morning. I'll keep this updated for any that may have a similar issue in the future.

Isn't that just the "Throat Baby Go Baby" soundtrack. The dealer can show you how to tune to SXM Ch. 7. ?

When you shift into 4WD, make sure the transfer case is fully engaged in 4WD. There is some play in the shift cable. Good luck at the dealer.

Just heard back from the dealer and they are thinking it needs a new front axle/differential. Just waiting for an ETA on the parts, which could be months ?.

NO! You just got it! After waiting all that time!

Picked up a loaner yesterday and got an update from the dealer. They found metal shavings in the differential fluid. No parts available and have to wait for a complete front axle assembly - 6 months was mentioned, but I really hope not. I'll be following up with FCA to see if I can speed things up.
