Transmission done for at 91k

[traviseatonconstruction]

2019 jlu sahara 2.0 w/ etorque.
motor blew at 65k. (Warped block)
Now transmission at 91k. Thank god for warranty but I’m on the fence if I should get rid of it now and cut my losses or hold on being I have a new motor and transmission. I’ve always been a “jeep guy” but it’s sad what they’ve become.

65k, Leaking coolant overflow to start(cracked at plastic seam). Replaced it and within 20 miles running rough and check engine light flashing. Took to dealer and they discovered coolant in cylinder 2. After tear down determined block was warped. Got a new engine put in but was without jeep for 4 months. At 91k it jerked hard going into reverse and was slipping going into 3rd gear. No code was thrown and it still drove so they tried to deny warranty fix. With a really good service manager and me starting a case and multiple calls with Jeep cares they finally made it right and replaced transmission.
