Received a notice of recall through the app over the weekend for this. If affects vehicles manufactured between December 15, 2018 and June 25, 2019. All are to be inspected. If ungreased in production, they intend to replace the driveshaft. No repair parts are currently available according to the recall.
Heard the same here. Parts not available, and Tech's don't even know what a monoblock joint is:facepalm:

Best description I've seen yet, as to where the monoblock joint is. I'll be sending that to the service manager and parts manager. Thank you

they can get it on the FCA Global recall system that is where I clipped it from

The parts are not available until later this year.

Silver sticker on the drivers door jamb should have the build mo/year you are looking for...

PM me the VIN and I will get you the Build date.

Well now I know that my Jeep was made on July 13th, a Saturday at 6PM. I've always heard the quality issues with like a Friday around 5PM made car, but I've never heard anything about how OT weekend work was with quality.

The Friday at quitting time lack of quality is pretty much a archaic myth.
