I did the caps from Amazon as a temporary fix and it does help by forcing more warm air to the problem area which for me is the extreme right and left sides of the windshield. Snow builds up and won't melt. Working on a design with my Wentworth Tech son for him to 3D print on his printer at home.
This has happened to me:
1] Make sure seatbelt is latched
2] Place the vehicle in park
3] Close the door
4] Shift back to drive
No issues
If the above ever didn't work, I would unplug the door wire as you did.
Jeep with a bed - definitely. Was tired of putting stuff in the back of my SUV and taking a chance on damaging the interior. Have owned or own Wranglers, Cherokee's and Grand Cherokees and the Gladiator was logical. No regrets.
The previously more "bare bones" Wrangler models/brand has become more accessible with the introduction of new "luxury" features in the past 15 years. If that all of the newcomers to our "brand" help keep the brand alive and supported by Jeep - I'm all for it.
I still get better than 75% back...
First thing I remove every car I buy. Mine were all separate words - so the only thing I left on mine was the small black "JEEP" from "Colonial South Chrysler Ram Jeep and Dodge" : )
I like the stock rims as well - it does look off to me, though i thought it was the narrow profile of the stock Bridgestone Duelers. Makes the whole truck look "taller and thinner".
Planning on going with something same size (love my 22-23 mpg) but with a stronger sidewall profile - like the...

Overland - that’s my ride and I have yet to see another in my area. I drive 50-60 highway miles 5 days/week. Regularly see a Mojave, two sports and a Sport S.
Tow straps and tie downs for the JT. Furniture dolleys: Front loader, snow blower, weight box, snowplow and all attachments for my compact diesel tractor are on dolleys so I can roll them around when needed.
Has anyone run Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac or Goodyear Fierce Attitude M/T? Believe they are rated in the 50k mile range and definitely look more aggressive than the Bridgestone Duelers that came on my stock JT Gladiator Overland (18” wheels).
Nice color choice! Punk’n Orange Metallic rocksI have a low (8’ ceiling) garage and built a rack that I park under and slide the top onto when removed. For me it beat a rolling rack which would take up floor space. I use the rubber corner bumpers sitting on furniture slides. I back in under the...
I’ve experienced this as well - especially summer nights with the headlights on. I chalked it up to the cost of doing business. I usually drive my JT with a big, dumb smile on my face - now I just keep my mouth closed!
Ditto on the light, jumper cables, tie downs, tow strap and a snow brush and fleece blanket in the winter (so much room under there!) - just the Jeep bits/driver top door removal kit behind the seat in the mesh pocket (easier to find it quickly).
