The high pitched noise I'm hearing is definitely coming from my gauges or some electronics right around there. It doesn't seem to get worse or better with turning the steering wheel. It only gets better with dimming the gauge cluster from what I've seen so far.
Hey everybody. I recently took a trip from south TX to Kansas. After about 20 hours into the trip, I noticed a high pitched whine coming from what seems to be the gauge cluster or steering wheel. I thought maybe I was hallucinating from this ridiculously long trip, so I brushed it off... but it...
I decided to be a guinea pig and ordered these, although it says they won't arrive until late Oct or early Nov. I'll keep everyone posted if they work.
You're right. I just picked up my Gladiator, same issue. My dealer said there is no fix in the pipe yet. I'll just keep bugging them on and off about it.
I love the sales dude I'm working with. I've been patiently (yeah right) awaiting the arrival of my Gladiator... and instead of sending me pictures of it yesterday when it arrived, he posts this in a local Jeep group and tags me. That is his Jeep in the foreground. lol
I have the best sales dude in the world. I've been waiting and waiting for my Gladiator to arrive, and he posts this in a local Jeep group on Facebook yesterday and tags me. The Jeep in the foreground is his. The one in the background right above it is my Gladiator. lol
I've got a 2018 JLUR (waiting for my 2020 Gladiator to get to the dealer), and neither key has this issue. The gap around my key fob is the same size all the way around the key.
What I think happened - and I'm just spitballing here - is they order these fob shells from a manufacturer in the...
Can your dealer place a second order for you and see if it goes through faster? They can always sell your Rubicon if it ever arrives... but I wonder if you'd just be better off ordering again?
What options did you order? Mine had a VON and VIN in under 24 hours and went to D1 status already - I ordered it 07/24/19. My build:
Sting Gray Gladiator Rubicon
Auto transmission
LED lighting
Front camera
Safety Group
Advanced Safety Group
8.4 Radio and Alpine System
Cargo Rail System
Remote...
Don't forget though, that 7 inch screen doesn't have the Alpine system by default. That alone is worth the upgrade, in my opinion.
On the JLUR I have, even the gauge cluster screen changed by going with the 8.4 Infotainment (they called it that at some point) - I'm not sure if that's the case...
I went to test out the 7 inch radio with Alpine system versus the 8.4 radio with Alpine system the other day - and I have to say, for whatever reason, the 8.4 inch radio with the Alpine system had a deeper thump to the bass that could be felt in my chest. This was a test using the same phone...
Awesome! The ATs I test drove didn't have any rumble at all (which makes sense) and had great road manners. I'm still glad I ordered the MTs. Can't wait to get mine in - thanks everybody!
