Absolutely! This level of inconsistency is what I find most troubling. It’s one thing which I take for granted now that as consumers we do know more than the sales staff and dealerships about their own products sometimes. My partner just bought herself a 2020 Black Edition Honda CRV last week...
Sorry to hear you’re having difficulties! My dealer installed the Mopar lift on my Gladiator and when it actually worsened the wandering they installed the Fox Steering Stabilizer on my Gladiator free of charge and told me it would at least be a temporary fix until a future FCA official fix came...
Interesting their recommendation was to return to stock to “improve drive quality”. My dealership installed my Mooar lift on it and immediately I complained that the wandering and steering seemed really worse off. Initially they said it was probably because it was now lifted. Fortunately the...
I think one can be impacted by what one reads or sees. However in this instance what you described your wife say is what most of those who have the steering issues have some or all of what was described.
Here’s my take....I picked up my Gladiator after having the TSB taken care of. I also had...
My appointment is first thing tomorrow morning and was done just over the phone. On my last oil change a few weeks ago I complained about steering being an issue and they said nothing was wrong with it and drove like other Jeeps. Perhaps because there’s notes on my complaint on file my...
Just got a call about the parts having come in here in Richmond BC. Bringing it in this upcoming Wednesday morning to get done and will report back. So definitely there isn’t an issue about this TSB is available in the US only.
I’m also thinking of having them install the adjustable Teraflex...
Just a thought...when people are calling and asking about this TSB and they are looking up a VIN number to see “if your jeep requires this fix”, perhaps they’re going about it the wrong way. I don’t see how looking up a VIN would indicate if your vehicle is having steering issues. Hence...they...
Well frankly...in my opinion after having dealt with various dealerships in the lower mainland the best I’ve ever dealt with is Richmond Chrysler. Not exactly the “wheeling capital” of BC but they’ve treated me unbelievably. From the sales managers, accounting department, parts manager and now...
I’m in Vancouver and my the service department here said they have the TSB. I was on the phone with them when they looked it up as I was reading them the TSB number. That said, I’m waiting to hear back from them when the parts are due to come in but was told they would bring them in for me to do...
Earlier in the thread I mentioned I called my dealership’s service department and was told they would call me back. Well it’s now Saturday and no call back so I decided to follow up. Fortunately I got a hold of the service writer I’ve mainly dealt with and she was completely on the ball. She...
I actually tried to Jedi mind trick them and said “I’ve got great news about the steering issues JLs and JTs have. Do you know about the new TSB? Parts manager already said he’d order the parts for the fix and he just mentioned to book an appointment with you guys first”
I read the one set “every 14 days” and called my dealership immediately. Verified it’s in Canadian dealerships now. I should be first in line here so long as I pass the phases when they inspect my jeep for the wandering. With my luck, they won’t find an issue like they said the last time it was in.
I think that the majority of people don’t buy Wranglers (not sure about Gladiators yet because there aren’t that many around my city yet) and Jeeps in general for the “Trail Rated” adventure vehicles they could be. In my area, there are more stock than there are not. Most have stock wheels...
I just assume everyone who owns a Wrangler or Glafiator I see on the road is a mall crawler where I live. It’s pretty obvious to me whether they are modded or not. Mud or dirt under the fender liners, or not perfectly clean under carriage. I’ve kept my Gladiator fairly clean recently after...
I recently watched this the other day.
It’s a guy who drove from Alaska to South Americaby purchasing a $5000 used Jeep. Then he bought a used Rubicon and drive $18,000 all over Africa. His premise was he picked a vehicle which wouldn’t break down in the jungles of the Congo. Check his story...
From about Dec 2019 to July 2020 I never washed my Jeep and ran it pretty much looking like this.
Then I decided to get it ceramic coated after hearing about how easy it is to clean afterwards. I admit, there was a certain bit of charm driving around with my Gladiator caked with dirt and mud...
