  1. Solutions for the freeway wander - will track bar/steering stabilizer help?

    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...
  2. Solutions for the freeway wander - will track bar/steering stabilizer help?

    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...
  3. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  4. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  5. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  6. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  7. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    Sounds like the service department’s differ in their training then. Recalls are clearly different as mentioned.
  8. Jeep Gladiator - happy owners? seeing scary stuff in the repair forums

    9 months and 12k kms with no issues as mentioned.
  9. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  10. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  11. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  12. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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...
  13. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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”
  14. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    Same thing was said to me actually. So the software update could conceivably fix the steering issues without having to replace parts.
  15. New JT Gladiator Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    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.
  16. How to spot a Mall Crawler

    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...
  17. How to spot a Mall Crawler

    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...
  18. 6x6

    At least they’d be able to properly load wooden planks and not hit a cyclist on the side of the road... lol
  19. Newbie Here - About to Pull The Trigger on a Mojave and Getting a Shiver

    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...
  20. What cleaning and detailing products do you use?

    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...
