Haha oh yeah, my brakes were full of mud and all sorts of crap when I pulled the wheels/calipers to try this myself a couple of weeks ago. That probably had something to do with it. I do always leave it in gear when parked; that's how I learned to drive stick. Reverse when facing downhill, first...

It wasn't a big deal when I lived in Florida and 95% of the places I parked were flat, level ground. But since moving to Virginia, it seems that every parking lot (and every trail) has some sort of slope to it.

Interesting...so after doing some more tests this week, the brake does seem to hold the Jeep on an uphill slope. That is, when I'm facing uphill, the brake will engage after a few clicks (the handle is about halfway up), the Jeep will roll for a couple of inches, and then I can feel the brake...

Yup, I've had that happen too. The handle has to be pulled up so high that you need to really beat on it to get the button/handle to release. That is what tells me there was too much slack in the cable; this was prior to the dealership replacing the cable under warranty last August. Trust me...

The issue wasn't with the cable; the cable has always felt tight. The issue was the brake drum and shoe not making contact, so even with the cable tight, the brakes were not engaged. That being said, yes, I have personally adjusted the cable under the console several times by tightening the 10mm...

Something must be wrong then because I have rolled away countless times while pressing the clutch to start the Jeep, right foot firmly planted on the brake.

Yeah thanks but I've been through 3 cases, 3 case managers, and a supervisor, and you all tell me the same thing. No one cares.

The handle pulls all the way to the top, like as far up as it will go, and does feel like there is some tension, but then the Jeep just starts rolling away. I do hear a jingling sound when pulling the handle up and down. I can't even park on a 2 degree slope in the parking lot. I know the manual...

I have a 2022 Mojave with a Manual Transmission that I custom ordered and bought brand new in 2022. Ever since 6,000 miles, my parking brake has not held the Jeep on any sort of incline. I've had the dealership adjust the brake 7 times already; I've had 3 cases open with Jeep Wave. The first...

Dropped mine off at the dealer as well. Let us know how it turns out!

When I called the FCA recall center on 5/5/23, I was told that I would be fully reimbursed for parts (I confirmed non-OEM, non-Mopar, aftermarket) and labor, provided the work was done at a certified Jeep dealer. I then called my local dealer and convinced the service manager to install the...

I called the FCA recall center back in May and spoke to a rep there who assured me I would be fully reimbursed for aftermarket parts and labor as long as the clutch replacement was done at a certified Jeep dealership. He also told me that Jeep would have replacement parts on September 5th. So...

My apologies, it’s a Sport S. And yup it sure does! Here’s the listing with additional photos and here’s the window sticker from the dealer website…the “internet price” has it discounted $7k.

Went to the dealer to have my parking brake adjusted (6MT) and they had this Sport sitting out front. They are charging $10,000 for the upgrades, which include new Mopar lift, wheels/tires, bumper, fog lights, and winch.

Much appreciated! Seems like I’m fighting an uphill battle, but either way it’s unfortunate that Jeep can’t give us 6MT owners a straight answer. Their logic is quite goofy, and in fact, contradictory. I was also told by the same rep at the FCA recall center that parts and/or a fix wouldn’t be...

My dealer charged me 7.9 hours of labor to install the ACT clutch. Came out to ~$1800 in labor (including tax and shop supplies) plus $1200 for the clutch. While I am still fighting with FCA (I was told by the recall center that I would be fully reimbursed for non-OEM parts and labor, as long as...

Hey everyone! I just picked up my Gladiator from the dealer with the ACT clutch installed. On the short drive home, all I can say is WOW what a difference! The pedal has much more feel; you can feel the stronger return on the pedal, and you can actually feel the engagement point! I still have to...

I got this letter also. It says “on certain 2022 Jeep Gladiator vehicles.” It also shows up in the My Mopar app. Looks like just 2022 model years, but it doesn’t specify any other details. I would assume this applies to any 2022 Gladiators with power locks. Edit: when I clicked on the...

Just placed my order for the ACT JP6 clutch! I will keep you all updated regarding dealer installation, first impressions, and the reimbursement process. Wish me luck!
