I have the same issue on my Overland, 3.6, automatic. Very similar to what you describe. Definitely comes from underneath, usually only happens on inclines during acceleration. Over the holiday weekend the sound was noticeable driving over a high-rise bridge at a beach here in NC. Otherwise, it...
Yeah, makes sense on the Durango because it's an older design. On a ground-up redesign like the L I expected better. That said, the L is impressive nonetheless. I hope your issues get resolved. There's a lot of new tech on that vehicle and the Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer. Hopefully they get it...
My wife and I test drove an "L" just to see. It's an impressive vehicle, however, I feel like some of the strengths of the outgoing Grand Cherokee are missing on the L. For one, the V6 Pentastar really feels long in the tooth in that vehicle. I was surprised because the 8 speed/V6 combo works...
Yes, I've experienced this issue. It seems most noticeable after the ESS system restarts the engine or starting the engine from cold. Sometimes it is more noticeable than others. I've also had two prior experiences with the 3.6 Pentastar - a '13 JKU and an '18 Grand Cherokee - and never...
I honestly don't know. Since steering has never been an issue for me, I haven't inquired about it at the dealership. Of course, the Overland comes stock with the much maligned P-rated Dueler tires. They don't look aggressive at all, but they do improve the ride quality. I want to do a lift and...
I don't have any experience with the JTR. But I can confirm that my '20 Overland steering is completely fine. It's actually a vast improvement over the steering in my '13 JKU. I've read a lot on this forum about steering issues but I've never experienced it. I drive a fairly twisty backroad to...
Great build! I'm considering the same wheel/tire setup. Like you, I'm really digging the clean, within the fender look of the AEV wheels. My question is, the Salta XRs you have are they in matte black or onyx? I don't typically love the blacked out wheel look so I'm leaning more toward onyx but...
It's good news indeed. According to Good Car Bad Car, which reports sales figures, in Q2 the Gladiator (29,962) bested its domestic counterparts the Chevy Colorado (14,775) and the Ford Ranger (27,104). The Toyota Tacoma still leads the midsize segment by a longshot though moving 72,847 in Q2...
Great looking Jeep! I almost went with Firecracker Red myself. Can confirm that the JT barely fits in my garage as well, lol. But hey, a full-size truck definitely couldn't. One of my favorite things about the Gladiator so far has been the many places it can go that would be very difficult or...
The Sport S has a few nicer options - heated seats and the alpine stereo system. But in hydro blue I think the Mojave really pops with the orange accents. Also, I think you can fit up to a 37" tire on a Mojave stock. The only option I wish either of these had are the LED headlights/foglights...
Something that would bother a new Jeep owner? Honestly, the fact that you waited so long to get a Jeep. That was my reaction anyway, ha! I thought, "man, why didn't I do this sooner?"
Highway handling - I read a lot on this forum about the Gladiator and Wrangler wandering at highway speeds...
Interesting that you find the soft top hotter. I have the Bestop Sunrider in Twill (same material as premium soft top) that replaces the two front "Freedom Panels". I find it a lot cooler than the panels. The Sunrider radiates less heat at least. Then again, I don't have any sort of headliner to...
It's interesting to me in checking out the Bronco forums that a lot of the people most interested in the Bronco seem to be coming from an F-150 or similar-sized vehicle. I see a lot of comments about limited elbow room, backseat legroom, cargo capacity, etc. - all non-issues to me because I...
I had the dreaded leaking hard top on my '20 as well. Unfortunately it took months to get the replacement glass in and I finally got Jeep Cares involved. I'm happy to report though that Jeep Cares was awesome to work with and the glass arrived at the dealer quickly thereafter. My dealer sublet...
Did you put a spacer in the rear or no? In some photos it looks like the Teraflex 1.5" level kit makes the front sit slightly taller than the rear. I tow regularly so I don't want the Jeep to look squatted. I know Teraflex recommends just installing the 1" spacer for a more level appearance when...
I’ve got you beat. I took mine to the dealer back in Nov ‘20 for the rear glass leaking and the glass still isn’t in. I finally called Jeep and complained. The case manager has been awesome so far and seems to be moving things along. Every time I called the dealer it was just a “we’re still...
