    Dealer for the 2019 was polite and seemed reasonable. Put a dashcam in and realized that their service was so bad.
  2. Jeep Technician (And Gladiator Owner) Discusses Common Questions and Problems on TrailRecon

    Our 2019 had terminal wander. Took the JLU in and the dealer did a wall job. Parked it next to the wall and ignored it. They did assure me that all TSB's had been done. Said it was the same as a new vehicle they had. Said It was A Jeep Thing. Surprised that's not on the option list. Jeep Thing.

  7. Problem with steering

    Thanks for the posts! Had real real trouble with the dealer we got our 2019 JLU from. It was leased; let it go when the lease was up. Questions: * why doesn't the dealer adjust the steering box? They never adjusted ours. * Does Jeep get a credit for defective steering gear assemblies? *...
  8. Problem with steering

    I worked in a Marina on the Rideau Canal two summers. Helped out/pumped gas. Busy place! I learned a lot about service there (Rideau Canal goes from Ottawa to Kingston. Construction was massive. We were near Jones Falls. There's a dam there that when it was built was one of the largest in the...
  9. Problem with steering

    So first dealer was one to avoid. Their charge for an oil change was $250 Canadian. Wallet flush. However, they were always polite. I took in the TSB printed and highlighted. They couldn't read/didn't read it. When I picked up the Jeep they handed me the paper work, said they weren't going to...
  10. Problem with steering

    I had dealer issues with the '19 JLU that wandered the same way. Dealer refused to honour the TSB in spite of the wording. They did not test my jeep right. They never went over 60 kilometres per hour. It was on the smoothest roads in town. took 6 minutes from startup to shut down. Their...

  15. My brakes just failed while taking my kids to school.

    I'm glad noone was hurt! My no brakes was serious. I would take it to the dealer and vacuum was restored. Dealer said, " No problem..." (Does that make it a VW thing? ;-)
  16. My brakes just failed while taking my kids to school.

    Had a Jetta with no brakes first thing in the morning. Hard pedal. It was a vacuum leak within the master cylinder. Dealer never figured it out. New master cylinder fixed it. Hope this helps. edit: just saw the post above. And your description of the bolt...well done.

  20. Couple issues no answers

    Some JL's have noise like the first one you described. There's a rubber grommet in the fire wall. It was missing....driver's side. New rubber grommet in--noise was gone. Other JL owners reported issues with the turbo on their 4 cylinder. (edit: I think you have a 3.6 so this wouldn't...
