  1. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    The mileage was recorded. I also have a hardwired dashcam. Well, not really hardwired, but OBD powered. One day, when it is ready I will review the camera footage.
  2. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    My airtag app showed my Jeep about 2 miles away from the shop last week. By the time I able to check on things, the airtag was showing back at the shop. The Jeep was in a different spot. No work had been done yet. I did receive a call from the bodyshop asking if I had any updates on the...
  3. Only 2900 miles and I think I have a fuel pressure leak down issue

    Good luck with the dealership putting your Jeep on a slight slope and letting it sit overnight. If it doesn't repeat the problem sitting level, they most likely will shrug it off and blame it on something you will have to pay for ( fuel filter). You can try something yourself. When you have it...
  4. Gladiator Flush Style Tail Lights V2 Update!

    I had purchased version 1 for my 2020 in 2021. I had one fail after a year or so. Oracle replaced it, great customer service.
  5. Dreaded Service Auto Start/Start message...

    I'm stunned that you have the original batteries and want to "try" something different. You definitely got your moneys worth from the originals. Tape up the aux negative and pull f42 like Mr. Bill suggested. Might be a good time to replace the main or have it load tested. Read up on IBS, fuse...
  6. Gladiator Flush Style Tail Lights V2 Update!

    A few of us have added a rubber trim seal to make it a neater looking install. Oracle's fit was okay, but just looked a bit unfinished. Does version 2 have any kind of a seal? Just curious.
  7. Severe Bubbling Paint and Out of Warranty

    Did you confirm the the corrosion warranty has expired? My understanding is the it starts when the vehicle is first sold and not when manufactured. So it depends on when the vehicle was purchased by the original owner. Carfax could potentially show when it was first registered/ sold. The dealer...

    I go duck hunting a few times a year. I am never questioned where the ducks go.
  9. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    Unfortunately, I have to be a good role model around here. It sucks to let someone else molest my Gladiator though. We will see how it plays out.
  10. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    I'm still holding out that it is a technology glitch. I know that it shows it most of the time within a half block of the body shop. It has been as far as 3 miles away and several times just half mile away ( at the pizza, bbq and the pub!). I have a camera mounted on the dash. I'll know if they...
  11. What Did You THINK Was Wrong w/ Your Gladiator, But Wasn’t?

    I get a kick out of the Tahoe SuperCruise. Auto lane change is fun. It has it's flaws but that is why the driver needs to stay focused and in control. Now that I used the GM super cruise, I now use the JTs cruise control. I have learned to watch my speed when behind other vehicles, especially...
  12. Dead truck

    You will need to check those connections! Ideally, you should pull the ground and aux negative from the main negative isolating them. Charge the aux until full and then charge the main until full. Pull the IBS connector off. Reconnect your negative cables, main ground being the last one...
  13. Top 5 list of issues discussed across this site

    I had the rear window leak, loose steering feel, and corrosion. Other issues that I have seen on other Gladiators is the rear axle leak and a few power steering glitches. I can't think of one new vehicle that I purchased over the years that had more issues than the Gladiator, besides the GM...
  14. Dead truck

    A better idea would have been to toss a trickle charger on it and then get on the Harley. You can put a charger on it when you get home and try your luck in the morning. Until you give more info as far as voltages, I would guess you have a loose connection from the battery replacement. Go back...
  15. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    They could always jack it up and put it in reverse like in the movie.
  16. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    I just got a call from the body shop. The corrosion was too deep for repair. They had to resubmit photos of the attempted repair showing the corrosion. Waiting on Jeep or the Dealership to do their part. I don't know which panels are in question, but they have been removed. I was offered to...
  17. Ferris Bueller's day off?

    Now that I am back in town, I decided to check on the progress after 3 weeks at the body shop. ZERO progress! Back to waiting on Jeep for approval, or so that is what the dealership says. Shortly after that little chat, the airtag picked up movement again. It moved down the main highway a...
  18. When it rains, it pours, and not about Iowa weather........

    I'm sorry to hear about your recent struggles. I have been busy traveling and working on projects with the kids. I haven't had much computer/ phone time lately. Best of wishes for you and your wife and a speedy recovery.
