  1. Getting rid of my Gladiator for a Bronco

    Understand that your Gladiator had issues not all Gladiators or jeeps have them. My 2020 with just over 30,000 miles has been excellent with zero issues and zero Maintenace save oil changes and annual state safety inspection. It may be just luck of the draw that you got a mild lemon and could...

  2. Dana Spicer 4:88s are in stock, i have a couple questions.

    you need a M220 rear set. The one you linked is M210 and all JTs came with M220s. front is correct tho. The rubicon, mojave and max tow also have M220s but they are widetrack i.e. longer and thicker axles tube but still the same gear set size as all other JTs, only differing in ratio. You also...

  3. Aux. Battery: When did yours die (or how old is it now if it hasn't)?

    If no problems why the Aux battery delete??

  4. NightHawk Owners! Only 2000 of us. Join this elite thread ;)

    I don't know for a fact, but I think the new Uconnect 5 that is in these 2024's has considerably less functionality than previous models, and instead leans into CarPlay/Android Auto to do the heavy lifting. For example, if my phone is connected to Android Auto, the "voice command" button will...

  5. 2020 Rubicon - Paint Bubbling on Hood!

    Same problems mine and others posted here. Good luck https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/paint-flaking-bubbling-on-2020-jt.52425/#post-909011

  6. "high mileage" 2020 JT

    Then why are the vast majority of posts about cam issues related to 2020 model year? You don't see later 2021 models or 2022 model owners talking of the cam issues like the 2020 model year owners did. Gather up all the complaints about cams for 2020 model year then go gather the numbers for...

  7. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Yes, I had a 2020 6MT and never had any problems. I just decided to get a new one. I'm starting to wish I hadn't sold the 20 model.

  8. Better Running 36" tires instead of 37" (4.88 Gears & Sport S w/2.5 Lift)?

    So I've got a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport S (NOT Max Tow). I've done a number of things to it including: 2.5" Clayton Lift w/ Track Bars & Adjustable Arms (Link) Falcon Shocks SP2 3.3 Fast Adjust Piggyback Front and Rear Shocks Falcon 2.2 Steering Stabalizer (Link) ABOUT TO REGEAR TO 4.88 (Not...

  9. The Jeep Gladiator Is the Most Reliable Car Consumer Reports Has Tested

    When I first bought mine, the Carfax and dealer record showed only maintenance and a replaced windshield in 35k miles. The aux battery failed at the 3 year mark, which is normal. So that's again a maintenance issue. I've had zero problems in the 15k miles I've owned it. I replaced the tires...

  10. Some hesitation and weird shifting

    My 2020 is at 53k miles and it just started. Very strange shifting at low speeds and when I pop it into reverse it’s worse! ?‍?

  11. Nothing but problems

    @JeepCares case# 848712118 I bought my Gladiator in July of 2021, it’s a 2020 but was brand new with only 4 miles on it. Since then anytime the weather gets cold it won’t start or it starts and won’t go into gear. I have had it towed to the dealer twice and driven it to the deal 5/6 times for...

  12. Does Model Year Matter? Any to avoid yet?

    Looking for opinions (with reasons) about whether or not the model year matters with the first generation Gladiator, as I start used Jeep shopping. I’m not sure I want a “covid Jeep” (ie, supply chain shortages) based on nothing whatsoever, but also don’t know if Jeep actually made improvements...

  13. Overheating While Towing

    I tow a 19’ 3,500 pound travel trailer with a 2020 JT Overland with tow package. Three years so far with 7,500 miles towing, no issues. Add too much weight, or mechanical problems, it just may overheat. In the real world, my Overland has performed well doing what it was designed to do within its...

  14. Aftermarket Radios

    I was a little worried at first when I decided on the Heigh 10. I read where quite a few Jeeples that switched to it had problems. I'm guessing they didn't use the right wiring harness. I've had no problems at all with my system. I changed out all the speakers and added 2 amps (with tuners) and...

  15. leveling kit and alignment

    You realize on Jeeps like these, there is only one adjustment that can be made with stock control arms for an alignment... setting toe. If you have adjustable control arms, then you can set the castor and the front and rear axle thrust. If Camber is out, you probably need ball joints, or a new...

  16. Is the Gladiator at risk for cancellation?

    I find this to be a contradictory take- The 4Runner is built on 14 year old underpinnings, and it gets worse milage than the Gladiator. It has less breakover, approach, and departure angles. It's well known to have terrible steering, and maybe they fixed it in the '24s, but it's generally...

  17. Push Button Start - Issue with the Button not reading Fob

    I agree with the "if you can swap buttons (it's pretty easy to remove, unplug and swap). I'm really curious, though - you have a 2020 - what's the battery voltage like? Is there a pattern - is this happening after the truck has been sitting a while? Does it ever happen shortly after driving it...

  18. Handsfree mic - fix

    I have the 2020 Gladiator and it behooves me to say that I was oblivious about the problems with the internal handsfree mic - there are two located up above by the rear view mirror. It wasn't until I asked my wife (mic check) that she mentioned, “oh ya it sounds like you’re riding in the wind.“...

  19. Alignment issue after lift

    First, do you trust the shop who checked the alignment? If you want to get good info and are not knowledgeable about steering components, take your vehicle to a known competent shop that does a lot of 4x4 vehicles and get their opinion of the problem. It appears you clearly have a problem with...

  20. Does Model Year Matter? Any to avoid yet?

    Double edge sword here. Like mentioned 2020's had some big issues with engine and charging/battery stuff. My 2022 JTR was at the height of covid crap. So stupid expensive thanks to inflation, and concerns about quality. I have a couple minor issues - like a bed that is not properly aligned...
