  1. Manufacturer Buy-back "Approved"... What happens now?

    Sent you a reply via PM as well, but for future reference I guess I can safely add my experience below via answers I made to others:
  2. Black Rhino Armory Wheels, in Wisconsin... Did I screw up?

    It’s a 2021 model. Had to drive two hours to get it off a lot in Minnesota, but it was worth it. Glad I got my wheels when I did. Ordered them and had them on my Jeep in less than three weeks, but that was back in March of 2021.
  3. Black Rhino Armory Wheels, in Wisconsin... Did I screw up?

    Well, this post, and my wheels, aged better than my first Jeep did, ?! Ended up getting my black Sport S bought back by Stellantis as a lemon and bought a better Freedom Edition replacement. The wheels are getting a little sun fading from UV but are otherwise holding up well. Only one winter...
  4. Front Axle Disconnect.

    So I had this problem for about a week and a half, it was getting progressively worse and matched every other description on this thread. Suddenly it's stopped all together and hasn't come back in about 300-400 miles. I'm afraid my dealership won't take me seriously Tuesday and now I'll just...
  5. Front Axle Disconnect.

    Well add me to the list of Gladiator owners that is likely having the FAD disconnect issue. I think a commonality that I'm sensing from other people I've talked to is first heavy use of 4H. Mine started after a day of driving around in 4H after a big snow storm. It started with a small...
  6. Intermittent Rub Noise/Front end "Grind"

    Some great helpers here... Anyways, updated OP. Noise has gotten more pronounced, lasts longer and now includes a "dragging" feel which almost feels like brake application in the front end. Going to the dealership next week I hope. Seems to be consistent with the Front Axle Disconnect issue...
  7. Intermittent Rub Noise/Front end "Grind"

    Not happening at the same spot in the road or at the same speed, all completely random locations and speed. It's usually most noticeable on the flat-level because I can hear it. All of this just started over the past few days. All mods I have are now more than a month old, so if there is a...
  8. Intermittent Rub Noise/Front end "Grind"

    Updated: Noise has gotten worse and now lasts a full second and includes a dragging feeling in the front end. It almost feels as though I'm going over a rumble strip. I'd describe the noise as that light "grind" or "drag" noise you used to hear when you engaged 4x4 in an old transfer case...
  9. Lemon replacement, possible brake problems?

    I’ll start by reminding anyone reading that I’m coming off the tail end of an FCA buy back of my previous 2021 Sport S. I was plagued by electrical issues the local dealership couldn’t seem to resolve. I loved the truck, so I bought another Gladiator, however I’m gun shy at any little weird...
  10. Tazer Mini JL vs. J-Scan "Shift Points"

    This seems to have made the difference. I went with the actual measured height instead of the computed. I instantly see that I've now going from 13.5 mpg to over 18 average. My MPH seems to be a tad off, but it shows that I'm going about 1 MPH slower than the speedometer shows, so the mpg...
  11. Tazer Mini JL vs. J-Scan "Shift Points"

    I couldn't find a post that closely related to my issue, so I'm hoping a new topic might give me some insight. I've been using a Tazer JL mini on my 2021 Jeep Gladiator for a few weeks now and noticed that my fuel economy has gotten progressively worse after changing my tire size. I only went...
  12. Manufacturer Buy-back "Approved"... What happens now?

    Thanks for the info and feedback so far. I'm still waiting to get anything in writing from Jeep, but it sounds as though most people have gotten through their buy-back situations okay.
  13. Manufacturer Buy-back "Approved"... What happens now?

    If you look back in my post history you'll see that my 2021 Sport S presented some persistent electrical issues. Although the symptoms seemed to be fairly common the usual fixes didn't to do the trick. After spending nearly 40 days in the shop my Jeep was back on a flatbed after just four days...
  14. Anyone have electrical issues? My Jeep started acting crazy today

    Trust me when I say that I can almost recite Wisconsin lemon law from memory. I’m past Jeep Cares and dealing with a “Customer Retention Specialist” now. So much talk and so many broken timelines; they know I’m livid and fully intend to receive a new Jeep from this. Wire harnesses checked, fuses...
  15. Anyone have electrical issues? My Jeep started acting crazy today

    No electrical modifications to mine. Bone stock. Today is day 35 since I dropped it off. Alleged fix part was installed yesterday.
  16. Anyone have electrical issues? My Jeep started acting crazy today

    Last week the dealership said told me the part that would fix my Jeep would be here today. When I saw the phone ring at 9am and it was the dealership, part of me thought, "this is it, I might get my Jeep back today!" Nope.... The part was delayed and shipping and won't be here until next week...
  17. Anyone have electrical issues? My Jeep started acting crazy today

    I’m on day 26 since dropping off my Jeep. They’re supposed to be receiving and installing a new electronic shift module before the end of the week which they hope will fix everything. Kicking around demanding a swap. This whole thing has me worried about long term reliability.
  18. New PCM part no. for 2021 3.6L?

    I can't help you with the part number question, but I'm curious if you'll share what issue you had with your Jeep that lead to a dealer trip in the first place? I had the "Service Shifter" pinball machine error and my truck has been in the dealership for nearly two weeks now. A new PCM was on...
  19. Quality Issues

    My poor experiences with Jeep are almost 20 years apart, but definitely have me wondering why I went back to them. I had a 2000 XJ Cherokee Sport with the inline 4.0. Drove it new off the lot with 7 original miles. I had numerous serious body corrosion issues with the vehicle over the course...
  20. Jeep sucks.... I have no idea how some of you have owned so many

    My 2021 Sport S is in the shop for the second time with this issue, first time at 9000 miles, now at 17000. First time they fiddled with fuses, cleared the codes and found nothing wrong. This time they can’t get the codes cleared. The tech says they opened a STAR case. I’ve seen so many of these...
