Is this truck under warranty?

Might there be lemon law problems for FCA if they don't get it back on the road?

I might hang that over their head to motivate them.

Unless they gave me an equivalent or better loaner. Then I'd be happy to wait and put miles on their vehicle.

For anyone else that needs this. The alternator has one bolt that requires a External torx or you can remove the fan shroud like I did. Warning about mud it was concrete and everywhere. I mean this happened a month ago and I’m semi clean engine bay. Also the signal wire to the alternator requires a pick to raise the lock and slide it off. I learned the hard way.
Just from your thread here, and posts/comments, I have a feeling you're a fun, rather relaxed guy. Must be great at Jeep gatherings.
And now some of us out here have learned from your experience.
I'll wrap the front of my Jeep in Tyvek before I hit the mud hole.

I saw on Expo Everland, A company makes a front clear cover that you can put over to assist with water crossings. I wonder if that would have helped here lol. Also, I like your celebratory song.

For the amount of technical knowledge I have you would think I did that, but in reality….I wanna do hood rat things with my friends is what popped in my head.
I think I just found my new best friend ?
