My 2020JTR has one touch down front windows, so that is an availability and possible flash if yours does not have it.

Also when I push button to shut engine off, all electrical components stay on for 45 seconds or so. I can use windows and radio stays on. If I want it on longer, I just push button once and it goes to ACC.

Both of these issues you have may be correctable in the VIC on your dash. The owners manual may help.

Try the acc position when trying to listen to radio with jeep off, and search for the thread on the 3M window controller install for these things, one touch ghost windows and works with the remote, lock and insure all windows up in one motion.

Yeah, the head rest thing is interesting. I see the same angled non- adjustable on several new vehicles. This must be a new safety standard.
Man, it’s terrible. I can’t make my body fit right into the angle unless I slouch. Wish I could sit straight up

The 45 seconds would be perfect, that’s all I need and what I’m used to in other vehicles I’ve had. Can I change it to 45 seconds in the settings?
Also, windows do go down in the front but not the rear ones and they also do not to go back up.

Power stay on after shut off can be set to different time lengths in the setting menu.

The front have 1 touch down. Back don't. None have 1 touch up for safety. I had cars with 1 touch up.

Try pulling the headrests all the way out and simply reversing them. This angle is much more friendly.

Wait until they have that first service appointment where they get a small loaner. I frequently feel like I am driving a go cart with loaners.

I've had a loaner Pacifica, Cherokee, but now the dealership has a Gladiator to loan.

I have the same issue. I tried raising the headrest, turning it backwards and seeing if the back seat headrest would fit. The backseat headrest is adjustable but doesn’t fit in the front. I took it out and straightened it some, but have to do a little more.
