First Misfire code thrown at 400 miles

[GladiatorKOKO]

I have owned my 2021 Gladiator Rubicon for 2 weeks and it's been flat bedded back to the dealership twice and is still sitting there. First misfire code thrown at 400 miles. The dealership replaced the coil and plug on cylinder #1 and told me that it was an easy fix and it was all set. They delivered it back to my home (about 30 miles away) the following day. About an hour after getting the Gladiator back into my possession, I decided to take it for a quick ride. I was about 50 yards from my home and it threw the code again and was running exceptionally rough. The dealership flat bedded me a loaner car last Friday and took my Gladiator back to the dealership. The dealership is stating that they are escalating the matter with Jeep corporate. I have advised them that I am not interested in this truck coming back to me, and that they need to make this right. So far everything is going very professionally and amicable. Hope that this manner continues!

I have contacted Jeep Customer Care and have a case number. Sick to my stomach over this mess. To my current knowledge, the dealership is further diagnosing the issue.

Uggghh I was hoping they had this fixed for the 2021 models...but it seems like they still don't. I REALLY wanted to order one this winter but I think it would be best to wait until there is more evidence of an actual fix being implemented. I want the Gladiator to be a cross country adventure vehicle, but reports like this give me great concern about getting stranded in a remote location far away from home. So sorry this happened to you. I look forward to hearing any updates you can share once you have them.
