I’m planning to remove these poster board thin inner fenders when I upgrade my tires and add something metal and nice. Until then, I went the tie wrap and push pen approach for now to buy me time before this rub destruction happens to me. Here are some pictures of what I did to tighten things up under there temporarily. I hope it helps as a preventative maintenance for now.

Hi RSK,
I have gone ahead and added this concern to your current open case. I also wanted to make you aware that there is an RRT
(19-063) addressing this that your VIN falls under.

Hello, does anyone know if the issue has happened in the back? or is it just the front? My JT just entered KZ status so I'm looking at starting to purchase parts.
Also, I found some front inner fenders that I like, but they are for a JK 2007-2018 does anyone know if they will fit the JT?

Had the fender liners replaced with aluminum ones. Chrysler sent out a check for the after market replacements. They were not cheap.

I don’t care if you believe me. Why so negative.

Sincerely,

I just got mine replaced at the dealership for free apparently there’s a recall on them.

Looks 10 times better (Don’t have a before because I didn’t know they were going to replace it)
