Didnt know you were in phila, I'm about 20 mins outside philly. If you want, you can swing by my area and I'll give you a shock. Just replace it yourself, itll take you literally 10 mins.
Wow, thank you! I’m gonna give them one more week and if no updates and no loaner, I might have to take you up on your offer. It’s gonna take me atleast half a day to swap and I don’t have a garage, so I’m hesitant and idk if they’ll void warranty even though it’s the oem part.

The shock arrived, and the Jeep is finally back after 5 months. Glad to have the MT back but gonna miss the heated seats and steering wheel from the loaner

I used to stall once every two to three weeks during slow maneuvers. But today, on the way home, I took it to a car wash and stalled it 3 times on the guide rails while the employee was guiding to come closer. A Suzuki MT hatch that I had 10 years ago used to lug for 2 seconds before stalling, giving me enough time to catch the clutch. But the Jeep dies in a split second.

Get an idrive, if you don't have one already. Really helps with the throttle response. It will eliminate the stalling
