Goodies from FCA

[TomH]

I think it all depends on the dealer. I got the standard oil changes and tire rotations. 4 each. That was from FCA most likely. And from the dealer I got a 100,000 mile power train warranty and some kind of ceramic coat.

Yes, I thought it was standard but I got them in my welcome package they gave us at the dealership we bought ours from.Bought mine February 2020, I thought everyone got them. Mine also came with 4 free oil changes plus 6 more more from the dealership. I have 87,000 miles on line and still haven't changed the oil once myself. 1 more free one and I'll be buying the $399 oil change package from my dealership that gives me 6 more. Worth it for me.

Yep, I got the pen as well.

Incoming. Can't tell if it's a skinny envelope or a thicker package.

Dealer tried to upsell the tracker (Stargard I think) for $2k. Told him no deal. Last thing I need is something to follow me around with thirty days storage. They said they removed it but I can't dive under the dash due to a bad back. I tried to log in to the web site with the VIN and it didn't work so I guess it's gone.?

Yeah, I get it. It makes sense for some to do the maintenance packages. We bought a package for my wife's Hyundai and it covered us all the way up to 5 yrs/100K miles. It was worth doing for her since I traveled a lot the last 3 years and wouldn't be there to do most of what was needed.

I'm a mechanic by trade and hobby, so I don't mind (and prefer) doing the Jeep work myself. Already in the middle of rebuilding a Commander, so an oil change/tire rotation on the JT doesn't bother me.

This is all new to me! Love a good writing pen.

Same here. And I've bought two of them (Gladiators) and a very expensive JLU from them in the past 5 years - and all I got was some free oil changes and 3 tracking devices.

New ones come with only 2 oil changes now.
My first one came with 4 and no paint. My wife got the touch up paint with her 21 and 3 oil changes. The new one came with 2 oil changes and no paint (yet?).

Out of the 3, only one had a tracking device. Dealer said it just happened to be installed by the original ordering dealer, they bought the truck as surplus from that some dealer out of Cali. They told me it was there and offered to remove it, but I said no because I wanted the honor lol. Didn't try to sell me any service and seemed apologetic that it was there. (Love my dealer, I know I'm one of the few).

Well, I did buy mine back in November, so give it some time. It was addressed from FCA Greensboro, NC not my dealer, so maybe it's something they started doing more recently.

I bought my Jeep in North Carolina. No pen for me!!

It might be for writing if the kids got ahold of it ? ?

Wonder if it would be good for the self-inflicted ding on the edge of my right "freedom panel".
I took the panels off last summer and was carrying them - over my head - to another part of the garage to set them down on a blanket (the only 2 square feet of open space in the garage).
I forgot all about a steel bracket I had attached to the rafters for hanging an LP "salamander heater) I used to use - SMACK goes the drip rail part of the panel against that steel angle - CHIP. Probably too small a touch-up pen for that ding, though.

That is exactly why I didn't want paint-matched top. I passed up a lot of nice Rubicons because of it. I knew I wouldn't be careful enough.

Received this in the mail today. Kinda cool, considering these pens are pretty expensive. Anyone else get this kit after buying a new JT?

I got mine about 2 weeks ago . It's a nice touch and now I have some 37's and chips on my hinges and this will help clean them up . Thanks Jeep
