Good luck. I had terrible luck. 2 different dealerships and 5 weeks. Thankfully they fixed it and I’ve been trouble free for 11,000 miles. The star cases were a joke and so was jeepcares
Good to hear you finally got it sorted and you are still here somehow! ?

Yes it’s fixed. It was at 2 shops for over 5 weeks. They went through both batteries and all fuses. Came back to a issues in a harness near the front passenger wheel
Glad to hear it’s fixed. Go get it dirty. You’ll be smiling for hours.

Go buy a Kia, then come back and tell us what sucks.
Along those lines, I have a funny Hyundai story.

My wife owned a sonata before we met. It once had a recall, the funniest, and yet most terrible one I can recall. They recalled all the oil pan dip sticks because they were too long. I stood there dumbfounded and asked the service person how they were going to address the fact that it’s had too little oil for 20,000 miles. She just looked at me confused, and stated, “No, we’re just putting in shorter dip sticks”. I then had to explain the concept of dip sticks to her. It was hilarious. We traded it a month later.

I’ll be on my 4th: CJ-7, TJ, JKU, and waiting on JT. They may all suck in their own way, but it’s like finding a hooker you just can’t stay away from. You know it’s wrong, but keep going back...... I guess they both suck in a good way!

Best response ever. Something so wonderful makes you not care about the shortcomings. I certainly don’t.

Well, there used to be a TV series called TJ Hooker
Maybe the OP can rename his Gladiator to JT Hooker.

It came to me after reading Chuck's post above.
And sadly, it does give a range to how old I am, since I remembered the show.
:LOL:

First question. How many Jeeps have you owned to know that they all suck? Second question. Have you ever thought that maybe it's just your jeep? You do realize they're built by humans who aren't perfect. If it has wheels and it rolls, you will have issues. I've owned 11 different vehicles from over 5 differen manufacturers and I've had issues with all of them. The worst being my Bronco, Toyota, and Honda. My Bronco pissed me off so bad, I snatched the engine and dropped in a 302. If you don't want issues from any vehicle, you're gonna have to walk. Sorry, you're having problems! I know you're just upest, pissed, and venting. Hope you get taken care of.
You should read the entire thread before posting. It’s long but covers a lot of what happened, how it was resolved and a lot of stupid posts by some.
It was fixed in April.

Then sell yours or drive it off a cliff and get off a forum like this just to spread sh!t.

Omg, keyboard warrior to the max.
Read the thread, the dude was just blowing off steam after a shitty deal with his rig. How is this spreading shit? A little sensitivity training is in order for you hmmmm?

I just read the opening post, not pages and pages of jibber jabber.

Why even post that they"suck" and how can you guys buy them, etc? Sounds to me like HE was being the keyboard warrior.

If someone wants to just bitch, fine go ahead and bitch but why involved everyone on a forum that only exists for enthusiasts of the very thing you're bitching about?

To your point, didn't TJ just go into space at 90 years old?

To be fair, your post (& mine) added to the "jibber jabber." Just saying.
