New Mojave - Multiple leaks

[GaryL]

Welcome to the Jeep family, I have a 2020 Gladiator and it “weeps”from those same rubber stoppers…51,000 miles later every thing still fine. Have the dealer review under warranty but don’t worry my friend

Brand new Mojave X less than 2K on the clock. Was installing mud flaps yesterday and noticed multiple oil leaks. Rear main seal, trans pan, and other fittings hookup points on parts that I don't know what they are. And the coolant level is low so it's probably leaking coolant as well. Didn't see any leaks at the oil filter housing up top. All below. Made in America. Sheesh

What does America have to do with this?

Have had Japanese cars that leaked, as well as a German engineered French built truck that currently leaks..



Rear main leaks are known to occur on the JT, although not super common, mine has a very slight weep and has not posed any issue in 3 years. I would get yours reviewed and it will surely be a warranty claim. It happens..

Friday afternoon at quitting time Jeep.

Hey, from a positive point of view, your fluids will never get old.

Probably assembled on a Friday. Take it to the dealer and have them fix it.

Just don't take it to the dealer on a Friday. Tuesday would be the sweet spot.

I’d bring it back… my 22 is dry underneath. Crazy to me that people on here will defend jeep for this pore craftsmanship.

Fare enough. I'm just frustrated. If it was one leak fine. But this is multiple which to me is just crazy on a brand new vehicle.

I agree with American made issues. As Americans we expect better, and should expect better, from American manufacturers and workers. There used to be this thing called pride. Unfortunately, a lot of our people have lost that along the way, and it shows in American made products. Also, the manufacturers sending a lot, if not most of the work overseas. It’s disgusting. Screw the global economy and the global agenda.

You have every right to be frustrated, I would be pissed. Take it in under warranty and get it fixed. I doubt they’ll want to fix it…we are talking about a company that created a diaper to catch the leaks on the Ram 2500’s and 3500’s between the transmission and motor.

To me, it's crazy that people say this is common, expected, many do this and so on.
It's not rocket science. It's the same sort of seals and configurations that have been used in millions of vehicle for years - and most do not leak. It should not be expected nor accepted.
I still also say it's not "common". We have only owned one Jeep in decades that has ever leaked anything - and that was resolved.

Bring this back and demand they fix it or give you another one with no leaks. A brand new vehicle shouldn't have this much fluids leaking.

Yeah it is going to be painted in Gold Flake metallic , and have a 392 V8 with 37" tires and a standard transmission

My 2019 JL 3.6 with 65K, 2023 JT Diesel with 27K. Not a single leak from either. Hell, the only thing leaking from my 2000 TJ is the rear main, which those 4.0 are notorious for.
With only 2K, I would absolutely be taking it to the dealer.
