Was going to go help a buddy fill up fuel tanks with what’s going on in the news this evening…. Guess I’m not.

My Viking 450 jump box cried when I tried to start the 3.0 with 9.2 bolts showing on the v-meter

My buddy sent his son over to jump me off with his NOCO GB150 with 3000amps and the ability to jump up to a 7L diesel. It giggled at the 3.0. I swear it started before I hit the start button.

drove it to the dealer after 2 1/2 hours they came out and told me the batteries were fine but they gave it a good charge.

I made another Amazon purchase.

The average life expectancy of batteries in the JT is about three years. One or both of yours are at the end of their useful life. They have to actually fail the prescribed test procedure before Jeep will approve a warranty replacement.

I would suggest this Amazon purchase:

ACDelco Gold 94RAGM (88864542) 36 Month Warranty AGM BCI Group 94R Battery https://a.co/d/9UPDdDG

ACDelco Gold AUX14-200 36 Month Warranty Auxiliary AGM 200 CCA Battery https://a.co/d/9CIOhMv

Awesome I appreciate it. I’ll give them one more shot on Monday morning and then I’ll hit Amazon.

Any reason you know of…why it says these batteries don’t fit a ‘21 Gladiator with a 3.0L???

I would guess it's a glitch in the Amazon system. The 94R (H7) is the largest size that will fit the JT/JL battery tray, but the default for many of the models is the smaller H6 battery. The Aux14 size is used across all the Jeep models.

Working from the dealership this morning.

they just tested the batteries and stated they read low again. Don’t know if they’ll look at the alternator since it’s not throwing that code. Service tech stated she’s going to try and do a good will battery replacement or at least request it from management so I don’t have to sit here another 3-4 hrs. We’ll see. I also asked them to check the wiring harness that drops on that side of the block to see if there’s any chaffing. I really don’t think they’ll find anything since again I’m not dropping a bunch of codes. I’ve also disconnected both radios and pulled the Maxi fuses from the ARB. The lady mentioned they may have caused parasitic loss…I didn’t want to give them that excuse again…

I got a baby battery…
