Oil pressure light issues

[StingrayJed]

Good morning, I just dropped my 21 JTD off for the 6th time for oil light coming on at times for the last 24k miles, I now have 30700 miles on it and still have oil light after they told me the flash would fix it this time. I've been really paying attention to the pressures for quite some time. In all temp ranges, I never see start up oil pressure higher than 22psi and have seen it as low as 18psi. What is everyone else's oil pressure at start up and warm idle? I feel at least with engine cold it should be much higher than this.... Thanks for any assistance the group can give me.

My 2022 JTD just had the oil pressure warning light come on this morning during my commute. Only 4200 miles on it. Talking with dealer now.

Good Luck, mine is currently waiting on an oil cooler and oil pump, but they still admit they don't know if that will cure it or not... Jeep Care really needs to change to Jeep Don't Care

A quick follow-up: Dealer said it was 1.25 quarts low. "They tend to burn more oil during break in..." They added oil. Checked oil pressure. Said everything checks out. No charge as it's still under warranty @ ~4200 miles. Hopefully that's the end of it.

The more interesting sidenote is that 2 out of 3 dealerships in the Seatle area failed to even take my call when attempting to get service:

Dealer #1: Rairdon's Dodge Chrysler Jeep of Kirkland
"Press one for the service department" -> pressing 1 hangs me up every time. Left a vmail in the phonetree for "If you have an issue with service...". Never got a call back.

Dealer #2: Autonation Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Bellevue
Selecting service department sends me straight to vmail. Never got a call back.

Dealer #3: Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM of Seattle
Answered my first call attempt with a live person. Took a message and promised to call me back. Service department called me back 6 minutes later and scheduled me for the next day. Super friendly staff. This is clearly where I'll be getting my maintenance and warranty service from.
