[Sigz]

Can someone share to the mechanical noobs here where to look for said connector to make sure it looks okay?

Yup.... 2024 Mojave is on the list.
Welp, we're going on vacation and leaving for Cape Cod on Sunday. I guess I'll leave it up to the 'powers above' to decide if we go unscathed for the week.

Happened to drop a delivery at the dealer today and know the service department good enough she looked mine up, nothing on her end for mine.

Check again

Today was the first day the Vin list was published. So No, it wouldn't have been there yesterday. Today was the official notification date with vins. There could have been some yesterday, but all notifications stated 6/11 for Vin lookup availability

On a positive note, does anyone know of a gladiator just catching fire? It seems like this would be the place to hear about it if it was super common. Oh, I know it is a concern or they wouldn’t perform the recall but I am not losing sleep over this. And I am retired so taking a vehicle in for recall work isn’t nearly an inconvenient as someone that has to juggle time off of work and/or child care. Even with two gladiators, it will all be alright. The pros still outweigh the cons!

yes!

Are we going to check in and announce if we are on the list?

Yes. We could beat “the last Jeep I’ll ever own” thread

Dirt Road Cred says this recall gets fixed when doing the AMW 5.7 Hemi install. lol

It also corrects the crappy steering. lol

Well I ran my vin 3 times, and the 3rd time it came back as in the recall. So as stupid as it sounds if you ran it and it came back clean I would do it again. I wonder if they are behind uploading all the VINs.

2023 Mojave here, input license plate number and it didn't show up, ran again using VIN and it showed up as recalled. Looks like they are inputting VIN info first.

If folks are really freaked out about the very slight chance their vehicle may catch fire while parked then yes, disconnecting the battery is an effective way of preventing this potential issue.

The sad thing is I fully expect the result of that action would be a sudden uptick in the number of blown Z fuses and posts about the dash being dead, vehicle won't start, etc.

I’d take blown fuses over burnt truck n house
Mine hasn’t worked sometimes. Might unhook it all together n try it out

My gladiator didn’t show up on the list until today. Keep checking.

Today was the first day it could show up...

Both my wife’s and mine are in the list, we have them parked by a out building we’d like to replace with a 4 car garage..

Just bought a 2022 Gladiator Rubicon EcoDiesel, sure enough I'm on the list. Oh well, and here I thought I was buying something safer than my 1998 GC 5.9

When is a forum member going to 3D print a part so we can all avoid Jeep dealerships?

I'd like to know also, just to get eyes on the harness. I won't be disconnecting and reconnecting the harness due to the nature of the problem... seems like asking for trouble.
