Recall: 1M+ Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator Fire Risk (June 9, 2026)

[Bandit’s Lair]

I was told by my dealer I could not wait for the inspection I had to leave it. They said if parts and labor are needed it could take the day. Anyone else told this?

Do they not have a waiting area? That’s ridiculous. It literally takes under an hour to do!!

Dealer probably doesnt even know what they are looking at / need to do. Probably just know some guy wants a thing looked at - shoo him away leave the truck worry about it later.

After working for a vehicle manufacturer for many years, on the production, supervision, and sales side - I have learned there are great communicators and problem solvers, and folks that just want whatever is going on and the customer out of their hair, lol.

Last night I went over to my mother inlaws to check on her lawn mower. Found a rotten fuel hose, ordered a 4ft section on Amazon.
Figured while I was there, I'd check on her power steering pump wiring, especially since she parks in the garage. Welp, it looked just fine, right as rain. She has a 21 Wrangler unlimited Sahara diesel.
That's 3 for 3 I've checked that have been fine.

How can a Jeep dealer not be busy?

Yark in Toledo, OH will tell you 6-12 month wait to have bubbling paint fixed.

had mine inspected on Wed; all good no issues so no repair was needed in my case

So since my inspection, my back up camera has been black every time and thats never happened. I left the Tazer installed and I wonder if I need to just unmarry it and see if that fixes the problem or if they messed it up worse. This is why I don't go to dealership. Went from 10% of the time I get a black screen to 100% in reverse. I'm starting to think the Tazer is the problem. I reached to them to see their thoughts.

Dealer did mine yesterday while doing an oil change, came home today to the recall notice in the mail.
Still loving the thing and no problems other then diff sensor at 90 miles, and drivers visor at 43,000.

I'd bet that the visual inspection has nothing to do with your camera issue.

Yeah I knew that, but I was thinking when they put their thing in the OBD port maybe? I don't know.

I went this morning to get my oil changed, no appointment, just showed up. Because in my mind I'm important like that. They set me straight. Every time. 2 hour backup. She said she'll call me when my time gets close.

I asked about the Recall and I was told the same thing you were told. She said she'll find out when it can be looked at and she'll also put me on the loaner car list. I said, "THAT long to look at it ?" She said, "Nope, but if they want to do something, at least you'll have a loaner ready and not have to sit around here all day.". Kinda nice.

So then I asked about the corrosion issue. She went out and took a few pictures of areas of concern. She has to file the report with Stellantis, she'll get with me when they respond.

All in all, this dealership is pretty decent.

So I only rebooted the Tazer because my 3 Honk Kill was not longer working. Now my backup camera works. Tazer said for me to unmarry and then reconnect the security gateway connectors (plug). If it continues after this then it's the backup camera.
