I had 2 TSBs I wanted completed before the expiration of the 3/36 bumper to bumper warranty. I took it in Monday to get the 5" radio firmware update to fix the slow clock. While they had it, they also replaced both batteries. My service advisor told me they will honor the 3 year warranty on the new batteries. Next week it goes in for the A pillar water leak TSB.
Dumb question but we’re the old batteries bad?

$30 Oracle pods for turn signals/running lights. Few dollars on screws and washers. Created my own fender flare supports out of scrap 1" x 1" nylon. I did just spend another $10 to black out all of the white in the wheel well. Rubi and Max Tow have 2pc fender flares thats easy to do fender chop (exterior mods section of this forum)

Holy shit, it took me two days of searching to find this post again.
Thinking of doing a chop for more clearance, but I was hoping to keep the OEM light.
How hard would it be to do this and keep the front part with the light? Or is that not possible..

Depends on if you have 2 piece fenders. If you split 2 piece, the housing for OEM comes out with the bottom half. Sorry, I didn't look at your profile to see what you have.

+1 for Coincidence but today I headed up to big bear to do some snow wheeling that was a big fail, while waiting dead stopped on the 38 my wife noticed the rear window that slides open leaking :mad: . Was wondering why my windows were foggying up quickly. Off to the dealership this week.

unpleasant but at least you found it before it was a major issue. Its been a while but there have been some pretty bad stories on the foums over the years about water getting in and damaging stuff stored under the seats and such. I have a 2020 but think I unintentionally dodged a bullet. When I first got my JT i opened that windown and there must have been some metal shavings or something in the plastic trim because the glass got scratched up pretty bad. The dealer replaced the entire rear window under warranty.
