So just as an update, our rear end actually cracked open. We were driving on a friend's driveway with a few inches of snow and heard some pretty horrible noises. Didn't realize how bad it was until the tow truck arrived. Before the incident happened, there was a long trail of gear fluid leading...

Bump

I just worry that if things "fix themselves", they almost always come back. Hopefully it had something to do with the software updates.

Update: More snow today... a crap-ton, actually (+16" or so). I plowed the driveway, but there was still as much snow at the bottom of the hill... if not more. The Jeep rolled right up. I didn't even have to get a running start. So either the updates they made to the computer(s) helped, or that...

I used to get thread notifications, but on my last thread, not a single one. I searched my inbox not a single one since last January (though I haven't posted too much). Anyways, I looked in my spam filter and searched for anything from what I believe is the admin email address, but nothing was...

Thanks for all the replies. I wasn't aware anyone wrote back because I never seem to get notifications from here. Glad I came back and looked. I'm going to keep this page open to ensure I see replies. Sorry for that. I'll try and hit all the topics. TLDR: Pretty sure it's the tires. I'm just...

We've had our 2021 Grand Cherokee L Summit Reserve for almost exactly one year now. Until this morning, it has been an absolute tank in the snow. All last year, we drove it straight up our steep, switchback driveway without a single issue... on the stock tires. I've never even had to disable...

Does anyone have a picture of their blacked out SR yet? I just sent the list of all the parts on the first page to my local parts department to see what they can do price-wise. I tried to order a while back, but so many things were out of stock, I ended up cancelling the whole order. Still...

@JeepCares Are there any plans to address this issue? As you can see from our posts, we're approaching this scientifically, and the issue clearly is not the things you posted about. Jeep needs to address this. We paid for this, and it's a shame that Jeep chose hardware that doesn't work with...

Hey, everyone. I was thinking no one had replied. I wasn't getting notifications (via email) so I went in my options and realized it wasn't a default, like most other forums. Probably a good thing for unwanted email, but I missed these replies... so I apologize. I have the V8. There is more...

There really doesn't seem to be anything for the 5.7L on the market, other than a few places listing the ProCharger P1SC kit. Personally, I'd rather have a positive-displacement blower on this particular vehicle, but would entertain the ProCharger if I could get the D1SC (had the P1SC on another...

It seems to work fine with iPhones (guessing all it was actually tested with), but only half the US population has iPhones... the rest have Androids. Developers/engineers seem to ignore that little fact, since iPhones are easier to develop for, due to tightly controlled hardware and software...

@JeepCares This is not an issue of too many apps open, or a key fob in the same area of the phone. Anyone (iPhone or Android) can download Ampere and see the amperage actually coming into the phone. Most of the time, there is only 30 mA coming into the phone (which is essentially nothing). The...

Yeah.... I think I'll bring the parts list to the dealer and see what they can do. I'm sure it'll be back ordered (they said the Jeep brand all-weather mats couldn't even be ordered until Feb), but maybe they can come close price-wise. Still looking for a few other pieces: - Exhaust/tailpipe...

Yup. Same grayish/brushed aluminum color. It probably would look good on a silver car. I think it's dumb we can't have options like that... especially if we're ordering the car from the factory. Waste of time, money, shipping costs, fuel, etc. Here are some pics:
