"SERV 4WD System" is related to remote start

[djpheer]

In my 5500 miles or so with my 2022 Grand Cherokee L Overland, i have noticed a trend. I get the "SERV 4WD System" only if the car was remote started and then driven for a while. (maybe 10+ miles) It seems repeatable to some extent. I have never gotten this alarm without remote starting. Anyone else notice this or have a solution?

Did you ever get this figured out? We have a 21 SR, took it to service to have oil changed and they did a flash for the EPS. So far it’s only doing when using remote start, actually makes a lot of noise and acts like 4wd is engaged with front tire biting when turning.

I would be cautious about driving it with such a defect…

To be honest It hasn't done it now since I posted this (probably 10,000 miles later or so). It did it a handul of times in the first 5000 miles and now seems to have stopped. Not worth it for me to bring it in at this point since even when it did (rarely) happen, it was gone by the next engine restart.
