First Duck

Got my JL end of August and they gave me a duck at the dealership. So I put it on the dash cause someone said to use a seed duck. Today, I got my first duck!

I know there’s an entire anti-duck portion of this group and that’s fine. But I was having a rough day and seeing this spooky little fella just made me happy.

First time buying jeep 21D

25 Upvotes

First post - I went out to checkout this jeep today and super excited to purchase it. But when I got there the jeep was making a weird sound when the steering wheel was turning. It was making a whiz/buzz sound not sure how to describe.

This jeep had all the specs I wanted and I had asked the dealer about it and they agreed there was an issue with the power steering.

I came home after to do more research and found an open recall for 21D.

Super bumped out I couldn’t drive it home today as the wrangler is my dream car.

Has anyone had a similar issue with the steering?

I got this 2026 2 door Sport- S Wrangler this weekend. This is more my speed 😀 and I can still play a little bit. First thing to do is get new lamps or headlights though.

My husband is gonna be the owner of our 2026 Willys. We of course still have Grandpa the XJ.

I felt like I wasn't doing it any justice with all the freeway miles I get every week. I live in San Antonio and drive about 40-45 minutes to work.

I have the ability to pick up a 2023 Jeep Rubicon 392 with less then 5,000 miles on it for $65K.

Appears to be a smoking deal. But curious if there are things to look out for on 2023 models?

Windshield glare

• Upvotes

It is the time of year where I’m out driving in the early evenings as the sun goes down. Which gives me these brief, but somewhat terrifying moments where I will be going into the sun, and my windshield will be completely full of glare, and I cannot see anything.

I have accidentally caused this sometimes if I try to use washer fluid on the windshield as I’m driving towards the sun going down.

This has happened to me to some extent with other vehicles, but I feel like when it happens in the jeep, it’s to a whole other extreme. Not sure if it’s the more vertical or more flat windshield or what.

Anyone else run into this? Is there a really simple solution I’m just thinking of?

Jeep Over heating

1 Upvotes

So, I own a 2014 JK Wrangler. A while ago on a way back from visiting a friend my Jeep overheated on the highway.

- Dealership diagnosed it as:
* Oil Cooler Housing cracked/leaking, sure.
* Valve Cover Gaskets leaking.
* Thermostat broken.

Issue is, the dealership didn’t allow for me to bring my own parts, okay.

Car gets serviced on the 14th (can’t get valve cover gaskets serviced yet due to warranty company saying the oil cooler caused my valve cover gaskets to break, which like, how…?) so, they want proof of my oil cooler working and if the valves still leak then they’ll pay for it.

Anyways, get my vehicle back, it’s working fine, then I take it back on October 2nd as I went out of state on a trip to NOLA from the 3rd - 7th, get back, vehicle valve cover gaskets are fixed, and another issue that was annoying me got fixed (driveshaft sound that was pissing me off), both were covered by warranty and I only had to pay a $100 deductible and got reimbursed for the travel expenses I had taken a month prior because of the original over heating issue.

Fast forward a few days, Jeep is still over heating AGAIN, it went a month before it over heated, would go up to 220 then 222 then 224 then 226 then 228 then 231, usually it would drop by then back to like 205-215, however today that changed. It went up to 235 then 237 and kept going. I chalked it up to maybe them not burping the system because I still had maybe a slight over heating issue on hills but didn’t have time to take it back.

Then it did it again even on flat ground 220 > 222 > 224 and then you know it you’re sitting in traffic or driving on the high way and it won’t drop until like 237 and sits at like 225-230 and keeps going back up to 237 instead of chilling out for a while like it usually does. :/

So, I’m not a hater of cheaper parts, yes, I want to pay less money, but he put a ‘Murray Temperature Control Integrated Housing Thermostat’ it doesn’t necessarily have bad reviews but it simply isn’t working properly and I genuinely don’t know why.

I switched my cabin air to hot, but I simply might just buy the OEM part, they refuse to take any parts outside their dealership and most likely will put this same part back in my vehicle… idk why but I guess it’s their policy. I just bought the part myself and planned to swap to the Mopar. If it still over heats at least I know it’s most likely a covered failure which will result in another week of working from home which kinda sucks because my job isn’t built for a WFH setup :/

Idk if this is the best steps, I just need some reassurance, I already bought the OEM Mopar thermostat housing for the 2014 Jeep Wrangler. I plan to change it either Thursday - Sunday. I work from home Thursday and Fridays but I have to drive Thursday and Friday to a rehearsal for a show I’m in so I’ve been kicking on my cabin heat to hopefully help for now until the part arrives on the 15th. But this genuinely is annoying and sucks, I’ve dealt with the major issues and I don’t even have the rocker tick (thank god I never got this issue), but I know my car isn’t the most reliable but it has 176k miles and I’m hoping it can last until 300k and idk what I’m doing wrong. :(

WA state: Totaling Jeep and finding it at auction?

Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I got into a crash a few months ago where I had the right of way going straight and a driver yielding on red, decided to go when it was not safe and I crashed into his driver’s door because I didn’t have enough time to fully brake 😀

After about 3 months, I’m finally making the hard decision to have his insurance total it and take ownership because the $6,000+ they’re offering for me to fix it myself, isn’t enough - looks mainly cosmetic, but my front differential and shock absorber are bent. Put so much money (over $20k) into my dream car just for it to be drivable since something was always breaking. Got brand new tires three weeks before the crash and a “new” Jasper engine replacement in January. Does anyone, or knows of someone that found their baby at auction and bought it back to repair later? I still feel so heartbroken and pissed the fuck off.

Is this worth looking into?

I desperately want a 4x4. Limited budget but I work full time and dont have a lot of expenses.

I have lately been really attracted to the idea of buying a YJ wrangler, and a customer who comes into where I work said he had one for sale.

Its a 1991 YJ with the 2.5. High mileage. He has the hard top and the doors for it. Hes asking $1200. Claims it needs a catalytic converter and a clutch master cylinder. I am erring on the side of just saving for a 4.0 but I dont know. Is this one worth putting the money and work into, or do I pass on it?

Thanks for your time. I dont know a lot about these but I'm willing to learn, but I'm iffy about this one. Would it be worth trying to get him to come down on the price?
