 Description of the problemRattling noise under the body-turned out the weld on the heat shield nneded to be rewelded brake lines were being rubbed through by the tires-new brake lines had been updated to steel and route close to the body instead of rubber ones that route close to the tire "hot oil" light comes on. Dealership said to add an additional transmission cooler as the factory one is insufficient. Tmps low tire light and sentry key light come on and off together repeatedly. In park the lights would flash, honr honks, windshield wipers front in back would turn on and srpay fluid, clicking noise and burning smell from fuse box, fan and accessories would run without being turned on. These would occur when the vehicle was started or when a door would be opened even with no key in the ignition. Dealership said tipm was going out. I found this is a very common problem. All of these issues are safety hazards and through simle research have found a common problem for jk wranglers.
