Description of the problem	The check engine light came on and it decodes to a cylinder misfire. I took it to the dealer and they said the cylinder had low compression. It is out of warranty and they want to charge me well over $2000 to fix it. I am reporting this because i found out this is a common problem in these engines, so much so that chrysler issued a tsb on it, however the tsb only covers up to 2013 and mine is a 2014. Apparently they thought they fixed it, but perhaps they didn't get it quite right, or didn't cover enough years. See chrysler jeep tsb 09-002-14 for reference. Please note while this issue did not cause an immediate safety concern, my research indicates that not fixing it promptly will cause un-burnt fuel to pass through the engine which is likely to cause catalytic converter failure. Due to the extreme expense to fix this known issue, people will be unwilling or unable to pay to get it fixed right away, and that in turn could lead to various safety risks, not to mention pollution controls issues.
