Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Purchased 6/26/19 w/ 49k mi; tapping noise develops at 54k; personal, highly qualified/experience mechanic referred me to dealer - tap was engine issue. On 10/14/19 dealer replaced lifters/cams/rockers (warranty until 10/20/19). Not normal on vehicle w/ only 55k. Dealer aware of cylinder misfires on jks but did no diagnostic test to determine why lifters/cams/rockers failed; did not perform inspection. Ten days later, cel with po302 (#2 misfire). Replaced plugs; coil code did not clear. Return to dealer who stated work was not related to previous work they just completed and acknowledged misfire is a common problem they routinely in wranglers they service. Dealer also stated the 2011-2013 tsb extended warranty also applied beyond those model years to other engines from specific production runs but would not provide info. Filed complaint with jeep cust care who said same - not under warranty, referred me back to dealer. Not asking jeep to repair engine with excessive mileage or wear - i am asking jeep to extend same coverage as 2011-2013 because jeep has not corrected the problem. No engine with 55k miles should need the extent of engine work i've had done with low mileage. There are numerous documented complaints of misfire for wrangler and class action suit filed for pentastar engine defects.
