| Description of the problem | Twice, end of may 2019 and february of 2020 i had scheduled oil changes done at same dealer. By the end of those days, jeep would not run, check engine light blinking and would barely start, not run. Both times towed back to dealership, both times under warranty. First time i was told a broken valve spring and valve cover had leaked oil into ignition system. Valve spring/cover work covered, tune up and redoing ignition system not...? Was told to contact manufacturer, they told me to contact dealer. This time(2/2020) towed in, took six days to be told broken valve spring/valve cover but also a defective cylinder head. Also told cylinder head on back order, could be months. Vehicle is maintained according to manufacturers schedules, don't do tractor pulling with it, this appears to be a known defective, just like the bad radiators or heating system gooped up with sand. Thank you. |
