| Description of the problem | Engine ticking on left side. This seems to be a common problem with the 3. 6 penstar engine. I've taken it to two different jeep dealerships and both of them said pretty much that this is something i'll just have to deal with. That is totally unacceptable. This was over a 30 thousand dollar investment. This jeep didn't have this problem when i purchased it otherwise i wouldn'thave bought it. Looking to the nhtsa for a solution. |
