Howdy all. Took the Jeep in to get a partial 30K maintenance tune up at the dealer where I bought the Jeep. I did the oil change myself to save about $100.
I had them check the front and rear axles and transfer case fluid. It was ok. I had them change out the two fuel filters. Service manager argued with me that it only had one. I said it had two. Once up in the air, the tech saw that their was two...and that they order the wrong one (Jeep spent two nights in the shop).
I could hear a rattle coming from the (what I thought ) was the passenger door area. Ended up being the rear dosing fuel nozzle hitting under the vehicle. Tech re positioned and the sound is gone.
Washer fluid light never went out. I think I put some bad washer fluid in (prestone de icer or something like that)...so just using blue washer fluid from now on. Ended up shorting out the washer fluid sensor. I argued again with the service manager and got that changed out for free. Why should it matter what brand/type of washer fluid I use? He went on saying that it specifies in my manual what to use. Yeah, ok, Wal Mart, Auto Zone or whoever, doesnt carry that Mopar washer fluid and I m not paying extra for dealer brand stuff. Bad enough I dish out $28 for a 2.5 gallon jug of Mopar DEF fluid.
They updated the transmission software. No noticeable effect there.
Had them check my front hubs..they hum going around a corner...nothing found there.
Here are things they found and replaced under warranty...maybe somebody can translate for me what this is.
Perform rapid respons # 15-093 Perform RRT Replace converter and sensors, 68243268-AB, 68249511-AB, 68249512-AB, PCM reflash.
HUH?
Did they replace my cat? They said they had a hard time with fasteners being rusted (already??) and had to break/weld back on. ALL I KNOW IS...MY MPG WENT FROM 28MPG TO 21 MPG (avg last two tank fulls)!! and the Jeep seems to have lost power.
I ll call them today and see what they say.
I ll keep you all posted. So far, no codes on the dash.
