I dont know how pertinent this is to everyone on here, but i just wanted to throw it out for those wheelers whose vehicles are still able to be covered under warranty. This is a memo that local dealerships are passing around concerning a fellow wheeler in my local club (www.mpjai.com) he has an 02 rubicon, 6" FT LA and 35"mt/rs. prior to his modifications he had to have a transfercase worked on and a ring and pinion replaced under warranty. now he is having transmission trouble and wants to bring it in under warranty and the dealers are denying it using this (part of this is his commentary and part of it is the memo)
here is the link to the discussion over this crap in our club: http://mpjai.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.p...a69574f9db85610
Bobby is a very delicate driver with his rubi which i can vouch for and in no way abuses it like most people do their rigs, the commercials drive the jeeps harder than he does. i just wanted to get this out to the jeep owners and hopefully gain support for this garbage that DC has put jeep owners through in the past years
also note that the memo gives only his "hard driving" for reason to deny him service, not anything about his modifications
mods please move if you dont feel this belongs in the tech forum, i just wanted to make sure to get the attention of JEEP owners

I got a copy of the memo, it's suprising what you can get if you just ask. It states : First paragraph--- Lady and gents. In your spare time go up on this website, we may find sime of our problem jeeps up there signed James second paragraph-----In reguards to this customer, look at the website MPJAI.com the pictures show the reason for so many diff repairs. signed Bob Chamberlain (from casey) Lastparagraph----- Lady and Gents This owner has torn up 4 differentials and a transmission in 2 years. He was warned two diff repairs ago and he slipped into a different dealer. He has been denied and vehicle has been restricted for powertrain. He has been to Pomoco, Quinn, and Casey. Beware you may be his next stop. signed James end of memo You know it's funny, I've never had a problem with my transmission, I did have to get my xfer case " reconditioned" due to a noise and the only ring and pinion set i had replaced was on the december 10 service visit, which from looking at caseys history report , it appears they reported it twice on two seperate claim numbers. (The same relpair!) And it's that one ring and pinion set casey installed that without going off road , somehow broke a tooth on one of the gears. The only wheeling i did after the repair was when it snowed, me and paul cruised around to yorktown. I'm pretty sure the rubee should be able to handle snow covered roads.
