JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

That is complete bullcrap, they sold you the Jeep with all the mods on it and they should warrant the damn Jeep!!!

In Quebec, there is the Used Car Warranty (and light trucks). It's a provincial Law.

There is a 3 month warranty on any used car when it's purchased from a car dealer. EVEN if the Jeep is not covered by the Chrysler Warranty, the car dealer has to fix the Jeep within the 3 months.

Maybe you have something like that in your state

Report your incident to the NHTSA. Maybe Jeep will make welds that are worth a damn..

^^ x2 ^^ I agree with everything that has been said already.
I have had the same thing happen to me & it is a pain. To give some food for thought

* replace the front with this:

http://store.jksmfg.com/merchant2/me..._Code=FABParts

the stock parts on Jeep JK trackbar mounts are trash
ever since mine broke I have been on a mission to essentially replace the steering/suspension/entire underside of the Jeep

next - don't stop with the front ,do the rear as well with this:

http://store.jksmfg.com/merchant2/me..._Code=FABParts

...I also replaced my Trackbars w/ these:

http://store.jksmfg.com/merchant2/me...bar_Components

..The rear mount is junk as well..after what happened when mine broke I would tell ANYONE who has a JK even if it is not lifted to get these brackets ( at the least )..

I know they are not cheap but even if the dealer did fix it/replace it all they will do is replace it with more garbage..

hope this helps , I hate to see people put at risk because of spotty factory oversights.
