Man I hope they straighten this up. The quality and service I have gotten from jeep is far from good. I don't think I could buy another one if it caught fire with one of my family driving it. Jeep should make this good.

Yup. I know of that same "O" town dealership. (It would be a crazy coincidence if dealership name happened to be the town that is listed below my avatar to the left! 
) That dealership SUUUUCKS. I have had nothing but bad experiences and rude, uncaring behavior from them. If I HAVE to go to a dealership, Overland Park Jeep is where I usually go.

I'm still @ camp, trying to find signal when I can. Chrysler Legal told me in May that 'they are not involved, not a Chrysler issue. ' Will it be an issue when start losing customers? China stopped importing Wranglers due to transmission fires, are their lives worth than ours?
I'll be home tomorrow, but don't expect any news, my wife hasn't received any calls since I originally posted.

Should we be keeping the 2 fire issues separate?? One is a manufacturer defect, the other a crappy repair by a technician?? Kinda the same (tranny, tranny lines), but different. Seems like the dealership should be held responsible in this situation, like if the lot boy drove your car thru the dealership window, it wouldn't be Jeeps fault. I think the dealership should pay, and I guess Jeep should make sure they do...

"That is the subject of the letter people are getting addressing the cooler lines "weeping".
I don't think that is the cause of any fires."
Thats wrong whether its weeping, seeping or leaking, when going down the road at 60 or 80 mph, the wind will blow ATF everywhere, soaking the undercarrage, from the exhaust to the rear bumper. And if you let a weep go long enough it will collect.

A "weeping" line, in the subject area, won't cause a fire. If it progresses to a leak, then yes, it can cause a fire.

Yes, everyone should be keeping the issues separate.
