- Better wiper blades.
- Take the rake out in production.

I would definitely want no carpet/bedlined from factory.

While I would never again own a wrangler without carpet (My CJ had no carpet), I do understand that many people want one that way and they should offer it.
Heck, Doesn't Chevy offer a truck with vinyl seats and rubber floor covering?
I think they should offer the Toyota 2.7L 4-cyl as a motor option. That would solve most people's gas mileage concerns. While their at it, get the 270hp 4.0L V-6 from them too! It gets 24MPG on the hwy in some models.

-Rear locker in 2wd
-Side curtain airbags mounted on sportbar and not in seats.
-$25 or so more high strength steel in the doors to bump up the safety to a point it won't be the "most dangerous small SUV on the road".
-Full skidplate option, at least on the RUBI. Front to rear, engine, pan, transmission, control arms, etc.
-Biggest one, factory option second fuel tank. Like the long ranger, but with factory gauges and support. Love to be able to make 800 miles in the JK.

Better interior lights like map lights on rearview mirror

What issue? I have never seen one do it unless it was modified. When you modify you have to do things properly or you end up with issues. This is a modification issue that happens to all vehicles that are improperly modified.
My list would be as follows:
ARB or other lockers options
Dana 60 option
Roll Cage option
Snorkel option
Abillity to delete any option that is "mandatory" with a package
Hemi option
Diesel option
Atlas transfer case option
Better transmissions both stick and auto
More gear ratio selections
