I'm waiting for a Jeep to catch fire at a gas pump when one of them overflows... again. That lawsuit is going to be expensive.

My guess is:

If there is no warning when it overheats, then it will overheat and you won't know it until it is too late. Then, when you take to Dealership, they will say:

"Chrysler sent you a Recall Notice, so pay for your own replacement".

This may piss u off, it would me...

All they do is reprogram the jeep to warn you that the "oil is hot". I have an appointment with the dealer today to get this fixed but I was woondering if I should re-program the computer back to stock with Procal? .........is that a big deal?

I know superchips wants you to go back to stock, before going in. They might lock you out of the programmer by overwriting the code.
