Hey Guys!
This is sort of a tricky thing to explain without actually "feeling" it...but has ANYONE else felt a sort of "knocking" or "creaking" sensation in the gas pedal!!?? I feel it a lot over bumps, it sort of rattles and sometimes I can feel it all the way up through the steering column. It seems to be especially bad in warm weather, and is quite annoying.

I have the same problem. The bigger problem is getting it hot enough so the problem is there when you drop it at the dealer. They will not take the time to get it hot enough to make the noise despite what you tell them. Of course, that may be because I believe my service advisor won the "I couldn't be less interested in my job award" . YMMV. The same advisor also told me that intermediate shafts "NEVER" fail on jeeps, oh and that he wouldn't be interested in reading anything from the net about the problem. Nice customer service. 5 Star my ass!
I will be going back probably on a Saturday, when I can get it good and hot and make a tech ride with me to experience it themselves.
