I have a 2012 with 36,000. No problems, but used a laser temp gauge on the cats and the driver side is constantly 100 to 120 degrees hotter than the passenger side.

Can someone check theirs to see if they have the same?

2011 - then it is not a pentastar, which is the subject of this thread.
My 2012 will cross the 80,000 mile mark in a few days. Over the last year it has developed an occasional momentary stutter for a fraction of a second at about 1800 rpms. It only happens a handful of times per month. I am not able to force it to happen, so won't bother to take it to the dealer unless it gets worse. Other than that and the TSB for slow slow clock, the Jeep has performed flawlessly.

2014 with 27,000 miles. Lately a coolant fluid issue that the dealer can't seem to find after being in four times. No visible leaks but stinks to high heaven and reservoir level keeps dropping. Just recently a new radiator was put in but smell is almost worse than when I dropped it off. They say give it a few days to burn off anything that may have spilled during the install. Too early to tell on level yet, it's just been a couple days.
