Lots of thread on this already. Anything between 190-235F is normal. These motors, like most newer automobiles, run warmer than those of the past. Keep your radiator unobstructed and make sure your fan is working.

I went up to the mountains this weekend and was worried I was going to overheat. It was 110° outside and going up some of the long grades, I hit 242°. I'm going to take it in to Jeep to have them check in out just in case, but that is getting too hot for my comfort.

Be interesting to see what they have to say. I just got mine back after being in the shop for 3 weeks. 14K miles on my JK, and just got a top engine rebuild done due to some over heating...

Got my Rubi back from the dealer yesterday. They pressure tested the coolant system and found no issues. They said that is warm, but not overheating (since no warning lights came on). They replaced the T-stat under warranty just in case that might be going bad and to see if that will help.
