Went this weekend to rausch for the first time to attend topless for tatas and it was a blast!!! I'm planning to go back the 25th and 26th if anyone is interested in joining. I'm going with my dad so since it will only be our second time there we would like to have a trail guide

How many miles did you have on it? My 2012 is up to 7000. I'm sure there's no set number but just wondering? Any warning signs or just the light coming on?

I'm at 13,900 roughly. From what I've read it happens between 10k-15k miles but it's only for 2012s made before November 2011.No big warnings. Just the light came on but just an FYI I listen to my music loud and am also hearing impaired so if there was a "tick" which alot of people said they hear I wouldn't have caught it and when I think back I do remember my jeeps motor feeling a little rough a few days before it came on. Kinda one of those something's not right but I can't put my finger on it of you know what I mean

Hope it becomes a painless repair.
Thanks. I'm hoping it will be painless too. I'm usually the same way with new models but Of course the one time I'm not lol. I'm just hoping the rest of the engine wasn't damaged from the problem

Thing is, it's not really a new model. Should not have happened. This motor has been in other vehicles. It sucks this is happening, with the heads.

I hope not. Good luck. From what I understand it's not every jeep so I hope it doesn't affect you
