the 08 is back up and running - everything is great... but the starter...
it is dragging like hell now, this is probably the result of me trying to start the jeep back a few times after it shut down on me. service manager says that "since it is starting, all we can do now is keep an eye on it to see if it acts up." BULLSH!T
guess i will just drive my new JK locally until the starter burns up, then have it towed to the dealer for repair again...
gonna drive it over the weekend, i may be taking it back in monday morning.

troy-boy i would be watching for an alternator failure... is yours an 08? maybe take it to advance or somthin and have them test to see what the alternator is doing... the service manager said that mine started overcharging, then melted down.
the 08 JK is going back to the dealer this afternoon. i am still getting the "melted plastic" smell of HOT wiring when i start it, which is more than likely the starter going south in a hurry beacuse it is still dragging like hell every time i start it....BS BS BS
and the F'IN saga continues....
