Had mine done this past Friday. Even my wife noticed a bit more "zip" than before. Definitely runs better IMO.

Plus, they left a full can of Mopar silicone spray lube in the backseat. Wonder what went on back there?

Had mine done a week ago and also didn't see any change good or bad. Sure wish I would've seen
a little more difference on the power side.

Definitely moved shift points up, holds a gear a little longer than it used to, much smoother/even acceleration.

Didn't change mileage, I've always been happy with my 3.8l in that department

Has anyone had this work done yet? Any issues or noticeable side effects after the PCM update?
I had the work done and my MPG decreased. Also seem to shift into Overdrive sooner then before.

The majority of the time I do...that was taken today, flat grade, headed E...calm winds from W-SW. I've thought it weird too...I expected it to go down, but approaching 10K miles, IDK if it'll change at all. Doing a straight calculation after every empty tank brings me down to ~20.9. But still, I'm happy. The wife's CRV only does 5-6mpg better

Just got the recall notice in the mail, sure hope it stops the pinging! but if they fixed all the issues then it wouldn't be a JK.
