It has been a couple of months, is the ticking problem gone still? Is the power what it should be (still)? Just looking for an update, you've been great for keeping "us" up to date. Hope it's all fixed.

Not sure about that so far they have been good to me they have given a loaner each time i had to put my jeep in the shop, I did have to take it up there 3 times to get a new head ordered which is frustrating but looks like other people are having to do the same thing or take to multiple dealers

dreaded ticking noise
My husband and I bought my dream car, A 2012 Jeep wrangler sport march 26 2012 started the ticking noise about 800 mile marker, took her in and was told that is normal they all sound like that if your check engine light comes on please give us a call. now around the 1000 mark check engine light came on, brought her in and it stored a code that said number 6 cylinder miss fired. Their fix was "it just needed a soft wear update". less than 24 hours later light is on again. Next Tues. she goes in again to be looked at. :/ I politely asked for a Leak down test at the first check engine light and the gentlemen laughed and said "google mechanic.. If it needs it our tech will do it."
Build Date is 9/11 :/
I have read a lot of you guys are having the same issue just wondering how many of us are having it happen? Also, about how long it took for it to be really fixed?
~Thanks

So what prompted you to take it in to get it repaired? What symptoms did you have?
