Jeep 2013 3.6 issues. Bulletin #s by chance?

Post by cv67 »

Friend of mine, was told he had a possible rod knock, Im guessing hes hearing the DS head which I guess has issues.

Should be under warranty but this guy is young and was hoping someone here would have the bulletin/repair # type stuff so hes armed with some better info when he speaks to the service advisor

He purchased it used from the dealer but concerned they will give him the run around. He depends on it for getting to work-


Appreciate any info.

These have a very common issue with rocker arms failing, sometimes they’ll have an accompanying misfire but not always. I’ve seen it at high and low miles on the jeeps and minivans alike.

I've seen quite a few failures of valve guides, only on the #2 cylinder. I can't explain why, just my first hand experience.
