| My 2012 jeep wrangler sahara 2-door with automatic transmission exibits the following issues: 1) valve train ticking noise. this developed after a few months of ownership (bought november 2011) 2) sluggish exceleration and automatic transmission shifting when vehicle is cold. it does improve as vehicle is warmed up after driving it for 5-10 minutes, and by then the vehicle seems to operate normal. 3) i sometimes feel a thud or vibration coming up from the steering wheel. it almost feels as something is loose in the front-end. this happenes sporadically. this started happening just recently. i am going to discuss these issues with the chrysler dealership when i take it for the first oil change. | |||
