Nothing at all. It's got 245,000 miles or so at this point. It acts like what used to be a neutral safety switch, although I suspect the modern version of that device lurks in the software someplace.

My '08 libby won't crank at all. The problem started as intermittent but has become permanent. It appears the transmission neutral/park switch will not tell the ignition that the vehicle is not in gear. Initially when it happened a couple times wiggling the shift lever fixed it. Now nothing...

This has been getting progressively worse over the last few years. Every time it rains my front carpeting is soaked. I have a lot of rust around the area where the black strips the roof rails are attached to and the top of the windshield meet. Believing it might be getting in there I used 2 cans...

My 08 has done this occasionally as long as I've had it. I now have 213K. It appears to start running on 3 or 4 cylinders and shakes like hell. It is NOT still cranking when it does this. I also get no CEL. I have never let it go until it stops since it scares the crap out of me. When it does it...

Wow, I could have written that post myself. I just passed 203k on my 08. Only problems (other than tires, brakes, etc) have been a couple busted power steering lines. Might use a half quart of oil between changes. Shocks and struts need done, though. Damn thing rides like a Jeep.

Sorry to hear of your misfortune. My 08 has 144000 on it and the only things that have broken so far have been the 2 transfer lines on the power steering gear. I had to buy an entire steering gear (salvage) to harvest those lines so I was a tad unhappy but other than that the thing has been...

Yes to the idea that full time is an additional differential type coupling between the front and rear drive shafts. No to the not binding in a straight line, however. The reason is that there are small differences that become cumulative. Like a pound or 2 difference in pressure between tires. I...

Just in case anyone cares... I am kind of amazed at this but the other PS transfer line on my Jeep blew out Wednesday. I assumed that when I lost all the fluid again that my previous repair had failed somehow. Nope. The other line burst. I didn't bother doing both of them the first time...

Since the part is not sold separately from the rack gear I am not sure where one would acquire the "correct" new O-rings. The ones on the take off part looked fine and don't leak so I suppose it's the best I'm going to get.

Thanks Hectikart, I may now explore your idea of welding or brazing the line now that I have it out to put back on the salvage rack to make it a complete unit.

For anyone who is interested in the final outcome of my dilemma. I found a steering rack on ebay from a junk yard. Pam's auto in MN. I got good customer service when I asked some questions about the lines. Not a plug for them, just an observation. Anyway, I took the line off the salvage unit...

tjkj, I agree that the price to r&r the entire rack is not unreasonable. What is unreasonable to me is having to do it at all for a simple steel line. Since I suppose I will end up taking ther rack out regardless I will be able to look at alternatives such as repairing the line ala hecticarts...

Uh oh. 49 views and no replies. I hope I haven't stumped the collective.

Hi all, I have a giant dilemma on my 08kk. One of the small steel lines that runs from one point on the steering rack to another point on the rack has busted. It has a pinhole in it which leaks quite quickly under pressure. When it broke my PS was gone within 2 miles. Right now there is a...

My 2008 does that badly. Dealer told me there are no tsbs that offer warranty extension (free fix) on the 2008 at all for any problems.

Just passed 100k on my '08. 5w-20 the whole way, no problems.

bra I have one on my KK. I got it because I commute 100+ miles a day and already have some huge chips in the paint on the front end from flying rocks. I don't particularly like the looks of the bra--it's a bit too 80's for me but I like chips down to the bare metal even less. It is a lebra...

First post from a noob... I get a consistent 21.5-22.5 overall in the summer and 20ish in the winter (Cleveland, OH winter, that is). My commute is 60 miles each way, about 80 percent highway. This makes up the bulk of the 60k miles on my '08 sport 4WD, auto trans. The rest is usually city...
