My CRD is listed on the website, but I have not received my notice in the mail yet.
My fathers gasser is listed on the site also.

I scheduled my CRD for service tomorrow.

Just on a whim I checked the website and that is how I found that one.

Careful - they may violate your CRD in your power reduction port, aka obd. Be sure your OBD chasity belt is securely fastened if your CRD has not yet been castrated( 05 models only, 06's come neutered). These Jeep dealers be crafty people, they will cut your torque off before you can turn your head and cough.

Yeah, that happened to me and they called it the F31 service that was just suppose to let scanners read the OBDII codes. Those sensored word, they killed my torque!

My blower motor fan exploded - busting a hole in the air box, this was 2 summers ago. I should be ok.

Also, is there a way to cover the ODB port with a padlock type of entity?

My VIN is is showing a blower motor recall. I have a Provent and an '02 airbox. Do I have to remove those before I take it in?

I have a ProVent, and Edge chip and a Amsoil air filter. I think this time, I'm taking it is with EVERYTHING on it just to see what they say! :-)

I took my '06 in Thursday to have the fuel filter head assembly changed out and they already ordered the new blower motor. Sometimes I wonder if it would be worth more as charcoal?
