Well, I got an answer, sort of...

The dealer apparently ordered the parts for the 3 recalls when I booked it in on the 7th of March. But they still don't have an estimated delivery date from the warehouse, (FCA?), for when they will get them yet...

Mine was easy. Took 2 weeks waiting for parts though.

I made the phone call to ask if there's any recalls on my car because I had not been registered as the new owner. Yep 3 recalls:
- Clock Spring
- Electric side mirrors need wiring lume replaced
- Soft top issue (I have no soft top)

Made a booking, arrive there on Wednesday morn, the 2 recalls were done. That was it easy.
The Dealer I went to was Brisbane City Automotive, they are a new dealership and it was one of the easiest and most trouble free car services I've had for years. I never heard of them before maybe they have taken over from Leo (Wankers) Mullers Group.

I hope you had a CO2 extinguisher handy when dealing with them!

I've just had my clockspring replaced and it makes this noise that it never used to from neutral steer. Early turning in either direction and gives this little tick like a weight shifting from side to side. If I had to describe something similar it would be like the sound of a small metronome moving side to side. The stereo, AC or open window cancels the noise out but there's still a small tick feeling on turning under the hand. Anyone else felt this?

Same here, if it's working I don't want a jeep dealer to touch my car
