A dealer may be able to apply a software update but unlikely.

One of the Jeep rental companies in the US found the the 2010 or 2011 model year brought about a bit of improvement in the traction control system. There was a video on youtube but I can't find it anymore.

This response says to me one of a couple of things *as that little word under your forum name NEWBIE or more money than brains, but we've all got to learn the hard way sooner or later.

just a thought and it requires some fiddling around but can you swap tyres with a friend and return to the rock? i honestly think this BLD talk is over thinking it, If you ask me its because the coopers are probably shocking. unless your under warranty avoid a dealer at all cost their mechanics are rarely over 25 and charge absolute top dollar its crazy!

Yeah aggreed
Box and ect helps but it was slippery, and your tyres were sandy as well mate.
That's probably all it was.

IMO you still outdid those patrols

I dont think there is anything wrong with ur truck at all probably some crap on the tyres and rocks...

Even lower pressures can help as the coopers are pretty rigid stuff and a shortwheel is pretty light which means they don't belly mch.....
