Hi guys i have a late 2011 jeep jk wrangler, driving home today and engine light came on, i did the work the code out and it says i have a P0306 which is a cylinder 6 misfire. Taking to dealer tomorrow morning. Its out of warranty and its only got 39000kms on it. Do they cover the cost??
If its out of warranty it'll be a full retail job unless by some luck/good grace they may replace the part under warranty if its just out by a few weeks.. but then again it is FCA Good luck mate
I hope they cover it, reading articles online and apparently its a common problem on the 2011, 2012, 2013 models. It does go on the say Chrysler covers it but that was in America.

It's a known manufacturing defect, as a result the warranty period for a these engines has been extended to ten years. Push hard some dealers will try to get out of it but others have been successful

I've had the same fault happen on my late 2011 (3.8L). I was in a NP about 100kms from home. The car hadn't missed a beat all day so I drove home with it, cleared the fault light and never had a problem since.
