My front suspension keeps bottoming out while driving down the road. If I catch a pothole or dip in the road I will bottom out. Today I was in a parking lot and it bottomed out going over a speed bump. I know there is a TSB for the eco diesel Rubicons but for no other sub-models.

Leakage of oil from rear passenger side axle seal. Vehicle was purchased new in March 2021 and leak discovered in September 2021.
Purchased vehicle 8/20/21. Car was brought into dealership for repairs to the rear axel leaking. This seems to be a huge problem with gladiator trucks and feel this should be considered a recall. The part needed to fix is on back order with no eta date which is even more concerning. I have a brand n...

Gas "burps" back out when filling up. When filling up, after the gas nozzle shuts off with the first click, the Jeep instantly "burps" gasoline back out. I've performed 3 fill ups at different pumps, and this has occured in 2 out of those 3 fill ups.

I can't go over 40 mph because it starts to wander and correcting its course causes it to wobble. When I come to a stop it pulls to one side and I have almost had a couple of accident...
