After one week of ownership, I noticed that my Jeep started making noises when the gas engine was running. It was still whisper quiet with the electric motors. I made an appointment to bring it in for the following Monday. The Jeep dealership's appointment scheduler was screwed up and they actually didn't have any appointments. There were running 3 weeks out to get appointments. I left it, because I really couldn't dare drive it due to the loud noises it made.
They called 3 days later, telling me it needed a new flywheel and that when they removed the access panel for the transmission, it poured transmission fluid with metal flakes in it. It's been over two weeks. They are waiting for the new transmission and flywheel to arrive so they can replace them. It looks like I'll probably make the first car payment without ever driving my car for more than one week.
