found 2 little puddles of pink liquid on my garage floor this morning.
4700 miles and I am assuming it is a transmission leak. :(
Anyone else had a leak yet?

I just noticed a leak yesterday. The leak i have is right at the orange seal of the front transfer case.

No leaks, What color is the coolant? Isn't some of the new coolant pink or red? Definately get it serviced.

Good luck

I am picking it up in an hour.
It was a Trans leak.
More info to come.

they replaced the O Rings on the transmission electrical connector?
Said it was a TSB on the 05 Cherokees??
Anyway, it's fixed.
Had them do the Windshield whine fix as well and tested it up to 120 coming home, all is well.

Had my 2 o-rings done 2 weeks ago due to a small leak, I lost about 1/2 quart of tranmission fluid, dealer topped off all ok so far.

The only transmission leaks I have seen to date have also been from the tranmission electrical connector. The connector is located on the passenger side front of the transmission just above the transmission pan, covered by a heat shield.
The engine coolant also has a red-orange color to it.

I found some clear water like plazma on the ground this morning. After I looked around, I realized my headlight fluid resevoirs were depleted and my headlights were empty.
I called the dealer up and he told me to check the rear resevoirs as they are larger and are supposed to suppliment the front ones, but I couldn't find them. :confused:

It was the o-rings. Replaced and good to go.

So, my leak re-occured this morning.
Took it straight back in and they replaced the connector and the guide pin bushing O rings.
They also added dye to track the leak if it occurs again.

Stay tuned.....

Trans started leaking today. Not sure from where. Leak is hitting the exhaust a bit so minor smoking if you look close. Taking to the dealer tomorrow. Will keep you posted. Do you guys know if our warranty covers loaner cars if it's in the shop for a certain period due to warranty issue? Having trouble finding documentation on this.

Picked the rig up. They replaced 2 O-ring seals on the trans valve body.

The warranty does not cover loaner cars. I had the car serviced, they had it for two days and whne I asked for a loaner they said no can do.

I have the same leak on my GC this morning. So has anyone figured out if it is the transmission or the coolant? Anyway, I replaced the intake with a Dub Air intake, is this going to void the warranty. I really don't know how warranties work being that this is my first new car. The intake has nothing to do with the transmission does it? I still have the stock intake, should I put it back on then take it to the dealership? I was supposed to go to the race track tonight also, damn! Please help.
