They hadn't disposed of them yet. So I called them Tuesday night and asked if they still had them laying around, they said yes. Jackpot! lol They put the old ones back on, and refunded me the cost of the new ones. I love my Jeep again!
I have a wonderful update! The shop reinstalled my 'old' original mopar struts. I am now waiting on the Jeep dealer to get in two shocks which they will swap to replace the leaky ones, while keeping everything else OEM.
What an adventure! haha :LOL:
I have the opportunity to switch to either Monroe Quick-Strut or Gabriel Ultra ReadyMount. Which do you recommend?

In July 2020, I replaced the OEM rotors (and pads) on my Grand Cherokee. I had heard great things from the BITOG community about both the Raybestos and Powerstop coated rotors. So I decided to try them both! Raybestos Element 3 RPT Grey Fusion rotors in the front, and Powertop Geomet...
Stumbled upon this thread today, then googled the issue and it scared the crap out of me. Went out and checked my Jeep...yup, leaking
I have no idea how long it's been like this. I bought the vehicle new in Jan 2015, put on 80,000 KM (~50K miles) since.
Finally getting around to doing the brakes (rotors and pads) on my 2014 Grand Cherokee. I thought I had nailed down the rotors (Raybestos Element3 fully coated), but came across a deal on Wagner Premium E-coated rotors and now I'm debating which to go for.
Raybestos Element3 fully coated...
