2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon — ceramic-coated car still picked up light swirls

Coating looks glossy and beads well, but I still picked up light marring over time. I think my wash/dry process is the problem. What part of the routine causes the most avoidable contact? Trying to diagnose before I book a shop.

I'd wait for the actual TSB/recall population, not the headline. On a 2023 Jeep Wrangler, I'd care more about the remedy and downtime than the press wording. That's where I'd start. Write the result down so the next test isn't a repeat of the last one. Make the next action something you can finish this week. I'm in no rush to be a hero on it.

Fair point. Counterpoint: Check whether your 2023 Jeep Wrangler VIN is actually in the affected batch before you plan a dealer day. That's where I'd start. If it doesn't change the out-the-door or the repair estimate, it's noise. This is me being the wet blanket on purpose.
