I've searched every term I can regarding this issue with 2014 Cherokee KLs on the interwebs, and this seems to be the ONLY issue ever reported about this. Come clean. Water was deeper and you went faster, right?

Not sure how that would help it cross a creek, that would just make a sticky mess. Then there would be ant in my pants.

Or why hasn't this been reported in the link above in Post 20?

Seems like you're trying to get this message to the wrong folks.

I'm gonna start carrying tape measures with me when I do water crossings now.
