I'll start with a couple of un-documented ones and ones I missed the first few times I read the manual.


• Engineering menu - Hold down both driver side temp arrow buttons (red & blue) at the same time for 5 seconds. (Caution, don't make any changes unless you know what you're doing, hit the "X" cancel button to exit.

• Dealer menu - Hold down both driver side temp arrow buttons and front Defrost button at the same time for 5 seconds. (Caution, don't make any changes unless you know what you're doing, hit the "X" cancel button to exit.

• Starting the car with a dead FOB - If you have keyless go and the batteries die on the FOB and the car won't start, push the rounded end of the FOB against the keyless go start button and it will start.

• Elevation & GPS coordinates info of your current location - In the navigation map press the current street name listed near the bottom then hit the GPS button that pops up. It will show your current elevation, coordinates, how many satellites it receiving and strength.

• Under the driver seat storage - There's a panel you can pop out under the seat revealing an empty bin big enough for about a gallon of milk. It's not convenient so its use is limited.

Cool tricks. Only "Dealer Menu" worked in my Dart though. :(

No tissue holder in my 2014 Overland

My 2014 Overland's console has no tissue holder in its lid. My Jeep does have the CD player in the console.

Well, what were the chances I would have one of those small plastic-wrapped Kleenex brand packages around....and the bigger challenge should have been finding it. But I did, and I wedged it in perfectly, and I guarantee I would have NEVER discovered that on my own. Handy and out of sight. Cool.

One might say I'm easily amused, but there is a new JG forum find every day, and I look forward to browsing around in search of all the things I can learn. Very cool indeed. Thanks, guys!

If your gas cap breaks or loses power for som reason, you can remove the bucket in the rear left and pull the loop with the yellow tab, this will open the gas cap in a power failure.
