What’s up again everyone? Y’all are probably out driving the Jeep’s since it’s a weekend and all but I’ll go ahead and ask, with pics of course! I crawled under my Jeep to look around and saw these tiny drops of what looks like oil. Any concern?

I see you have the 3.8 engine so it's the common rear main seal leak, you could try putting the next heavier weight oil in next oil change. Just keep track of how much it leaks and your oil level.

Yea, it's the 3.8. It was within my budget so I purchased the Jeep. I love it but you know how it is, buy something used and I have to find every little thing that could be an issue. I'll do what you suggest and keep an eye on my fluid levels. I had a 2014 JKU and it had the same exact sort of leak but never had any issues. Now I keep getting a P0572 code, something about a brake circuit A. I'll diagnose it tomorrow.
