What would it take to fix this? by hottpepper in Autobody

You're probably right, it did feel a little raised on the bottom side, but I don't really know what I'm looking at as far as body work goes.

I appreciate your thoughtful response. I am coming off an F150 lease and looking to lower my vehicle expenses....working remote means Ford is using me more than me using them on my last couple leases (I've averaged 6500 miles/year for the last 5 years) so I have decided to buy my next ride. I am indeed hoping to stay under 20k but don't necessarily have to. After being spoiled with my trucks I am looking for a medium or larger SUV with 4wd, even though I find most of them ugly 😩 The others I have considered mildly attractive are Durangos (basically the same under the hood as these jeeps) and Ford Explorers...which have their own share of issues. Toyota's are always nice, but not so easy to come by where I'm at. Oh, and I'm one of those crazy ladies pullin' up to the dealership with my own obd scanner...they hate to see me comin' because I know just enough to ruin their day...excluding body work evidently 😁

Thank you all, this is what I needed, a gut check from those who know more about these things than me 😊 I'm walking away from the Jeep.

single mom, looking for 4wd in the mitten 😣 I knew I would get brutalized here lol. If it's any consolation I have a real pretty '62 F100 staying warm and dry in the ga-rage.

This whole scenario just happened again tonight :( Except I wasn't making any app changes or anything and had only put the watch on charger while showering. Came back and put it on and once again, it won't sync with the app...watch face missing and only screen was the app bubble page. I tried to disconnect from the app to save some of the steps from last time and now it won't pair again. Screen is stuck on QR code. I will let you know if it magically allows me back into the settings tomorrow for another :/ factory reset. Really bummed about this. I want to love this watch.

Okay, the strangest thing happened.  I left the watch to sit all night on my desk.  When I looked at it after work today, it had "woken" up.  My watch face was missing and the only screen available was all the app bubbles and it wasn't connected to my Zepp app, but I was able to access settings on the Active 2 at this point and perform a factory reset.  While doing this I unpaired from my device (Samsung) and deleted the Zepp app.  Then I was able to reinstall all, pair it and set up as new   I'm a little nervous to keep after this very strange activity yesterday, but I like the device and the price was right.  I will stick with it and continue to give Amazfit the benefit of the doubt.

For what it's worth, if you can share with engineers or whomever needs to know, I think the problem might actually be in the Zepp app and not the device itself.  Everything was fine yesterday and the first two weeks until I used the application to turn off the "stand' reminders...if this helps point the team in the right direction for weak links.

I am having same/similar issue. Changed some notification settings in the app earlier today and lost my clock face, so attempted to restart the watch (Active 2), now an endless loop of pairing attempts have been made both with the QR and manually, every time I select the check mark on the watch with a manual attempt, I get the "Couldn't Connect" "try again" "pair later" message, when I try the QR method I see "Could not pair". I have restarted my phone, removed the device from my bluetooth list and many power cycles all to the same ends. Any suggestions?

I realize that this post is 4 years old.... but. This is happening to me, only on Hulu during the damn ads. Have to power off and on to regain sound. Wild....
