Mixed Results - Works but has some bugs

I installed Pedal Commander in my 2017 Jeep Renegade DesertHawk. Installation was relatively easy, albeit a small challenge in terms of ergonomics. I didn't have installation instructions, but YouTube saved the day with some great installation videos. In terms of basic functions I'd say it works great, completely changes the throttle response/feel, there seems to be a lot more power behind the pedal. However, I can attest that this presents some interference/EMC issues as others have noted; Also in the "City" settings the computer sometimes gives other codes - mostly I see "Service 4WD, 4WD not available", which often appears when I accelerate quickly with the Pedal Commander in one of the modes. city settings. Note that this is done without engaging 4WD on dry, paved roads. I've experimented with disabling Pedal Commander and resetting it to default and I NEVER get any codes. So, does it work, yes, but caution is advised as the electronics may not work well with your vehicle.
