It’s not good that the gearbox bearings need replacing on such a new car, but Jeep appears to be handling it in a positive and helpful way. Despite your misgivings, I would recommend you go through with the exercise, and hopefully they will come good with their offer of a goodwill gesture.
You can have your car serviced by the companies you are considering without affecting your warranty, so that's an issue. It comes down to the level of confidence you have in those independent service people to do a good job. I would suggest you use the dealer for the servicing until the warranty expires and then look for another mechanic after that. Using the dealer can make it easier if you have a problem with your car late on and want to make a warranty claim.
