BS for sure, this is a unique situation and now that we've seen it mentioned here twice I'm wondering if it a material issue with those jets or a design issue but it better not be because the spa sat without water, if the spa sitting empty was really the problem then they'd have an even bigger issue on their hands.

   Pretty sure it's not a major problem with the jet as we haven't replaced any, not sure whats going on with hers, whatever it was it was not her fault!!

Yes, mine was delivered not working correct.
I can get them to spin by pushing them with my finger, they go for a minute or do then stop again. My thought was tightened to tight binding it up, but I have no idea how they are put together if that's even possible. Other idea was bits of "stuff" clogged up in the mechanism, but again I don't know if that would be possible.

Out of the six jets 1 will work almost all the time. 2 others about 50% of the time, 1 about 25%,  and the other 2 never. Water and air come out free and equal but they just don't spin.

Jacuzzi_Kirra:
Back on my statement, the dealer had warned me about not leaving the spa sit empty without water in it due to the dangerously levels of heat that builds up during the springs/summer months.  That being said, it sat empty for about 3 to 4 weeks before it was hooked up.  Immediately upon start up, two of the lounge jets floated up.

Not sure why, don't really care since they fixed them without any issues, minus having to reorder them from Jacuzzi a few differernt times since they received the 2011 version vs 2012 version jets or something like that.

They've been working great every sense. 

The J-480 is an amazing machine.
