  1. You are not calling displayGarage after adding a new car.
  2. Simply calling it is not enough, you need to pass a new car to it

$(document).ready(readyNow);

let garage = [];

function readyNow() {
  console.log('JQ');
  $('#addCarButton').on('click', addCar)
} //end readyNow

function addCar() {
  console.log('in addCar');
  //get unser inputs
  //create new object
  let newCar = {
    year: $('#yearInput').val(),
    make: $('#makeInput').val(),
    model: $('#modelInput').val()
  }
  //push the new car into the array
  garage.push(newCar);
  //empty inputs
  $('#yearInput').val('');
  $('#makeInput').val('');
  $('#modelInput').val('');

  displayGarage(newCar); // NEW
}
console.log(garage);



function displayGarage(newCar) { // NEW
  console.log('in displayGarage');

  $('#garageOut ').append('<li> Year: ' + newCar.year +
    'Make: ' + newCar.make +
    'Model: ' + newCar.model + '</li>');
}
