Description of the problem | The car is showing the same symptoms described in the 2014 500l transmission recall. It will either stay in the parking gear or have significant delays in switching gears. We first saw the issue with a parked, cold car. First use in the morning. It was never moved from there other than being towed to 2 different shops. Currently the vehicle is at a shop waiting for a second estimate for repair. The first diagnostic came from a fiat dealer followed by a verbal estimate at more than $3900. See attached. This vehicle was built on jan 2015, shortly after the 2014 recalled models. The recall did not come out until 2017. Could these 2015 models have the same problems that led to the 2014 model recall? |
