| Description of the problem | As i press on the gas to accelerate to pass or go through an intersection the car does not respond for a very delayed period of time, when it does respond it is when you have mad the decision it is too late to execute the pass or cross the intersection but then the car will respond and i have to hit the breaks. I have been told the delay is normal, or they have reprogrammed my transmission stating that may "fix" the problem. It does not, it just makes the shifting jerky and the delay stays the same. This is dangerous and jeep/ chrysler will not acknowledge there is a problem either in their transmission or in the programming, but it is going to cause an accident or multiple accident as it is not isolated to one vehicle. *js |
