| Description of the problem | 2014 jeep cherokee. Consumer writes in regards to transmission problems. *smd very shortly after the vehicle was purchased, the consumer noticed spots on the driveway, which then progressed into a horrible whining and grinding noise. The vehicle started to shift erratically and the consumer did not feel she had control of the vehicle. The consumer made an appointment with the dealer, and after having the vehicle for a day, she was informed the entire transmission needed to be replaced. The dealer explained to the consumer, that part of the transmission was porous, which explained the stains on the driveway in multiple spots. The transmission was replaced under warranty. *jb |
