 Description of the problemWhen we bought the 2014 jeep cherokee it was new. There was no issue with the transmission until we had owned it for about a month. Then it started having a rough shimmy as it searched for the correct gear going from 0 to 10 mph and then 10 to 20 mph. Once it reaches about 25 miles per hour there is no issue with the shifting. We have had it back to the dealership 3 times. Each time they said it was fixed, but upon leaving the lot, it did the same thing i had taken it in for to begin with. With jeep's update, we now have a long pause going up hill before it gives a rough shift at about 5 mph and then continues to shimmy at 10 to 20 mph. I was told on the third visit they would submit a report to the manufacturer to see what the next step should be to fix the jeep since the updates did not work. However, they tried the same thing again and said they thought it was fixed, but it wasn't. Upon completion of the second visit i was told it needed to get use to my driving pattern? What exactly does that mean? What if more than one of us drive the vehicle? I am getting the run-around from jeep on a product they shouldn't have sold me in the first place. Everything i read prior to the purchase raved about the 9 speed transmission. Unfortunately, that was incorrect since the transmissions in the 2014 jeep cherokees all have the same issue and jeep doesn't really know how to fix them. I believe i need a new transmission; but will have to force jeep to do it and hope it works. My time is work something - just fix it. It's a lemon in my opinion.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
