 Description of the problemOn my way to work on march 16th when my service park brake message came across my screen along with my check engine light and park brake light. About 10 seconds later the service transmission message was displayed. I had no power when i pressed on the gas. I was lucky enough to be in a residential area still and coasted into someone's driveway. I put it in park. When i put it in reverse it shifted hard with a loud thud. It literally sounded like the engine dropped out of the jeep. I still didn't have any gas power so i put it back into park with another hard shift and loud thud. I turned the jeep off and back on. I had gas power and it no longer shifted hard but my engine light was still on. Took it in for service the next day. Of course they couldn't duplicate the condition with several test drives so they chalked it up to a software update recall "occupant restraint control module". Fast forward 11 days later, the exact same thing happens. Lost power in gas pedal, service park brake message across screen, changes to service transmission, the engine light, parking brake light and now the traction light all on. When i put it in park then reverse extremely loud and hard thud. Then another message came across the screen, shift to p then desired gear. Put it back into park with a loud, hard thud. Turned off jeep then back on. Got power back in gas pedal and was able to get it home. Taking it in first thing monday morning (3/30) for the exact same issue as almost 2 weeks ago. After reading all the complaints on this site and others, it doesn't sound too promising. I bought this jeep brand new in nov 2013. And this will be the 4th time its been in for service. The previous two were for a crack in the transmission case causing it to leak transmission fluid (3/3/14) and for a faulty internal controller in my shifter (5/16/14).
