| Description of the problem | I have had three recalls on this model. One for a transmission recalibration, one for a shock absorber, and one for an airbag. There is one outstanding for the liftgate but the parts are not available.---i stopped at a stop sign on april 1, 2015 and turned right. The vehicle wouldn't accelerate and several icons appeared on the dash. I turned the vehicle off and on several times and shifted it in and out of gear several times. It finally went into gear and moved forward but was locked into about fourth gear. I travelled 15 miles to the nearest chysler/jeep dealership for service. The dealership recalibrated the transmission. On may 29 and may 30 the parking brake and engine icon appeared on the dash and when i shifted the vehicle into gear it would not go out of gear because the parking brake was on. I pressed and released the parking gear several times and then it would go into park and i could shut the engine off. This happened several times in my garage. I called chrysler/jeep on june 5th at about 40,000 miles and had the vehicle towed to the closest dealership (where i had taken it before). The dealership replaced the transmission module. Two different times since the module was replaced there have been icons appear on the dash. I turn the vehicle off and on and the icons eventually disappear. The transmission is slow to engage after backing up and sluggish to shift when slowing to a stop and then moving forward. |
