| Component | POWER TRAIN |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The power train bucks hard, delays forward motion from stop position, especially with a cold start, and is much worse on cold days. Had the car back to the dealer several times, called jeep, and they all tell me there is nothing they can do. I have also been told that not all of this model jeep has this problem, i am one of the lucky ones. Please help me! I am a realtor and have clients in my car that look at me like, what is wrong with your car, and why isn't jeep doing something about this? I do have several invoices from the dealer, stating my complaints, but nothing has been corrected, they have done "two updates" via their computer system, again, with no results. |
