| Description of the problem | My 2014 jeep cherokees engine will completely turn off when trying to shift from first to second gear. This is alarming because i'm almost always driving with a one year old in the backseat and when at a stop light or stop sign the car will just not accelerate when the gas is pressed and then unexpectedly just stay idle. Because i am already at a stopped position i have no traction to move the car to the side of the road and the car is left stranded where i stopped. I have also experienced a noticeable jerking motion when traveling at high speeds and its shifting at higher gears. |
