| Description of the problem | My jeep cherokee 2014 has 21181 mileage and the check engine light came on . I notice that the car was shifting into gear hard and at times would not accelerate when getting on the freeway . So my husband took it to get the oil changed at the dealership where we bought the jeep and they said everything looked good. Well when my husband left all the dummy lights came on he turned right around and went back to the dealership ,the service manager came out and said the tech put the wrong oil filter on and that they would have to redo the oil change . On a month later the check engine light comes on so we call the dealership and ask if maybe them putting the wrong filter on that i would cause the check engine light to come on . The service manager said no that we would have to take it to jeep . It is still under warranty because it is under the mileage . But i looked on the complaint forum and seen many people having the same problem some having a hard time getting chrysler to help them . And almost all of them having the transmission replaced . I find that to be very disturbing considering i have only had the car for 8 months . I feel that the car should be replaced this is a dangerous situation that could cost lives . Thank you .
