| Description of the problem | I have the 9 speed transmission. When the vehicle shifts from 1st to 2nd there is a definite wobble that can be felt in the vehicle. And when the vehicle downshifts from 2nd to 1st during a stop, the vehicle frequently lunges forward when the shift occurs. I have to be sure i am holding the brake very tightly to prevent the lunge. Both the wobble and the lunge feeling happen frequently, the lunge in particular is concerning to me, this is a 2015 vehicle! I have discussed this with my dealer and he indicated jeep is aware of the issue, i sure hope they plan to do something about this. |
