| Description of the problem | I was driving home from work 9/20/2016. My service transmission light came on and i lost power in my gas pedal. Would not go. I pulled over and put it in park. Put it back in drive and it was fine for a few more miles then did it again. I drove it straight to the mechanic. The computer said it was the throttle control module. He reset it and updated it. I got it back last night. I was driving to work today nad it was fine until i got on the interstate and it did it again, light came on and my car immediately slowed down. This is not safe at all. I have read many many complaints about this issue and i believe jeep should be responsible for this. I will be trading this vehicle as soon as possible |
