| Description of the problem | 2/12/18 ,2016 jeep cherokee, 26,300 miles. Driving on i-5 in washington to seattle tp pick up my pregnant wife from the airport about 45 miles from home speed was 72 mph. Service transmission displayed on dash with the check engine light. The vehicle would rev but slowly accelerate. I was able to get off the highway. Once stopped the car would rev but barley move forward. Pulled into a shopping center, i turned the car off and inspected the engine and underneath the vehicle for any fluids. Once i started the car it would creep forward slowly until it reached 45mph. The service transmission cleared from the display but the check engine light stayed on. The car operated normally but shifted rough. Turned around to head home the service transmission displayed again and the car would not accelerate. Pulled over again turned the car on and off and resumed normal driving. The check engine light is still on but limped 45 miles home. I will be taking the car to the dealership in the morning. Multiple complaints about this issue for the vehicle. |
