| Description of the problem | My 2016 jeep cherokee has recently presented a safety issue. Twice, in the last two days, the transmission has cut out as i made a left turn. A message appeared, "put in p to change gears." luckily, both times this happened, i was turning off the roads and into a parking lot. It scares me to drive. What could have happened if i was turning into traffic. I feel this is a dire safety issue! Both times this occurred the vehicle started back up. I was close to home so i immediately drove back home. I have an appointment with the jeep service dept. Tomorrow. Time will tell what they say. |
