 Description of the problemOn 01/16/2021 i was driving the jeep at highway speeds when suddenly the transmission would not shift from 4th to 5th and my accelerator peddle was unresponsive. Upon getting home i pulled the obd and received code p0887 which was associated with a recall for this vehicle and the recall outlined the symptoms i was having to a t. Upon calling jeep after reading the recall i learned this vin was not recalled even though the symptoms for the recall were the same we were experiencing. After reading about this online i think this is a wider recall that needs to happen because since the recall and service bulletin release date in june 2018 there has been multiple reports of this exact same problem. I have attached my diagnostic scan so you can see the freeze frame and code being thrown on the vehicle. That being said this car is undriveable right now through no fault of our own as all maintenance is up to date. Jeep wants to charge us $75 for the re-flash procedure and i realize i may not get out of paying that but i wanted to be sure you guys knew that the recall that was supposed to cover these years of jeeps failed to do so fully and should be reexamined. Thanks
