Description of the problem	In november 2016 i was driving in a 35mph zone. The car began to skip and jump forward. Without warning the service shifter light came on and all my lights for the shifter came on (p,r,n,d). The car which was in drive immediately shifted into park and i lost all control. Thankfully i was able to come to a stop and call for a tow truck. The issue was fixed under warranty and they said it's a defect in the shifter. The service department was very vague when explaining this to me. Two weeks later i i was told i could pick up my car. Fast forward to today 10/04/2017, my car did the same thing. I was traveling at 55 mph this time and lost all control. I had to jump a curb and drive across the lawn and into the parking lot. I have read many issues about this problem from other jeep owners. Why hasn't a recall been issued? Especially if this is a known issue. I could have caused a large accident especially since it was during rush hour. Safety of consumer and others on road need to be taken into account.
