| Description of the problem | Three different types of shifter-transmission issues in approximately 6 months of normal in-town and freeway driving. 1. Service shifter warning came on suddenly on a level, dry pavement on cruise control at 70mph on the freeway (17k miles on vehicle) one month, after it happened at 15mph on dry, straight, level pavement in the city and was taken to the dealership and told nothing, was wrong. Turning the vehicle off and on again eliminates notification. The service department at jeep dealership notified of the 2nd incident which happened today, and i have an appointment next week to have it checked. 2. Shifter popped out of drive suddenly while driving on dry, flat, straight at 35 mph city street (15k on vehicle) into neutral. Had my hands on the wheel and did not bump it. Would not go easily back to park or drive. This happened approximately one month before service shifter incidents. 3. Going through a car wash in neutral at the end when the vehicle had rolled off the conveyor and was stopped i attempted to put it into drive and vehicle revved to a high rpm but did not engage into drive. I had to put into park, shut it off and then turn it back on again to get the vehicle to go into drive. This happened at approximately 5k-10k miles on two separate occasions. |
