Description of the problem	Bought jeep had it for approx. 7 months (october 2019) and it would shift really hard, then one day driving from home to store, the jeep just stalled on street, turned off engine, restarted and drove to destination. I brought my jeep in 4x before they had replaced a whole new engine due to it burning oil. Roughly 3 months later (january), jeep was in driveway, drove to work and twice the same day slammed into gears, took it back to jeep, they said gears needed to be reset. It seems when i use 4x4 to snow, its fine, when i turn it off a couple days later it slams into gears. Yesterday (march 2020) vehicle was parked in driveway, reversed to leave and lights came on dash for shifter needs repair, turned off engine, restarted, resumed driving and lights were off.
