| Description of the problem | Mid september after dropping kids off at school the jeep died twice right in a row. The jeep also started this weird hard down shifting in certain gears. A few days later the jeep died again after i got on the highway, while i was driving 70 mph. Since then the shifting is getting worse. A check engine light comes on when it dies, the codes were read by an auto parts store. There were multiple codes, electronic position sensor, intake, and manifold. I tried to file a complaint with chrysler but they will not complete it until i pay their authorized dealerships to read the codes. After resetting computer it has not come back on. The jeep still shifts erratically, and i discover that the etc warning light does not work. Why???. I don't know we have had this car for 5 years and i have never seen the light. Something is definitely wrong. Please help. Also neither my husband or myself are tall enough for our knee to even think about bumping the ignition switch. |
