| Description of the problem | I had parked my jeep on a hill i got out and walked about 20 feet in back of the jeep and all of a sudden i hear a sound of movement and i saw the jeep moving down the hill i was able to run fast enough to get into the jeep and pull the parking brake which stopped it. I forgot about the recall that was on it with the final drive controller module i had called the jeep dealer to tell them that were i live they don't have the proper software to complete the repair in any shop. I live on the island of kodiak ak. They said they were working on getting this software to a repair shop here however, after i didn't hear from them for six months i called back and they told me that they couldn't help me and i had to take my jeep to them on the mainland. I can't afford to ferry my jeep to the mainland and then stay over there until they can repair it then ferry it back. So now i have experienced this situation which could have ended differently then it did i am thankful no one was hurt. *js |
