| Description of the problem | While traveling in "drive" the vehicle would not accelerate or decelerate. On the dash board all the gear 123d had lit up squares around them. When i pressed the accelerator to the floor nothing happened. This can cause a crash and possibly kill somebody including my family. I ended up having to pull to the shoulder of the road. Turn the vehicle off and restart it. When i did this everything worked normally. I have heard of problems like this before. I bought this vehicle used from a volkswagen dealer who told me the powertrain warranty was transferable. It is not. The vehicle only has 44000 miles on it and i don't understand why it is so unsafe. Please help.. No work has been done on this vehicle due to lack of funds, a warranty and every time i call a jeep dealer and ask them what it is i get a different answer and i don't believe that they know what they are doing. |
