| Description of the problem | Back in june/july 2018 my vehicle would keep bucking while driving and the throttle light and check engine light would come on. I called dealership and they told me not to drive it until it was serviced. The vehicle only had 53,000 miles but was over the warranty and was not covered under the powertrain warranty. I feel this should have been covered. I see a lot of other people are complaining about this. Will this be recalled. It cost me over $500. 00 to fix this. Let alone the dangerous driving situation with it losing power while driving on a major route with alot of traffic. I also had to have my power window unit replaced. It got stuck while down. I took it to dealership while under warranty they fixed it. But it happened again after warranty was over and i was charged to replace motor. Is this why jeep only gives 3 year warranties because their parts aren't designed to last much after that. |
