Description of the problem	Safety recall 2005 jeep grand cherokee/transmission fluid leak. Vehicle shakes violently/shudders on highway &when speeding up/ slowing down. Jeep serviced on 5 separate occasions for recall over 36 months. Repaired incorrectly on 1st visit to dealer service. Brought in 4 subsequent times/approx. Every 10,000 mi- to fix same issue transmission/ failed torque converter/shudder. Dealer argued no recall of this item, despite having nhtsa recall info/my vin was noted on recall. Dealer refused to waive $100 powertrain warranty fee each time jeep brought back. Dealer insisted mopar parts have 9,000 mi warranty/ i would pay for repair b/c i drove 10,000 mi since previous repair. Dealer refused to provide rental car despite 5-7 day s to repair. Recall states a loaner vehicle to be provided if scheduled repair would take >1+days. A local 5 star jeep/chrysler dealership refused to service jeep after their initial recall repair failed at 10,000 miles. I was told to take jeep back to dealership i leased it from. Dealership manager told me it was not his problem to fix & 5 star jeep name did not mean anything to him. Said he was not concerned about recall. I brought jeep to the leasing dealership- they refuted claims of a recall & told me to pay for all repairs & loaner car. It wasn't until 4th&5th time jeep was in for service that a loaner car was provided because i told dealer i was pursuing ohio lemon law. The last time i brought jeep in for service of this recall item, i was told to go on a drive with serviceman to verify problem. He told me it was torque converter & not to fix it b/c he didn't think there would be a fires from leak. I showed him nhtsa recall. He said i would pay for mopar parts b/c they were out of warranty @ 12,000 miles. I told him i had 10,000 miles since last service. He spoke to manager & they serviced jeep. Jeep is again shuddering/clunking.
