Description of the problem	I have had the same complaint about my jeep grand cherokee 5. 7l automatic transmision as the recall notice described below. That is, 8 out of 10 times, whenever i turn on the airconditioning (particularly in weather above 90 degrees) the car shutters if asked to pull forward or reverse. This problem is particularly bad and more predictable to occur if reversing; i. E., backing out of a parking space. Over the last 3-4 years, i have asked two or three dealerships to look into the matter, citing the recall below, but they said that there is no way my car could have the same problem. One dealer claimed to have adjusted the clutch assembly on the air conditioner -- this did not help. ----------------- nhtsa campaign id number: 05v396000 summary: on certain sport utility vehicles equipped with 3. 7l engines and nag1 automatic transmissions, the air conditioner evaporator condensate water may enter the transmission at the fill tube grommet seal. ***** this can result in shudder during torque converter clutch engagement. Consequence: it can lead to increased transmission operating temperatures, boiling of the water, and a subsequent purging of transmission fluid into the engine compartment potentially resulting in an underhood fire. Remedy: dealers will inspect the transmission for leakage at the fill tube grommet seal. If no leak is detected.
