| Description of the problem | I bought this vehicle through a finance company so the dealer got paid i pay a note i felt a shudder like lose of power i was told by dealer to put gas treatment in tank it was prob bad gas this was 4 days after i drove off the lot then my grandbaby almost gets run over when i put in gear park and got out i hear everyone screaming that the jeep was moving i jump in expecting to see it still in drive but to my shock it was in park. This was on day 7 after i drove off lot i drive to work and try to pull off from red light and it was like i had no transmission i have towed to jeep dealership thinking they would know best what is wrong well low and behold i get the whopper of a call to let me know that my jeep was sold to me with issues already cause i have water contamination in my transmission and did i mention their are two recalls on jeep one belongs to mine cause it is the ignition switch that almost ran over grand baby but how convenient for them to tell me that my jeep doesn't fall under the fill tube leaking into my trans recall but yet i have the same problem. How is it so far fetched that the larado's are effected.`so basically i bought a car for 12. 500 for it to possibly kill my family by jumping in neutral oh but i guess i don't have to worry bout that recall since my car is sittin in jeep of @@###$$ with a blown transmission can someone else tell me if they have water in transmission without ever being in water mine is leaking from fill tube seal and blew the tourqe converter and now i need a 5000 transmission and everyone is pointing the finger at the other and i am about to lose my job from no transportation cause of this i am a single mother who put her entire savings down on a unsafe deathtrap with a warranty that nobody will honor helpppppp how do i prove my fill tube seal is leaking and try to get this under this recall |
