| Description of the problem | On 6/30/2015 i took my vehicle in for p73 warranty recall. On7/12/2015 , when i was backing out of my driveway, my 2005 jeep shifted into low 4 wheel drive , without any touching of the lever to shift into 4 wheel drive. It took a couple blocks driving very slow to disengage from the 4 wheel drive low. I have an appt. To return to the dealer who performed the service, to have it checked. Right now i am hesitant to drive this vehicle, for fear it will shift into 4 wheel drive again, without my doing anything, which could do serious damage to the vehicle at the very least. I am reporting this so others might be informed that there could be a problem with the reprogram of the final drive control module. |
