| Description of the problem | I have a 2006 jeep grand cherokee laredo, 3. 7l v6. I have many problems with the transmission, first it was the shifter, second it was a solenoid problem, now i have a shutter and vibration as i am driving down the expressway. I have had it in 3 times now for the same problem. When the tranny starts to vibrate, i notice that the rpms go up about 2-3000rpms. Took it back and the repair guy says that jeep has recalled the torque converters for a shutter problem and could replace it up 100k miles. I have over 100k and it will not get fixed under this recall or tsb due to mileage, i think someone needs to take a hard long look at the time that chrysler should have to replace at their expense. This issue has cost me well over $1000 so far and it is back in the shop for the same thing yet again today. |
