| Description of the problem | the transfer case is not allowed to go into neutral which is a requirement to tow behind my motorhome. I am 2,000 miles from home and the fault would require my wife to drive the jeep home instead of having it towed behind the motorhome. It is a safety issue as we take turns driving so there is an alert driver at all times, driving separate vehicles would require twice the drive time. This issue was caused by chrysler when they did recall n23. The recall was not properly tested resulting in the transfer case to not work properly. |
