| Description of the problem | My wife was driving and just about to get onto the interstate and with no warning, she couldn't accelerate past 25-30mph. Luckily she was able to pull to the side of the road quickly without an issue and turned the car off, waited a minute and started the jeep up again and was then able to accelerate. When talking to the dealer, they have never heard of this problem before. When jeep was checked at a local dealer, they pulled error codes that pointed to the transmission speed sensor. Only about $700 to replace that with labor!! The sensors are all part of the circuit board and thus need to dismantle the transmission to replace the sensors. Then i get on this site and see all the complaints with the same issue. This weekend i'm going car searching to get rid of this thing. |
