Model Year	2008
File date	04/02/13
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle shifted into 4wd low by itself while driving in a parking lot. I parked the jeep in a parking space, and after placing the transmission selector in park, the jeep started rolling. I had to use the parking brake to keep it from rolling out of the space. The repair shop replaced the transfer case actuator and harness due to the transfer case shifting in and out of 4wd, and having no park, which caused it to roll. I paid to have this repair work done, just prior to jeep issuing recall n23. Jeep has refused to reimburse me for this repair. On three occasions, i have explained to the reimbursement dept, that my vehicle rolled out of it's parking space and shifted in and out of 4wd and neutral on its own. Chrysler customer assistance refuses to reimburse per the stated language in their own recall. I have sent chrysler all the required repair documents and receipts.
