 Description of the problemSafety concern: the issue with the 2016 jeep grand cherokee i leased is that it slips out of drive and into neutral while the car is in motion! This happens on its own, without my touching the gear shift. When it slips into neutral, the gear shift says its still in drive. Three times i have taken my car in to be serviced for this problem to the dealer ship i leased it from and each time they have told me that their diagnostic test shows that there is nothing wrong with it, yet it continues slipping out of drive and into neutral. I most recently took the car to a different jeep dealership and they are telling me the same thing. I have called fiat chrysler corporation and spoken with gina lewis from their "jeep resolution team" and they are not interested in fixing or getting the car off the road. They only tell me that because their diagnostic tests don't show that there is a problem, it is undocumented, therefore i should pick up the car and drive it. I understand the lemon laws and that problems need to be documented but this is potentially a life threatening safety issue and i am not willing to drive the car and wait for something terrible to happen before they acknowledge that there is a major transmission issue. At this point i am profoundly frustrated with the unwillingness of the dealer ships and fiat chrysler corporation to do something about this dangerous car. It should also be noted that there was a recall for shift interlock solenoid in the beginning of 2016. I am terrified to drive my car and truly fear for myself and others until this car is taken back by chrysler.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
