 Description of the problemWhile driving on i-75 in june 2014 the jeeps temp. Light went on regarding the transmission was overheating and started to slow down. I pulled off the and was lucky to find a jeep dealer. I explained what happened,and the dealer checked the trans fluid and said it was fine he also said it was the heat from the highway and the outside temp was 90 degrees. We continued and the car ran fine after that. The same thing happened on sunday sept 21 2014 driving through pa. On i-80 the light went on and slowed down the outside temp. Was about 72 degrees and i was going about 70 mph. , i had to go on the soft shoulder and wait. I shut the engine of a waited about 15 min. I started the car the light went off and we drove to clarion pa. To a motel. Next day we left the motel and drove to il. The light never went on again. I believe this is a major problem due to the fact that the jeep automatically slowed down in heavy high speed traffic. It put me in a dangerous position. Even in the manual it states that this can happen and the jeep will downshift to protect the transmission.. Page 367- 6 and i was not towing. I feel jeep has to recall and correct this problem before someone gets into and accident and killed...
