| Description of the problem | On approximately 9/4/2014 we were traveling on ca hwy 15 in the baker ca area, temp was approx. 95 deg. And we were going up hill. About half way up, the transmission temp. Light came on and the vehicle started to loose power and slow down. As we pulled to the shoulder of the road we continued to the top and started down the grade, about half way down the light went out and the vehicle ran normal. We took the vehicle to the dealer and was told this was a problem with this vehicle and that the only thing they could try was to replace the cooler bypass valve which they did. On approximately 6/5/15 and approximately the same area the same problem happened. On 6/15/15 we took the vehicle to the dealer again and was told that this a condition of the vehicle a that nothing can be done to fix the problem. I also called the main service hotline for jeep and was told the same thing. |
