| Description of the problem | Transmission overheats & vehicle shuts down when driving at speeds over 60mph on the highway. Forced to pull off the roadside to wait until it cools down. Its happened to me on several occasions where there was barely any shoulder along the highway, i thought my granddaughter & i were going to be killed. Ive had it to the dealership mutliple times for this problem since purchasing it from dealership and have had no resolve. On one occasion the jeep had been at the dealership for a month now and all they kept telling me is that they cant do anything about it. Current situation - last month (march) i am unable to drive the jeep over 20 mph. I've contacted the dealership multiple times regarding this and i can't get anyone to give me an answer if they are going to take care of the transmission. I am angry at this point. We've been complaining about the transmission to the dealership since we purchased it now i am without a vehicle and i work in healthcare. I think this may fall under the lemon law. It might be time to contact an attorney. Please help |
