| Description of the problem | 2010 jeep wrangler 2dr, manual transmission. Transmission jumps out of 1st gear. The transmission will jump out of 1st gear (jog) into neutral when beginning to accelerate from a dead stop. This event occurs every so often without any warning whatsoever. The vehicle has 630 miles on it and this jumping out of gear has happened on more than a dozen occasions already. It has already put me in an unsettling situation, occurring while attempting to cross oncoming traffic. If it wasn't for quick reactions and a wide berth, an accident would have been unavoidable. It is only a matter of time where a person whose vehicle is suffering from defect is involved in an incident. Brought the vehicle in for service but the proposed fix (inner boot replacement and/or modification) has failed as the vehicle still jumps out of gear. Chrysler is aware of the issue but has only issued recommendations for how to potentially resolve the issue which do not always work (see previous sentence). |
