 Description of the problemAround 1,500 miles my brand new 2010 jeep wrangler "sport" with a 6 speed manual transmission popped out of 1st gear very violently - thought i had hit something. About every 100 miles or so after that incident, it will pop out of 1st gear into neutral - or - grind gears. It was happening so often, i contacted my dealer who told me it wasn't "a problem of chrysler" maybe i wasn't driving it correctly. I started to "push" it into 1st gear with more attention, holding my hand on the shifter, this seemed to work okay, until one day, after i pushed it into 1st gear, it popped out so hard it almost broke my wrist! It seems to pop out of 1st several times a week now, driving around town (stop and go traffic); once it popped out of 1st so hard it went right into 2nd gear! Its extra scary when it happens at a red light intersection and when i start to proceed, it will pop out leaving me without power in the middle of the intersection, with people behind me - i have to quickly throw it into 2nd because it won't go back into 1st. I have 23,000 miles on my jeep now. I can confidently say it has happened over a 1,000 times!! I have started to "feel" when it might happen, while my hand is on the shifter, it seems to start to wobble - as if something isn't connected right. I have tried pulling it out of 1st gear when i stop, re-shift into 2nd gear/1st gear - doesn't fix it. I have tried to baby it, shifting softer, and even rev the engine and "peel" out - it doesn't matter, it happens no matter what i do. I'm taking it to a different dealer this afternoon, maybe they will listen to my plight. I will happily testify to a grand jury that this is a major problem with the 2010 jeep wrangler 6 speed manual transmission.
