| Description of the problem | We tried to start the jeep at our home (street) and it would not start. But the electrical system started flickering. After some research, we decided to have the battery checked. The battery was used for 34 months of driving. Interstate battery tested it and it was low. We decided to buy a new one and installed it. Now the jeep starts but there is a service shifter warning light and the gear shifter does not light up. We cannot put it into gear. There are numerous complaints on different jeep forums. Some dealers cannot solve the issue, while other find that different harnesses are the problem. Our vehicle is out of warranty, and believe jeep should initiate a recall to correct this problem for its customers. |
