Consumer Description

2005 JEEP LIBERTY DIESEL WITH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS DUE TO TORQUE CONVERTER. JEEP REPLACED THE FIRST ONE AT 28,000 MI AND I AM REPLACING THE 2ND AT 83,000 MI. I AM REPLACING IT BECAUSE BETWEEN 25 AND 45 MPH THE RPM'S CONSTANTLY VARY BY 200 TO 500 RPM AS WELL AS OCCASIONALLY A SHIFTING SHUDDER OCCURS WHICH CAN CAUSE RUPTURE OF THE TC AND SUBSEQUENTLY DESTRUCTION OF THE TRANSMISSION AT TIME OF ACCELERATION. I HAD TO DO SOMETHING TO AVOID BEING STRANDED ON A HILL SOMEWHERE. *TW
