NHTSA Complaint #10667367 — 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE

HAVE HAD TWO TIMES THE VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WARNING CAME ON TO "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" WITH NO RESPONSE FROM DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. AT THESE TWO TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS AT A FULL STOP AND THE DASH WAS FULL OF WARNING LIGHTS FOR DIFFERENT THINGS. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTED FROM DRIVE TO PARK, THERE WAS A LOUD AND VIOLENT JERKING BY THE TRANSMISSION. THIS TRANSMISSION HAS HAD IT'S SOFTWARE UPDATED MANY TIMES, WHICH HAS NOT HELPED. DEALER TECH WAS ABLE TO OBSERVE THIS CONDITION AND REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY. AFTER REPLACING THE VALVE BODY AND AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 50 MILES ON A INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION WARNING CAME ON. TOOK THE NEXT EXIT AND STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC STOPLIGHT, THE CAR WOULD LUNGE AND JERK VIOLENTLY TRYING TO GO. SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND LET THE CAR RESET ITSELF. WILL NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND WILL ASK CHRYSLER TO SUPPLY A RENTAL VEHICLE AT THEIR EXPENSE UNTIL THEY HAVE REPLACED MY VEHICLE. THIS MAKES THREE TIMES THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THIS TRANSMISSION ISSUE AS FAR I AM CONCERNED IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
