Consumer Description

THE FIRST INCIDENT IN OCTOBER JEEP CAME TO COMPLETE STOP ON HIGHWAY.ALSO WOULD ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. IT WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THEY DROVE IT SENT INFO TO CHRYSLER THEY SAID IT NEEDED TRANSMISSION REPLACED. WAS IN SHOP 22 DAYS. DEC.30 2014 TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP, FOR SEVERAL ISSUES. WOULD NOT TAKE OFF WHEN YOU PRESSED GAS PEDAL AFTER 2 ATTEMPTS IT LUNGE AND BEGAN MOVING , DRIVING IN TRAFFIC PRESSED THE BRAKE AND IT DID NOT SLOW DOWN INSTEAD IT SPEED UP AFTER PRESSING BREAK HARDER IT SLOWED. FEW DAYS LATER IT WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT SOUNDED LIKE IT IN FIRST GEAR.THEY ONCE AGAIN REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND UPDATED THE SOFT WARE . IT SOUNDS LIKE THE SHOCKS ARE BAD BUT THEY DIDN'T ADDRESS THIS ISSUE EITHER. IT RIDES AND FEELS LIKE IT SWAYS ALL OVER THE ROAD. THIS JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE WAS BOUGHT NEW IN 2014 . I THINK IT IS SERIOUSLY A ROAD HAZARD. *TR
