Consumer Description

2015 CHEROKEE LATITUDE 4 CYL. HAVE HAD VEHICLE FOR 2 MONTHS, DURING THIS TIME THE TRANSMISSION HAS HAD A MIND OF ITS OWN. ACCELERATING DURING BRAKING, WHICH IN AND OF ITSELF IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE SLOWING TO MAKE A TURN, IF YOU NEED TO TURN AT 10 MPH AND THE CAR ACCELERATES PAST 25 YOU ARE LOOKING AT AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. LAG IN DOWNSHIFT WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE, LOUD UN EXPLAINED CLUNK WHILE PLACING INTO PARK, NUMEROUS ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ACTIVATIONS. CALLED LOCAL DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT I NEEDED TO WAIT A FEW DAYS TO SEE IF WARNING LIGHT RESETS ITSELF BEFORE BRINGING IN. THE TRANSMISSION NEVER SEEMS TO ACTUALLY SHIFT INTO 9TH GEAR, WHICH INTURN HAMPERS THE FWY MILEAGE CLAIMS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS VEHICLE. IVE NOTICED THE TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE EXCEED 240 DEGREES ON NUMEROUS TIMES, THIS CANNOT BE GOOD. I WILL BE TAKING VEHICLE TO DEALER, HOPEFULLY IN AN EFFORT TO GET THIS RESOLVED. WITH ALL OF THE REVIEWS AND PROBLEM, WILL IT TAKE AN UNFORTUNATE FATALITY FOR CHRYSLER TO ACTUALLY RESOLVE THIS, AS IN THE CASE OF THE TOYOTA ACCELERATION PROBLEMS? *TR
