NHTSA Complaint #10789030 — 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE

DRIVING TO WORK ON HWY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC I ACCELERATED UP A SMALL HILL CAR JERKED THEN POWERED DOWN ON HWY AT 65 MPH I WAS ABLE TO COAST OVER THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC AND PULL OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD THEN NOTICED SERVICE TRANSMISSION, CHECK PARKING BREAK, PUT CAR IN PARK AND THEN SELECT GEAR ALL CAME ON AS MESSAGES ALSO THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. PUT CARE IN PARK AND RESTARTED ENGINE ALL LIGHTS/MESSAGES STILL ON DASH AND CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR FOR DRIVING. TRIED TWO MORE TIMES AND FINALLY COULD DRIVE UNDER 50 MPH STRAIGHT TO DEALER FOR SERVICE. THE CHECK TRANSMISSION LIGHT REMAINED ON DURING MY ENTIRE DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP. I HAD PREVIOUSLY EXPERIENCED ACCELERATION WHEN IN TRAFFIC COASTING AND MY FOOT OFF GAS PEDAL. ALSO HARD SHIFTING MULTIPLE TIMES LIKE IT WAS SKIPPING GEARS WHEN ACCELERATING. VERY SCARY AND UNSAFE SITUATION TO BE IN.
