Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAS A RECURRING PROBLEM WHEN DRIVING EXTENDED DISTANCES OR IN HILLY AREAS, THE TRANSMISSION WILL BEGIN WHINING AND TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT WILL TURN ON, VEHICLE WILL THEN LOSE POWER AND WILL HAVE TO BE PULLED OVER ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES BEFORE IT COOLS DOWN ENOUGH TO DRIVE ANOTHER TEN MINUTES. AFTER HAVING IT EXAMINED BY A MECHANIC, I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE WITH THE 2005-2010 JEEP PATRIOTS EQUIPPED WITH CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND REQUIRES A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT, AND THAT IF IT IS REPLACED WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION, I CAN EXPECT THE SAME ISSUE LATER ON.
