Consumer Description
MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE CITY STREET AND SUDDENLY A MEAASGE APPEARED ON MY SCREEN 'SERVICE SHIFTER' AND THE JEEP BEGAN TO JERK. THE LIGHTS ON EACH GEAR TURNED RED. WHEN I GOT TO A PLACE TO PARK. I CUT THE JEEP OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON. I THEN RECEIVED A MESSAGE WHEN I PUT THE JEEP IN DRIVE TO VERIFY IF IT WOULD DRIVE AND I RECEIVED ANOTHER MESSAGE STATING 'SHIFT TO PARK'. THE JEEP BEGAN TO JERK AGAIN. I'VE HAD THIS JEEP FOR ONE YEAR EXACTLY BOUGHT IT WITH ONLY ABOUT 3,000 MILES ON IT AND WITHIN 3 MONTHS IT COMPLETELY STOPPED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE AT ALL. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO THE DEARLERSHIP WHERE IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE AND OIL THAT HAD TO BE FIXED AND TOOK ALMOST 2 WEEKS. THIS JEEP HAS ALL TYPE OF PROBLEMS AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED
