Consumer Description

WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE, ONLY FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, AND I ATTEMPT TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE, IT STALLS OUT. ON SOME OCCASIONS THE RMP'S WILL DROP BUT IT WON'T ACTUALLY STALL OUT. THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THIS SITE AND ALL OVER THE JEEP FORUM. IT IS THE TORQUE CONVERTER, THIS WAS REPLACED IN MY VEHICLE. IT TOOK TWO DIFFERENT TRIPS, TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSIS AND FIX THE PROBLEM AS IT IS INTERMITTENT. I AM UNSURE WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL AS SO MANY JEEP OWNERS APPEAR TO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM.
