Consumer Description
2017 JEEP CHEROKEE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT STARTED COMING ON RANDOMLY AT 28,000 MILES. USUALLY TURNING OFF THE CAR AND CRANKING IT BACK UP WOULD MAKE THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT GO AWAY. NOW AFTER ONLY OWNING THE CAR FOR 2 YEARS IT IS STARTING TO SHIFT OUT OF GEAR AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT STAYS ON MOST OF THE TIME. SOMETIMES DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE SHIFTER LIGHT WILL POP ON OUT OF NOWHERE. IN THE TWO YEARS I'VE OWNED IT I'VE ONLY PUT 20,000 MILES ON IT. LEFT THE DEALERSHIP TODAY TO FIND OUT THIS PART IS NOT COVERED IN THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. I'VE GOTTEN ONE QUOTE FOR $800 TO REPLACE THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS. THIS IS A 2017 WITH ONLY 40,000 MILES. ALL OVER THE INTERNET JEEP OWNERS TELL OF AN IDENTICAL STORY WITH THEIR JEEPS. JEEP NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THIS BEING A FAULTY PART. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SPEND THIS MUCH MONEY TO FIX A FAULTY PART. WILL NEVER BUY A JEEP AGAIN
