Consumer Description
ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON LIGHTING ON AND OFF. I WENT TO MECHANIC AND IT'S THE COOLANT THERMOSTAT. WHICH MIGHT BE AFFECTING MY INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE. IN COLD WEATHER ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND IN HOT WEATHER IT TURNS ON. THIS CAUSES MY JEEP TO STRUGGLE WHEN I WANT TO SPEND UP ON HIGHWAY. THE OTHER ANNOYING PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN I'M IN IDLE AT A STOP LIGHT THE JEEP SHAKES SO MUCH THAT I FEEL IT ALL OVER CAR. IT ALSO HAS A VERY LOUD NOISE TO IT. MY OTHER PROBLEM IS WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE MY VOLUME TO MY RADIO GOES DOWN. NEVER FAILS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TELL SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I HAD MY JEEP DIAGNOSED 3 TIMES AND IT COMES OUT THAT IT'S THE THERMOSTAT. DEALERSHIP WAS TELLING IT WAS THE FUEL INJECTOR WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH COOLANT ISSUES. I ALSO HEAR MY TRANSMISSION CLICK HARD WHEN CHANGING GEARS FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE. IT IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.
