Consumer Description
My 2014 jeep cheroke limited stopped working without any prior warning. I was driving on the highway with my company children. I was going at a speed of 65 miles per hour, when it began to fail in a life, first I noticed the air conditioning stopped working, then I slowed down and stopped accelerating, I noticed that the speed changes suddenly began to change from Drive ( D) to neutral (N), and I got a picture on the dash saying I needed to check my transmission. So what I wanted was to get off the road because I was afraid that my three children were with me and I was afraid that something bad would happen, but the bad thing is that I couldn't stop, because there wasn't enough and safe space where I could stop the truck. and many cars came behind me. So I went about a half mile and was able to get off the road. It was when my truck stopped hard and put itself in Neutral (N) and didn't want to go any further. The air conditioning did not want to work either. When I got off and checked it, I noticed that my truck had oil in the back. So all I thought of was calling my husband and he went to the place where we were to pick us up. The weirdest thing that happened to me was that I never had any warning on the dash before until it started to go bad that day. My husband had checked the truck out because I was going out of state. He always did the corresponding checkups and oil changes because that is the truck that we used for my children and I. The next day we returned for the truck and took it in a trailer to the mechanic to find out what had happened and he said that the transmission did not work, that that happens in these 2014 trucks. My question is what can I do? I want to fix my truck because it's the one I take my kids to school in but I'm afraid it's going to break down again. I began to investigate further and saw that I am not the only one to whom this has happened. Even a co-worker of my husband's went through the same situation as me.
