Consumer Description
SHIFTER GEAR HARNESS PTU REPLACEMANT. Driving down the road and the shifter light all light up and a message comes on saying service shifter the car has 45000 miles . take to dealer they say need a new shifter gear 535.00 . I google it to find out there is a recall on 2017 Jeep Cherokee but not on my vin ! really? have it fixed 3 months later a message appears on my dash again saying service 4wd . so I take it in and now the put is bad 3600.00 really ? jeep no help because original warranty expired .had a extended warranty also it read 75000 mils or 7 years guess what came first 7 years 2months after it expired this happen .I believe jeep is putting cars on the road they know has these problems also just two ago the shifter g service light came on again this time they said it was a cracked female cap on wire harness . they said as a courtesy they temp fixed no charge this time but if it happens again I would have to replace both shifter and harness 1200.00 cost really of course its going to happen again this car is lemon! they also told me that it was safe to drive while they order the Parts which takes weeks to get ! really safe to drive ? I don't think so as you read hundreds of people have the same problem . jeep has put their customer in unsafe vehicle where is the protection for the consumer? they say my vin is not on recall because of the factory it was produced in . that is crap its the parts that are bad and they are in all jeep Cherokee 2014 -2018!
