Consumer Description
2015 jeep grand cherokees going into neutral on occasion while driving at speeds above 45mph. I brought my truck to jeep and expressed my concern about this safety issue and my safety. I was informed by jeep there is nothing wrong with my jeep since no codes are showing. I asked to speak to the mechanic and the mechanic told me that there is not one problem with that jeep and the 8 gear transmission is the most stable. He then said you probably put the jeep in neutral while driving. I was completely frustrated with his response and said to him, do you think I would put my jeep in neutral while driving 55mph and risk my life and possibly someone elses? I left the dealership very upset as you can imagine. A few days later it happened again and I contacted the jeep dealer to let them know the issue. Never heard back from them. I was also given the email of my service manager. I sent him a video of what happened after the car went into neutral. I also sent him links that I found online about other jeep owners complaining of their jeep going into neutral while driving. I have not heard back from the dealership yet. My guess, jeep is trying to hide this known issue. When the jeep goes into neutral the check engine light goes on and you cannot put car back in drive you have to coast to side of road. Try doing that on a 3 lane highway. Very very dangerous! Please look into this issue 🙏. I bought the car from carmax and carmax said I could have jeep look into issue. The jeep repair center reports there is no issue nor have they heard of any issue like this. If you google jeep goes into neutral while driving there are many threads about such incidents. I need help please. Upload link is not working but I have a copy of the invoice they have given me. [XXX] h INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
