 Description of the problemTransmission failed at 1,000 miles. Dealer replaced with a redesigned version. I started to get a wobble in the front end while i was accelerating. I brought it back and they said that it was a known issue and they were redesigning the front axles but the fix wasn't out yet. A few weeks later the metal frame in my sunroof broke and the weather stripping fell out and i couldn't close the shade. They informed me that the entire sunroof assembly had to be replaced because the frame was defective. The wobble continued to get worse and the car was shifting rougher than ever. I kept telling the dealership that there was something wrong, and they said "that's how the new 9 speed trans behave". When i brought the car in for the sunroof replacement i asked them to look at the wobble and trans again, and they informed me that the front axle was indeed bad. They put in the redesigned axles, and replaced the entire sunroof. I continue to have serious transmission issues and they put in a new valve body and updated the software. It's worse than ever. I kept complaining to jeep and all they said was "the dealership can't replicate your problem." i actually had the service manager in the car with me and he verified that the car does not drive properly- and when jeep called me, they told me that i had to go to another dealership. This car is not safe. It hesitates when you step on the gas, then it jerks very hard into second gear, it will accelerate on it's own because it can't find a gear to downshift, and the engine will spontaneously rev on it's own if i am descending a hill and its trying to downshift. The car will leap forward and accelerate until i press the brake hard enough to slow it down and it will finally shift. The rpms will go up for several seconds after i've applied the brake. The vehicle also rolls several inches after i put it in park now.
