Description of the problem | I entered into a lease agreement in april 2015 for a new 2015 jeep cherokee limited, as time went on i noticed that the vehicle was shifting very hard, and at times it would lunge forward after having came to a stop for such things as stop sign, red lights and traffic delays. The vehicle has a 9 speed automatic electronic transmission in it and further noticed that the vehicle wasn't going into the upper gear ratio. I contacted the dealership where i leased the vehicle from, and they took the vehicle in and did a computer update on the electronic transmission. Since then, and as of very recent times, the vehicle is once again doing the same thing again. With added issues, in that that now after coming to a stop and taking my foot off the brake and accelerating, the rpms go up, but the vehicle doesn't move, and then suddenly will lunge forward. I have the vehicle scheduled to go back to the dealership on mon sept 21st. |
