Description of the problem	Dangerous 2015 jeep cherokee latitude with 853 miles. First week of ownership i noticed a very odd shifting were the jeep would lung forward from 1st to 2nd gear at about 5mph, hard shifts, and was struggling to find gears at 35-40mph along with a nonresponsive gas pedal that spooked me during many acceleration instances of slow speeds and highway speeds. Took into the dealership where i bought it from and explained what was being experienced, with the back up camera being saturated with light, and gas door that was not aligned with the body. They checked for codes but a service light never appeared. Was told there were updates that need to be installed. After the update,which i assumed was a power train update for the transmission. Left dealership and it all started happening again with the transmission. So was told by a service rep need to let the transmission learn my driving habits whith no harsh acceleration because of the 350 mile breakin period. Drove for a while too see if it would smooth out. Nope it didn't it started having an odd feeling when put in drive and moving forward like the clutchs in the transmission were slipping which gives the sensation of wobble vibrration. Returned it back to the dealership again for second time due to when in the mid del of an intersection while making a left turn with appropriate throttle applied it suddenly loss power with traffic coming from opposite direction so i had to wot the gas pedal to get it to move then it responded with me over accelerating into a turn and immediately got off the gas and had to apply brake pressure and control steering. It happended quiet a few times before i finally got frustrated with it and returned to dealer for service 3rd time. Was told couldn't duplicate,so they can't fix it. Filed complaint with fca for remedy. This jeep makes me fear driving it.
