Description of the problem | My jeep's transmission in gears 1 and 2 will sporadically have issues with hesitations, stalling, jerking the car forward, and loud clunk sounds during shifting. I will be at a stop sign stopped, push the gas to go and it will hesitate for 1 second, then jolt forward when it decides to move. One instance i was driving on a city street and wanted to go faster, i pressed on the gas and it all of sudden seemed to have stalled out. Gas was not doing anything for a good 5 seconds. I was in the process of trying to get out of traffic as my speed was declining and then it kicked in and went. As of recent, it has started to make a loud clunk sound and slight jerk when moving from low gears while in motion. Again this is all sporadic. It does not happen all the time. I brought it into two different dealerships about the issue. They flashed the electronic component both times. Flashing seemed to help for a few weeks, then it slowly went back to the sporadic behavior. Note: this has been over 3 years, not once specific instance. |
