 Description of the problemThe vehicle has repeatedly come up with a "service shifter" message since i purchased it in dec of 2015 new. The dealership replaced the shifter assembly, but the problem kept happening. They kept flashing the software and telling me it was fine. At the end of july 2018, i took my vehicle in for an oil change and to have the headlight researched because it had begun to flicker along with one of the two license plate lights. The dealership told me that the headlight and the lisence plate lights went out at the same time by coincidence. I tried to contact jeep/chrysler directly and explain there was a bigger problem but they wouldnt listen. Days later, i stopped for gas, shut off the car and filled the tank. When i got back in the car wouldnt start. I kept trying to turn it on but it wouldnt make a sound. Finally, after about 25 minutes the car turned on. Once on, error messages light up my dash: service shifter, service parking break, service engine, service transmission, and others. I tried to shift into gear but it shifted hard and sounded like the transmission was going to drop. The car wouldnt move. Towed the car to dewey dodge. They flashed it, told me it was fine, and made me come get it and wouldnt look further. 24 hours later, i was stranded again, car wouldnt start. Towed it again. They told me it was the battery, even though they had previously told me they did a 27pt inspection and it was fine a day prior... They had my car for 2 months. Once i got it back, i had it for only a few days and i was stuck again. After about 30 minutes the car turned on, and i was able to try to drive home. While on highway, service shifter appeared again. Dewey replaces the wiring harness and the shifter again. Chrysler refuses to acknowledge a widespread issue even though multiple online forums have a collection of people detailing the same problems!
