Description of the problem | My 2015 jeep cherokee latitude has a v-6 motor and the 9 speed transmission. My problem is with the shifting of the transmission. The transmission will shift hard and with a terrible jolt that actually moves me in my seat. This has been occurring for the last 3 years, since 2016, the hard shift occurs upon acceleration from a stop and between 1st 2nd 3 gear, . This normally happen at a normal accerlating speed hardly ever happens when i am accerlating at high speed. This hard shifting seems to happen like i said during slow speed accerlating and and driving in slower city traffic. It feels like the transmisson could break at any time because of the terrible jerking , jolting, and harshness of the shift. This hard shifting as been going on continually for the last 3 years ago. I bought this jeep brand new in 2015 and this has been an habitually problem for the last 3 years. This happens on a regular basis this is not an intermitten problem. |
