Description of the problem | While braking at 24 miles per hour the car abruptly downshifts and causes the vehicle to accelerate. I have noticed the longer i drive the vehicle, it will happen while i am slowing down at higher speeds at well. I have taken the jeep to the dealership and they have flashed and updated my transmission but they said it was fixed but it was not. It is acting up more than it was before. It is incredibly dangerous to drive this car especially when trying to brake around a curve because it will speed up by itself. |
