Description of the problem | Less than 90 days after buying a new jeep cherokee i watched it towed away b/c it was un-driveable. It began in the morning when the gears were not shifting appropriately. Then a few hours later, the engine would rev, and car would speed up, even though i wasn't pushing gas pedal. Then reverse failed. Then the parking brake light came on. Finally, it stopped shifting up -- i had to floor it to go 5 miles an hour. I ultimately had to coast home. ....
