Description of the problem | I parked the jeep and turned it off and when inside for 10 minutes and started the car to leave and a bunch of lights came on like service engine and drive train. I put it in reverse and a huge clunk from the transmission happened i backed up and put it in forward and a huge clunk happened again. It shocked the whole car. I went forward and it barley would go. It took along time to get up to speed. It kind of shook and was really scarey. I brought it to the jeep dealer and barely made it. The guy said the techs where all gone for the day. I couldn't leave it there so i started it back up and it worked fine. The check engine light was still on though. The next day i started it up and the light was off. It worked fine for 3 days until it all happened again the same stuff. So i turned it off and started it 10 minutes later and it was fine. It is a leased jeep and i am going to bring it in this friday. I want this fixed. I have read lots of the same problems with 100s of other people and it sounds like they are just giving people the run around. This is very unsafe and i want a new jeep or a new transmission. I do not have any time to be going back to the dealership all the time or do i want to die in a car accident. The next thing that happens a that people are saying is that it will shift out of gear on the freeway and lots of people have almost crashed because of this. Thank you please let me know what you will do about this. |
