Description of the problem | When driving between 0 to 5 miles per hour i pressed on the accelerator pedal while the auto was either on level surface or at the beginning of a small incline the auto did not move forward. Then i shifted the auto into reverse and stepped on the accelerator pedal and the auto did not move backwards. I then turned the auto off with the auto shifted into park. Then i restarted the auto and shifted into drive and pressed on the accelerator pedal and the auto did move forward. The same day i brought the auto into the jeep dealer whom i leased the auto from just five days earlier, to identify and fix the defect causing the aforementioned problem. On monday 11/8/10 the dealer informed me the vehicle is operating as designed and they found nothing wrong with it, and they returned the vehicle to me. I am concerned that the defect which caused the aforementioned problem on 11/6/10 could cause reoccurrence(s) of the aforementioned problem (even at higher speeds) |
