Description of the problem | The problem is with the transmission electronic shift lever on the jeep grand cherokee 2015. Chrysler jeep know about the problem and there is a recall. This is the same vehicle that recently made world press when the 2015 jeep rolled back and killed the famous movie actor in california. On two separate times, when we put the car into park, the shifter slips out of park and goes into neutral and rolls. During one of the occasions the jeep came out of park and rolled and hit our garage. There was no major damage and fortunately no one was injured or killed, but it did crack the bumper and pushed it up. And although jeep stated in their recall notice that they intend to repair the vehicle free of charge, they have refused to assume any responsibility for the accident and yet they have contacted me a number of times to make sure i take my vehicle in to get the recall repaired. Fiat chrysler automobiles has been incompetent and unethical in handling this problem. In my opinion, fca is more concerned with covering up the problem and the accidents that have occurred then taking responsibility for their faulty parts and construction. |
