Description of the problem | The electronic shifter is dangerous, i never know when i am in park, drive, neutral. It is extremely difficult to operate. I have asked chrysler to install the redesigned 2016 model in my 2015. The redesigned model operate well. I am now concerned for the safety of myself and family members. It was predictable that someone died because of this extremely difficult and poorly designed electronic shifter. Nhtsa should force jeep/chrysler to install the 2016 redesigned shifter in all 2015 jeep grand cherokees. Please investigate the anton yelchin death in los angeles. I drive one of these electronic shifters and i am confident that you will that this 2015 electronic shifter caused his death. It is freightning to drive this 2015 grand cherokee because you think you put it in park but it is really sitting in neutral. |
