I'VE NOTICED OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS MY JEEP SEEMS HESITANT SHIFTING GEARS, ESPECIALLY GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. LAST WEEK, AFTER BACKING PUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AND STARTING DOWN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND READ "PARK VEHICLE TO SHIFT". I HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, AND TURN THE CAR OFF TWICE AND RESTART IT IN ORDER TO GET HER GOING AGAIN. LUCKILY, AS EMBARRASSING AS IT WAS, THE VEHICLES WAITING ON ME WERE VERY POLITE AND PATIENT. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY EVENING. I BACKED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT AND TURNED ONTO THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT AND READ "PARK VEHICLE TO SHIFT". I AGAIN TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WENT TO TURN IT ON. SHE SPUTTERED AND SPUTTERED AND THE ECT LIGHT POPPED UP ON THE DASH BEFORE SHE FINALLY TURNED OVER AND THE LIGHT WENT AWAY. I WAS GOING OUT OF TOWN THAT NIGHT AND I WAS A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT GETTING STRANDED. I DID MAKE IT BACK HOME, BUT THE NEXT MORNING, SHE DID THE SAME THING. I MADE IT DOWN THE STREET THIS TIME AND SHE STALLED OUT WHILE I WAS STOPPED AT THE STOP SIGN BEFORE TURNING 9NTO A 4 LANE HIGHWAY. GOOD THING SHE STALLED OUT BEFORE I HAD PULLED ONTO THE HIGHWAY. I FOLLOWED SUIT AND HAD TO RESTART HER ONCE OR TWICE AND SHE SPUTTERED AND SPUTTER WHICH JUST BROKE MY HEART. MY FUEL WAS LOW THIS MORNING AND WE LIMPED OVER TO THE GAS STATION, SHE WAS SHIFTING WEIRD THE ENTIRE TIME. I DIDN'T TURN HER OFF BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID SHE MAY NOT HAVE TURNED BACK ON. AFTER GETTING GAS, SHE STARTED TO RUN MORE SMOOTH BUT SHE STILL HESITATES TO SHIFT.

I HAVE HAD MY CAR JUST UNDER 2 YEAR, PURCHASED NEW. WHEN PURCHASING THE CAR I ASKED IF THEY WOULD INSTALL A REMOTE START AND WAS TOLD TO JUST TAKE IT TO CAR TOYS. WE DID ALMOST A YEAR LATER. WE ARE AT 1 YR 10 MTHS AND JUST OVER 26,00 MILES. JUST RECENTLY THE CAR STATED STALLING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I WOULD HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK TO BE ABLE TO START GOING AGAIN AND THEN IT LAGS TO GET GOING AND QUITS SHIFTING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON. SOMETIMES IT FLASHES THOUGH SEVERAL ERRORS, TOO FAST TO READ THEM ALL. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN TO THE ORIGINAL DEALER 3 TIMES AND ANOTHER DEALER ONCE. I WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A COMPUTER UPDATE, THE WIRING HARNESS NEEDED FIXED AND OTHER THINGS. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED THE FIRST3 TIMES. THIS LAST TIME THEY ARE TELLING ME IT IS THE AFTER MARKET STARTER, THEY THINK. THEY CANNOT GUARANTEE IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM BUT NOW THEY ARE SAYING NOTHING IS UNDER WARRANTY. THE AFTER MARKET STARTER HAS BEEN ON THERE 11 MONTHS WITHOUT ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS 9/26.19. THE CURRENT DATE IS 11/13/19. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. MOST TIMES I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN BUT HAVE BEEN LUCK TO BE BY MYSELF EACH TIME THE CAR HAS STALLED.

CAR HESITATED AT THE BEGINNING I TAKE FOOT OFF GAS N IT LIKE SKIPS OR THUMPS HARD TO EXPLAIN BUT KINDA LIKE THE GAS PEDDLE STICKS THEN LETS GO WITH A CRANK SOUND MAINLY WHEN LOW ON GAS BUT EVERY NOW N THEN FOR NO REASON IM SHORT SO I DONT LIKE JUST LET GO IN A HURRY,NO ONE TAKES ME SERIOUS BEEN IN SHOP LIKE FOIUR TIMES THEY SAID I GOT A FUEL MODUAL RECAL REPLACEMENT BUT IM NOT SURE WHY THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN

ACCORDING TO THE DEALER I MUST CHECK MY OIL EVERY 1K MILES TO CHECK THE OIL LEVEL. THIS IS ABOUT THE 3RD TIME MY CAR HAS STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. WHEN I CALL THE DEALER ALL THEY SAY IS DID YOU CHECK YOUR OIL. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS ON SUN, NOV 3, 2019. WHY ARE COMPANIES ALLOWED TO SELL PRODUCTS THEY ARE FULLY AWARE HAVE DEFECTS, TO TURN AROUND AND MAKE IT THE CONSUMERS RESPONSIBILITY.

THE 2.4 LT ENGINE IS CONSUMING OIL AT AN ACCELERATED RATE. ABOUT 2.5 QTS EVERY 1000 MILES. AT TIMES THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO STALL WHEN ACCELERATING AND TURNING INTO TRAFFIC. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND BEFORE THE FIRST SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE. THE DEAL IS RECOMMENDING REPLACING THE ENGINE AFTER 3-4 SERVICES. THE DEALERSHIP HAS US BRINGING THE CAR INTO FOR SERVICE TOPPING OFF THE OIL AND HAVING US REPORT BACK EVERY 1000 MILES.*DT
