3 transmission incidents when I have filled up with gas. After leaving the station the car has shifted into neutral and will not drive. The engine has sputtered and shut off. There are transmission warnings "service transmission to shift vehicle must be stopped" on my display. Also my malfunction indicator light, electronic throttle control and avoidance disabled are illuminated. When car is re-started there is a sudden almost violent jerking forward motion or engine ideals slowly and can stall out. This will be my third service call on for my transmission and I am feeling like I have a serious problem that could cause an accident, putting me and my family in harms way.

I had been driving my vehicle all night when all of the sudden out of no where the transmission service came onto my screen on the dash and my Jeep lost power and the brakes locked up and said that I need to service the brakes and the transmission. At the time this happened I was just starting to come to a complete stop at the light. This is really dangerous and needs to be reported that the transmission has failed or is not working correctly in this Jeep. What is someone gets killed?

Chryslter recall 3 S55 recall repair is taking too long to complete! I'm a heart patient and my wife has parkinson's and we have to trave over a mountain pass to see doctors. We feel unsafe in this car. We can not R]trade due to the length of the recall!

While driving straight on a two-lane highway, the transmission shifted itself into neutral and all forward power was gone. The gearshift lever could be moved, but would not put the car back into any gear. We turned on emergency flashers, put the gearshift in park, shut off the car. We re-started the car after a short period, and it then went back into gear. Fortunately, there was no one behind us when this happened. Had there been, it could easily have caused an accident. If it happened on an expressway, this could cause a fatal crash! we relayed this to a Jeep dealer in mesa, AZ. It is assumed to be related to your safety recall 16V-529. There are others talking about this on line. Please, get the manufacturer moving to fix this problem before someone gets hurt or killed.

Same or similar problem with 2014 Jeep Cherokee transmission: After car was bought new had a couple of situations where Jeep's dashboard display would all of a sudden while driving error(service transmission, must put car in park and restart)vehicle would be in limp mode had to coast to side of road and restart car, would bang while going into and out of gears... dealer changed the tcm(transmission control module 5/16) but gave me no paperwork stating such, just verbal.. same error again on 6/11/16, again on 7/29/16 and again on 10/19/16...error on display, car goes in limp mode, have to coast and restart...although, after a few engine shut off and restarts service error disappears...seems to happen mostly at speeds less than 55mph..will have to continue to pursue with dealer.....

Since I bought this Jeep new in 2014 its been unable to predictably go from stop to start. This is a major safety concern in stop and go traffic (which is daily where I live). I've had all the transmission flashes and each one seems to work for a week or two before this behavior returns. There's also a grinding/clanking noise when going from reverse to forward - the same noise can sometimes be heard when going over a speed bump.

- Issaquah, WA, USA

Transmission electronically shifted from drive to manual, while in traffic, three times so far. Service transmission, service emergency brake, traction control off, and mil illuminated(code P0887 stored). Software updates preformed in July. Transmission shifts erratically at low speeds since updates and problem back in October of 2016, with a rear end collision barely averted.

My 2014 Jeep Cherokee lost forward gears without warning. I was stopped and tried to pull out on a busy intersection. I lost all forward power limped forward 10 feet and stopped. Route 51 in jefferson borough is a major 4 lane and this could have caused a major accident. I had to reverse to safety. There is a known recall that Jeep is refusing to fix. They are putting peoples lives in danger with a sub standard transmission. I want Jeep to be held accountable for the entire transmission system and not just the parts they deem in their internal selection. If it supports a transmission they should stand behind their product and build it correctly. Safety should be a concern and obviously it isn't. my Jeep is less than 2 years old, I've complained multiple times about hard shifting to the dealer and all they did was adjust the shift points. Now my life is in danger because of their safety issue. Jeep needs to fix this known issue in all Jeep and not just a select few. Pleasant hills Jeep should be revoked as a 5 star dealer and Jeep should be forced to stop production of this substandard transmission.

My transmission has been jerking during gear shift since I bought the car. On the expressway traveling 75 mph in a high traffic area when my transmission completely quit and would not shift out of neutral. I lost speed rapidly and luckily I was unable to get to the side of the expressway without causing an accident.

2014 Jeep Cherokee transmission jerks. Took it to the dealer and they claim it's working as intended because it's a new technology. This transmission jerks and is very sluggish. I almost had an accident turning left at a busy intersection. The car did not want to accelerate. Luckily incoming traffic slowed down enough for me to pass. I fail to believe that this is normal and also fail to believe that there's nothing the dealer can do. Apparently there are thousands of other Cherokee owners with the same problem. Add me to the list. Any suggestions on what else I can do?

On October 10, 2016, I was driving on an access road next to a highway when my car lost motive power. I was driving at approximately 40mph and I did not have enough time to pull over from the lane I was in. My dashboard kept flashing "service transmission" and also to "put the car in park and re-start." For ten minutes, I attempted to re-start the vehicle and begin driving again. Each time I would try to put the car in drive, there was a very loud racket sound from shifting and I had to put the car back in park. Finally, on the sixth attempt, I was able to shift into drive without the sound and I immediately drove my car home. I am disheartened as this was a purchase of a used vehicle only a few days prior, on October 8, 2016, that had only 30,000 miles. Needless to say, my car is already at my local Jeep dealership for repair, and not much reassurance with regards to the associated recall, as parts are not ready yet. This was intended to be a family vehicle, but if it stops while driving, it will render my family completely unsafe. The S55 recall concerns a poorly designed wiring harness, that causes the computer to shift the vehicle into neutral while driving. NHTSA recall number: 16V529 recall date: August 22, 2016 manufacturer recall number: S55

Car randomly stops moving while driving, sometimes while turning a corner. Seems like it turns itself off, but lights on dash are still on. I'm not really sure what causes it and am hoping that it will be resolved once they have a solution to the current recall for the transaxle wire harness. Have brought it to dealer a few times and they keep telling us it has to do with the 20% oil life. I don't see how that would make a car turn off. And why would they make a car that needs to have the oil changed before the oil life is up or at all.

Driving at full speed on the highway the transmission suddenly disengaged, which led to redlining the rpms, because it failed to give me any control of throttle/acceleration. I had to get over and coast to the side of the road. The "service transmission" note came on the screen as well as check engine light. The transmission slammed a few times as if it were unable to find its gear. I have it at a dealership now, apparently being told flashing it may fix the issue...however, that doesn't make me feel better with how the vehicle acted or if any damage occurred due to this "computer" issue. This is our family vehicle, so having some major doubts right now.
