This vehicle has had a clunking noise in the transmission ever since I purchased it. In that time the dealership has said the noise was caused by the ring and pinion which has been replaced. It has been diagnosed as the transfer case chain being bad which was replaced. It has been diagnosed as the rear gears being bad which were replaced. It has been a "tsb" which was a ball and transmission plate valve which were replaced. They also replaced the transfer case as it was bad. Lastly, they removed and reconditioned the transmission. None of these have corrected my car. However, now that it is out of warranty they tell me for approx. $3000 they will replace the rear end as it is bad.

While driving in 2 wheel drive on a highway at @50 mph, the car shifted itself into 4-wheel drive. We were approx 10 miles from a dealership, so we took it to darling automall in ellsworth, me. They test drove it and could not get the car to go back to 2-wheel drive. They disassembled parts of the transmission and found some components in the transfer case had failed. It has taken 5 days for the repair to be completed (we have not picked up vehicle at this writing) we contacted Jeep regarding this problem.

- Greenville, ME, USA

Transmission seems to shift very rough from 2nd to 3rd. If driving at speeds around that shift window (20-30), rough kick in back end like getting hit from the rear. Transmission also seems to stall the engine on sharp turns. This has happened to me at least 3 times in the last couple months. Vehicle has been in to dealer for first complaint at least twice. No error codes detected in PCM either time. Dealer went ahead and reloaded software, but did not solve problem. Also reported problem to mfg, who recommended taking vehicle to local dealer. Local dealer can't fix though. Chrysler not helping with problem.

- Bloomington, IL, USA

Also had fuel pump failure in conjunction with transmission failure w/in the first year to year and a half of ownership of this vehicle. The dealer contacted Chrysler, but I was not eligible for lemon law coverage. They did extend the warranty on this leased vehicle. (dealership) I have never felt safe in this vehicle, and I cannot believe that we paid $32500 for something that is only worth less than $10000 today. Chrysler should buy these vehicles back from people, but they have been unwilling to assist.
