Message "service shifter" pops up on the instrument panel, and a series of red alert lights appear next to every gear on the automatic transmission shifter lever. This problem is rampant among 2017-2018 Jeep Cherokee!! the dealers are unable to fix the problem! they replace the wiring harness, they replace the shifters themselves, they reset the computers ' and the problem always returns! the website https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-T68742_ds990296 alone contains the stories of over 80 Jeep Cherokee owners who have this ongoing problem. Imagine how many Jeep owners across America are suffering with this issue! Jeep replaced the 2014 shifters that were recalled (the ones that killed star trek actor anton yelchin in 2016) with this new shifter - and this one is just as bad! these vehicles must be recalled!!

October 2019 my car was sputtering at an idle and not shifting correctly and an engine coil was replaced.

I also start experiencing delays when attempting to accelerate it would lag for about 10 second before jerking into gear and lung forward at a higher speed. Took it back to the dealership and code P0304 misfire cylinder 4. dealership replaced (under power train warranty) boot kit - ignition coil, lubricant - dielectric, transmission mount, replaced valve body and trans range sensor.

I bought my car 3/21/2017 and I've loved it up until the recent problems. Since June/2019 when I make a left turn all of the lights on my gear shifter light up and a display of "service shifter" pops up and the only way to clear it is to pull over, turn the car off and start it up. At first it happened randomly, but now it more frequent. I purchased an extended warranty and they told me there is nothing wrong, but now an additional issue has started. Sometimes when all the lights appear when I'm make a turn or getting on the highway even, I've almost been rear ended multiple times because now the car will just shut off!! this is scary and unsafe, but it is my only means of transportation and yes all of my regular maintenance is up to date as well.

Our lights on shifter have all light up and screen in dash tells up service shifter while drivin, it drives fine but I am afraid that it will lock wheels on highway with my two little kids in the Jeep.we have taken it in 3 times after it happens and all we are told is they have to have the Jeep when shifter acts up and service shifter is on screen.also have had Jeep in service about radio freezes up nothing on screen or steering wheel works and was told the same thing. I am seeing both problem we are having a lot of people are dealing with too.I have called Jeep customer care and was told the same thing and was told the service manager said maybe I need to take it to another dealership and Jeep customer care closed the ticket on the issues.this dealership is larry H miller in Utah.I have 6000 miles left on warranty and I am feeling that the dealship doesn't care to fix the problems. It happened at roy, Utah.

Transmission shifts when it wants, get stuck in gears and shifts hard. Has almost caused me multiple accidents. Have taken it to Jeep multiple times- they have zero answers for me. My car isn't running any error codes so they will not address any issues.

When starting or driving the car, the service shifter among many other warnings come on and the car does not function normally after that. It is very sluggish and jerks while accelerating. This has happened while stationary and while in motion. Multiple trips to dealerships and two years later the problem is still happening. I know of many people that are having this issue and the manufactures are doing nothing about it. My family and I do not feel safe in this Jeep.
