problem #1

Jan 122000

Grand Cherokee 4WD

  • miles
The speed control will not hold a consistant speed, it will slowly drop in speed on level ground, down hill, and up hill. When the speed drops to a certain level the transmission will shift to a lower gear and then founder some more. The dealership doesn't seem to be able to find anything wrong with the unit from their computer checking. I have been to the dealership 4 times with no luck.

- Indianapolis, IN, USA
