problem #1

Grand Cherokee Overland Hemi 5.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 39,689 miles

After the front differential was diagnosed, I was informed the rear differential had to be completely rebuilt at 24K! Does anyone have a similar experience? I'm being told the Hemi engine is too powerful for the drive train in the Jeep? I'm also being told that I am not supposed to use the shift functionality?

I am the second owner of this SUV, and had I been the original owner this would have been covered by the warranty. I was only 700 miles over the warranty provided by the Authorized Jeep dealer I bought it from -- and their comment to me was? Why are you calling me? Thanks for the great service!
