My 2014 2. 4l Jeep Cherokee is shifting out of gear when making a turn and looses power. When it shifts out of gear (or into neutral) the gear shift light will come on. The gear shiftier will not have moved and still be in drive! engine has to be shut off and then I have to try about three time to get it to start again, and it will not start up like normal. It starts up like it is trying to get the engine motivated into movement. When I am able to restart the Jeep the gear shift light will no longer be on. It is the second time to happen in a week.

The failure recurred numerous times. The contact also stated that while entering a driveway or while in reverse and also while driving the vehicle would start to shake and jerk violently. The contact also mentioned that the steering wheel locked up and pulled to the left while her daughter was driving. The instrument panel indicated shift to park and shift to desire gears and also indicated service transmission and also service brakes. The contact powered off the vehicle and restarted the vehicle, shifted out of neutral then into park before selecting drive. The vehicle drove normal to half a block before the failure recurred. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to spirit automotive Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram (4611 avenue q, lubbock, TX 79412), but was not diagnosed. The mechanic updated the transmission control software under NHTSA campaign number: 19v447000 (power train). After leaving the dealer, the vehicle started to shake and before reaching her residence the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was restarted, coasted into her driveway and stalled. The contact called an independent mechanic and was advised to contact the manufacturer. The manufacturer was contacted and informed the contact to take the vehicle back to the dealer for them to update the software again. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer but was not diagnosed nor repaired. The technician called the contact and informed her the vehicle was ready for pick up however, the failure recurred. The contact schedule an appointment for a diagnostic test which was still pending. The failure mileage was approximately 97,700.

The "service shifter" alarm comes on while I am driving and all the lights on the gear shift light up res. P rdn, all of it. The car still runs. This has happened 8 times now. I pull over and put the car in park, turn it off and turn it back on and it is all okay. The dealer said it just needs an update. Did that the first time it happened but is happening again and again.

Service shifter flashes across dash. All of the gear lights remain lit. Car jerks hard into gear. Car will only move in reverse. I have had several transmission related issues repaired by the Jeep dealership since I purchased the vehicle in June 2017. 6 months after purchase I started having transmission related issues. On 10/25/19, car would no longer shift into drive. I am livid about the situation. While still paying a car note, I'm told I need to pay 5600 for a new transmission.

About a month ago I noticed that when I started my vehicle all the lights lit up red on my gear display on the counsel. I took my vehicle in for an oil change and was told there was a recall that needed performed that had to deal with the computer update for the shifter. The recall was performed on sept. 20. Since this time my dashboard menu has locked itself on � service shifter� in addition to all gears lighting up red, 3 times. Once while I was driving down the interstate at 75 miles an hour. Forcing me to pull over turn off the ignition and restart the vehicle to free my dash so I can even see my speedometer. The other two times occurred when starting my vehicle and putting it in reverse.

Beginning at about 19000 miles the gear shift lights would all come on at random times while driving. Stopping the Jeep and switching it off would make the lights go off. At about 90000 miles in addition to the lights coming on the shifter, the dash would light up with "service shifter" message. Once again stopping and turning off the vehicle and restarting as many as 5 times would make the message and lights go off. The vehicle is serviced regularly at the Jeep delearship and was checked several times with no errors showing on computer. After going on line to research this problem, I found numerous websites with people having the same problem and stating that there should be a recall due to the large number of vehicles involved. About 2 months ago the same message and lights came on and it took over 10 minutes of trying to start before I could get the message off and able to put the Jeep into gear to continue on my way home (was over 2 hours from home on this trip). The Jeep dealership ordered parts that they said should fix it (I was originally told that it was not problem as long as it was going off). I spent over $500. 00 getting this fixed. Since this is a recurrent problem with so many people, I believe that there should be a recall to fix the problem. This is also a danger to drivers leaving them stranded beside the road because of this defect. From the on line forums this is a problem with all models and year makes of Jeeps. My Jeep started this problem before the warranty was up (at 19000 miles). However since it was not repaired (and I hope it is) until after the warranty had expired, I had to pay over $500. 00 for what I believe should have been a recall. It took over a month for parts to come to dealership for repair.

I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee with 71k miles. For more than 6 months I have noticed that the car takes a lot of effort to speed, and when it does the rpm is so high and it feels that the engine is going to burn out. It is like the gears are stucked. I took it to the dealer and they said that everything was good, except my engine mounts. I changed that; however, the problems continues. 5 days ago I had the service shifter message come up on my screen. It highlighted all my gears lights red and the screen was locked to service shifter. They said that everything was fine, but obviously the car have some issues with the transmission.

Car would not go in gear at stop light. Shuddering and lurched. It felt like we'd been hit. All kinds of lights start flashing (engine transmission key foblicense plate light out, etc) on the dash. Couldn't get to shut off, change gear or any commands. Finally able to get to park to shut off. Restarted and started moving and seemed ok. At the next stoplight it did the same thing. Wouldn't engage in gear then the shudder finally got going and then lost power and slowly stalled. Managed to get to a parking lot and stalled again sitting in idle. After letting sit for 30 minutes or so it started and ran ok. It's like electronic brain went crazy for a bit. We've had issues with the transmission shifting hard or hesitation at lower gears off and on sine we've had it. You have to change driving style and make sure you don't need to make a quick move because you don't know how it will respond. Every time we take it in we're told they did an update to the software and shouldn't have any other issues. At this point I'm scared to drive it!.

While stop at a light the Jeep stalled out with check engine light,parking gear light, and road hazard light came on. Then when I put it in park and back in gear it jerked badly as if the engine came out and bunny hop as it took off like some one learning to drive a standard. Some times while driving it roughly shifts into 2nd. And it stalled once on a major highway which is dangerous.

Tl the contact owns a 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that the transmission gears slipped without warning when the vehicle was started. While the vehicle was idling at a stop, a warning indicator near the gear box indicated that the gear was shifted when it really was not. In addition, the vehicle randomly stalled several times intermittently. The contact was uncertain if the failure was related to NHTSA campaign number: 16v529000 (power train). The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.

The vehicle was taken to an unknown dealer where it was diagnosed that the tied wire harness was hanging from the vehicle. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred several times. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to get a rental vehicle. The approximate failure mileage was 74,000. The VIN was not available.

Have experienced horrible shifting problems since I drove the 2014 Jeep Cherokee trailhawk off the lot. Jerks forward from stop and at different gear changes. Believe this will cause additional damage to already poor performing transmission. Hesitates gear change some times when on highway that could be dangerous. Two days ago started vehicle and placed in reverse. Jeep slammed into gear and engine light came on. Light saying to put vehicle back on park came on. I did this and then put the vehicle back into drive. Pressed gas and vehicle went backwards. Had to be towed to the dealer. Dealer is still evaluating vehicle and has done a software update. I asked about the jerky shifting and they are saying it is normal for the vehicle. They are being slammed with customer complaints about transmission problems according to the service department rep. Calling an improperly performing transmission normal because its happening to most of these vehicles is not acceptable. This is an expensive vehicle and never should have been sold under these conditions. Others should know what they are getting into by purchasing one of these and Jeep needs to rectify this situation immediately.

Very harsh gear engagement while vehicle is in motion. Significant lag before downshift, followed by a harsh gear engagement and the loss of control when vehicle finally accelerates at a high rate. Whole car shakes violently with 1-2 and 2-3 shift. Transmission holds gear while on slight inclines with moderate throttle.

2 issues. (1)) transmission doesn't shift properly. Coming from a higher speed and break ie slowing down and then accelerating there is a delay. The Jeep doesn't know what gear to be in. I have been almost rear ended, honked at, swerved around because the Jeep won't speed up properly. (2) gear shifter lights don't function properly. The gear shifter was already replaced once under factory warranty and the same issue has happened again.

Service shifter warning came on on all gear indicators lit up.
