While driving our 2014 Jeep Cherokee latitude (3. 2l) the service shifter light came on and all red lights appeared on the shifter console. It does not stay on after turning off engine, and has only come on 3 times over 2 months. It does not appear to effect the operating of the car. The dealer checked it out and says we need to have the floor shifter assembly replaced, and at a cost of $738. 75. I could not find any recalls on it but I did see a lot of complaints upon searching online. So far it has only come on during highway driving speeds.

While driving and stationary the service shifter light illuminates on the dash and all the lights on the floor shifter illuminate all gear positions. Also, at low speed, when adding power, the transmission has a "bump" as it tries to shift into the next gear. Makes it jerk/clunk into gear.
