2002 grand Jeep cherokee -at 6:40 a. M. Backed into parking spot where I work; pulled forward and straightened up backed into spot; Jeep jumped curb hit building; put Jeep in drive; Jeep catapulted forward at high rate of speed. I went through an iron fence into a long term parking lot; stopped hitting another Jeep head on and a concrete base; iron fence damage to two additional cars parked. No one else was involved; only injuries were to myself when air bags deployed. Ems and police arrived and policeman turned off Jeep which was still accelerating after impact. Jeep was totaled and all damages are being covered by our state farm insurance.

I had the vehicle in park, got out, went behind the vehicle, it started moving backwards, knocking me over, then went across the road hitting another vehicle resting against it.

Vehicle stopped while while pulling into the driveway engine remained running, but the vehicle would not move. Vehicle was towed to the dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the problem.

May 11, 2004 dear sir or madam: I am writing this letter with regards to my Grand Cherokee laredo 2002, VIN #1j4gw48sx2c165706 and file #12263562. In December of 2003, I pulled into a Chrysler service center to have my truck serviced in NJ, because it was driving improperly, and not getting up to its normal speed properly. I did not know what the problem was until a Chrysler Jeep dealer identified the truck as having transmission problems. At the time the truck only had 35,000 miles on it. Since I was unable get any assistance with my vehicle from Chrysler, I was forced to call aaa, a reliable service and provider to tow my truck. When the aaa tow man arrived he informed me that I had a problem with my shift gear/transmission. I immediately responded with great skepticism, as Chryslers service representatives assured me that I no longer should experience any problems with my transmission. The aaa representative whom was sent to tow my truck managed to get my truck started and I was on my way once more. The next day I returned to the dealership and told them of the recent problems I was experiencing and immediately they checked the truck in. When the truck was being checked I notified the mechanic that the truck would only start in neutral. I also brought it to their attention; a new problem that the truck was experiencing. The truck rolled backwards and forwards while in the parking gear. . At this point, as a valued consumer, I would like to return this truck with no penalties, be reimbursed for the car rental and possibly continue a lease on another vehicle other than a cherokee. I am disappointed and feel my life and safety is being jeopardized if I am to continue to drive this vehicle. Please consider this letter as a formal affirmation of cognizance! sincerely, adrian jenkins.

My wife & I were driving on I-95 south when my Jeep Grand Cherokee's check engine light came on but before we could do anything it shifted from drive to 2nd gear and went from 60mph to around 25mph while we were still in the 3rd inside lane of a 3 lane hwy so we proceded to pull off the hwy and check out the truck and also let it sit for awhile and in doing so the lite went off so we proceded to get back on and go straight home but as we tried to get on the hwy it happened again but this time we went from drive to 1st gear and we almost got rearended by an 18 wheeler but he moved over at the last second, where we got on there was no break down lane so we had to go for about a mile and in the process we started to loose the brakes do to problems ariseing from the abs and also the engine was acting funny it started to shut off then it would speed up and it did it 3 or 4 times so when we got off we had the Jeep flatbeded to "greenwich Jeep" in greenwich,CT. Soon as it's fixed I'm getting rid of it but I did want to note the problem with you!.
