1 Vehicle Shudder problem

Failure Date: 03/24/2021

My car began shuddering, the deal of driving a boat almost, feeling like the transmission is in a lower gear but not as rough. The dealer preformed recall repair fsa 14m02tsb 16-0129 today in denton. I drove home the 35 mi. And, although improved still felt the same. My boyfriend researched other bulletins and recalls. Then jacked the car up and saw a leak relating to 14m01tsb. I called but was told since I have 127798 mi and it has been more than 10 hrs, this no longer applies. There was no warning or coded related to these issues and I feel that these 2 issues are related to each other and 1401tsb should be extended to accommodate customers who have this issue but weren't aware as diagnostics do not show there is a problem and the leak is not severe enough to notice driveway spots. The only code of my car is an oxygen sensor code that showed up after the dealer repair today. I have seen many people who has this exact same issue therefore it is an ongoing problem that Jeep manufacturers are fully aware of. I request that the previous 14m01 be extended to cover all parts, repairs and labor related to this issues for these vehicle owners. I am just outside the coverage of this bulletin and had my boyfriend not jacked up the vehicle and checked himself after researching the bulletins, we would still be unaware of the actual problem. I, and other owners need the problems address in bulletin 14m01 remedied by warranty extension or other satisfactory means to cover a problem that the manufacturer is fully aware of.
