2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee , purchased on 02/19/2005 used vehicle with a 24,000 miles or less warranty. Purchase price was $20,342. 00, mileage on vehicle was: 17268 at time of purchase. Problem: on 4/18/2007 I had to replace the transmission on this vehicle which cost me $3,018. 99. Can I be reimbursed for this mishap? as a consumer I do not believe a vehicle that is 2 1/2 years old should have transmission problems such as the one I incurred with this vehicle. My present mileage 57959
thank you for your assistance in this matter.

With cruise control on and going up a hill there is hesitation, and then vehicle slams into a lower gear. Slam is so bad that passengers are startled. Took to dealer, and they said they don't know what to do about this problem. Consumer was told by dealership that this is normal.

Consumer stated there was no indication of transmission fluid showing on the dipstick, the vehicle would downshift from drive to a lower gear, after 4 visits to the dealer it was discovered that the transmission vent tube was missing, which the factory failed to install.
This vehicle has many/many inherent problems, it has an enging problem that causes the engine to stop running. We are told that they dont know what the problem is but would like to put CO pilot in the car to log a code when the problem occurs, however we have been told that they have had this problem on other cars and have not been able to have the CO pilot log in any error codes. So they bought the car back from the owners. It would take quite some time for us to list all of the inherent problems that all these new Jeeps have 1999 0r 2000 models. If you could go to the site on the net and type in 4x44u you will be astounded at all the frustrated folks nation wide. The car also has many drivetrain problems to many to list, it is overwhelming. Please help us, we worked hard for that $38. 000 dollars we gave to Chrysler and they are just putting it back on us, the customer's. Thank you very much. Ken and barb davis.

Our 1999 Grand Cherokee has been experiencing a grinding or thumping sound when turning left. This has just started happening in the past 2 months and doesn't happen when turning right. A loud roar on an initial start up has been happening since the vehicle was new. The clutch fan was replaced once but that didn't help. When this loud roar occurs, the vehicle seems like it is running in low gear. After a few blocks the sound goes away.
Consumer states of having problems with the transmission. Dealer was contacted. Mr.

The transmission functions impropery, at low speeds the transmission can unexpectedly down shift causing the vehicle to slow at a rapid rate.
