NHTSA complaint #10183041, filed 2007-02, 45,000 miles

“I have a 2000 grand cherokee. With 4.0l, auto trans., 4x4 select trac. It shifts hard taking off from a start. Seems like it double shifts while increasing speed, goes from 2nd gear to hiigh gear then back to 2nd gear and then back again all within a few seconds. I took it to a transmission shop where they explained to me about the possibility of an o-ring seal that was to small and to replace it would require the transmission to be removed from the vehicle. Very expensive. I haven't had the repair completed yet. …”
