2017 Jeep Wrangler Power Train

THE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS A "REVERSE SYNCHRONIZER " THAT IS FAULTY. CHRYSLER JEEP HAS THE PARTS ON BACKORDER FOR MORE THAN 6 MONTHS AND THEY CAN NOT HONOR THEIR FACTORY WARRANTY. I'M BEING TOLD TO KEEP DRIVING MY BRAND NEW JEEP THAT GRINDS GOING INTO AND POPS OUT OF REVERSE WHILE DRIVING. THEY ARE DOWN PLAYING THIS PROBLEM IN AN ATTEMPT TO DECEIVE CUSTOMERS.

THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AT 2262 MILES ON 2/7/17. AT 7056 MILES I RETURNED THE JEEP TO THE DEALER ON 12/27/18 BECAUSE OF A AUDIBLE KNOCKING SOUND FROM THE TRANSMISSION WHEN COLD.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ON 2017 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED FAILED AFTER 4000 MILES. DEALERSHIP/FCA REPLACED THROTTLE BODY, ENTIRE TRANSMISSION, TORQ CONVERTER, AS WELL AS TRANSCOOLER SYSTEM. NO EXPLAINATION AS TO FAILURE. VEHICLE PRIOR TO LOSS BEING USED FOR DAILY COMMUTE. OUTSIDE OF SIMPLY REPLACING MAJOR PARTS ON BRAND NEW VEHICLE THERE HAS BEEN LITTLE IF ANY SUPPORT ON DEALERSHIP/FCA SIDE.

NEW VEHICLE WITH SYMPTOMS OF EXCESSIVE/SEVERE SHAKING OF SHIFTER WHEN TRAVELING OVER A ROUGH ROAD. THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TRANSMISSION MOUNT WAS NOT FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY ALLOWING EXCESSIVE MOVEMENT OF DRIVE TRAIN.

JEEP WRANGLER'S MANUAL TRANSMISSION DOES NOT HAVE A REVERSE LOCKOUT AND POP'S OUT OF REVERSE ROUTINELY WHEN POWER IS APPLIED OR YOU PUMP THE CLUTCH AFTER ALREADY SUCCESSFULLY ENTERING REVERSE. THE VEHICLE OPERATOR MUST MANUALLY HOLD THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER IN THE REVERSE POSITION TO MAINTAIN REVERSE. THIS HAS MANIFESTED AT AROUND THE 500 MILE MARK AND PROGRESSIVELY WORSENED MY CURRENT ODOMETER READING IS 1656. ADDITIONALLY THE LACK OF A REVERSE LOCKOUT OR SPECIAL PROCEDURE TO ENTER REVERSE IS MISSING MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR THE OPERATOR TO MISTAKENLY GRIND THE REVERSE GEARS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN TRANSITIONING FROM 5TH TO 6TH GEAR.
