fans going nuts...then my transmission died.
Hi guys.
My 2015 diesel Laredo was in for service at about the time that recall came out, so it was applied. The fans have been going nuts ever since, but I figured a fan coming on couldn't cause any harm.
Then two weeks ago, the transmission started playing up. shifting gear was a bit clunky, and it seemed to be holding gears longer, and occasionally slipping. Then it became obvious there was something seriously wrong, so I called Jeep assist. The malfunction light was lit on the dash. they took it for a drive and got stuck out of gear, the middle of the road about 200m from my house. Oil dumped on the road. Eventually they towed it to the local dealer. The dealer still has it. They have had it for 10 days...each time I speak to them they say they had to order more parts from interstate. I thought I would get a temporary replacement vehicle, as it is a warranty issue, but no.
It does seem suspicious that all these transmission issues happened just after the transmission 'fix' was applied....but they tell me it isn't related.
....yesterday they told me it will be ready today.......still hoping it will be.
Mike
