I pulled into my driveway and put the car in park. When stepping out of my car, it started rolling backwards, the door was open so it knocked me to the ground and i rolled to get out of the path of the wheel, only getting missed by seconds. I had pretty severe bruising but i did not see a doctor. I assume the car went into reverse as it rolled backwards, but it was a slight incline so it may have been neutral. I was…

When accelerating, the engine always hesitates for several seconds, then surges forward. This condition creates a safety issue during passing, merging into oncoming traffic, evasive maneuvers, etc. This problem has existed since new, and has not improved. Bergey chrysler, jeep service dept. Has informed me that the hesitation while accelerating "operates as designed", and cannot be repaired. *tr

When i saw the news story on 3/21/16 about the gear shifter, in my 2014 jeep grand cherokee, it validated what i had been experiencing. I had disliked the design since the first day i owned the car. When i shifted, i was always in the wrong gear. A fellow jeep owner suggested, i shift as hard as i could into park and the same for drive. It worked most of the time. I have often started to exit the car only to find it…
