1. Rear differential failed before 100,000 miles. I was driving and I heard something metal fall in the back of the car. I pressed gas but was not able to move. After inspection and call for help, the part that fell on the ground was the rear differential. How can it just fall out while driving? I had to get it towed and repaired by a mobile mechanic. 2. The sunroof switch is faulty. Several times it has gotten stuck and won’t close. If it starts to rain, I have to pull over on the highway, cut the car off and on a few times and press the button until it closes. The sunroof will move forward like it’s going to close but doesn’t; it moves back and forth like it’s stuck on something. 3. The shifter is incredibly rough and hard. It sounds like something falling out of the car every time I shift from park to reverse and back to park. Very loud and the entire car jerks when shifting. There was a previous recall but the problem still persists. I’m afraid something else will fall out while driving.
The drive shaft broke and had to be replaced. This resulted in lack of stability prior to the break and mobility was comprimised after it broke. The car was repaired at Wayne's Precision and Transmission auto repair in Bumpass, Virginia on November 4th, 2022. The state of Virginia requires annual car inspections which we will have due next June. Symptoms prior to replacement of the drive shaft included clunking/knocking noises from underneath the car when the car was in motion. Modest noises first occured in August, three months prior to replacement, and proressively got worse until replacement was necessary.

5-26-21 my car was brought into chrysler jeep dodge east hanover new jersey picked up the car on 07-16-21/a brand new transmission was installed. -now as january 2022-the brand new transmission that was installed is again gone bad- like the old one was in before new one installed..... It is surging with a heriffic bump when you approach to slow down at aintersection, and can be felt on acceleration-not that I am blaming dealership but there is a problem with the transmissions that are accerted to fit vehicles that are 8 speed automatic transmissions -845re type.inclosing invoice #chcs243489...
Electronic stability control/ ABS light/ brake light.. While driving the ESC and ABS popped on together, after cranking back up the vehicles brake light appeared, something is stopping the vehicle from driving normal. Upon stopping at red lights the car jerks, also it skids when making left and right hand turns. The car revs when accelerating but the rpms are reduced as if in limp mode. The car is very dangerous to drive especially two lane highways it gravitated towards the ditch this time I just could turn the wheel, because sometimes the wheel is very hard to turn.
Car was making terrible noise as it ran stationed are running so after having it looked at I was told it's all of my pulleies, this car has less than 45000 miles on it
Vehicle intermittently gets stuck in gear and gear shift lights stay on
When accelerating it will sometimes throw itself into neutral. It also stays in a gear for a long period of time before shifting. It happens at random times while driving.
Shifter at times will not engage the gear it is put into, acts like it is in nuteral. Can turn ignition off and restart, put into gear several more times before the gear will engage. Can be dangerous, depending where you are at. May take about 5 minutes to get gear to engage. Happened when starting car and backing up or going forward, backing up more often.
