Brakes - rotors warp about every 9 to 12,000 miles. The rotors have been turned 3 times and are now in need again. Transmission - the overdrive slips as it engages. Tachometer shows the engine speed increasing as the od engages, than drops as it finally fully engages.

I pulled my jeep out of the garage, while idling, I got out to go behind the jeep to close the garage door, when the transmission jumped out of park into reverse. I was hit and thrown to the back of the garage receiving many bruises and scratches. I then went to the emergency room and was checked out. My insurance agent came the next day and filed a report of the accident . The dealer from where I purchased the jeep was notified of the accident. The damage to the jeep, to the garage and its contents was in excess of $7000.00. In august 2001, I saw on cnn news jeep grand cherokee's were being reported for transmissions slipping out of gear. I wanted to report mine as well. Thank-you ricky and nancy gerrin 8-13-01.

Note: rental car. Parked vehicle after backing up moderately inclined driveway. Set transmission in park. Did not set parking brake nor chock wheels. Vehicle was stable for several minutes (brought one child into house) but then began to roll down hill. Was not slipping on pavement; was not driving engine (as with standard shift.) could not stop vehicle by holding back. Transmission was still in park, not dislodged (confirmed this fact). Pulled parking brake and vehicle stopped (no harm no foul.) but did not expect vehicle with automatic transmission set in park to be mobile at all. Did report this to rental agent when returning vehicle.
