'SERVICE SHIFTER' LIGHT HAS COME ON THE DASH SEVERAL TIMES. STARTING AT 26,000 MILES. HAVE TAKEN IT SEVERAL TIME TO CROWN CHRYSLER DOGE JEEP IN CHATTANOOGA TENNESSEE FOR THEM TO TELL ME IT'S ONLY THE BATTERY. THIS BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED AND THIS ISSUE IS STILL OCCURRING. TONIGHT, SEPTEMBER 18, 2020, MY JEEP CHEROKEE NOTIFIED SERVICE SHIFTER THE. SLAMMED THE EBRAKE ON WHILE GOING 55. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND THE DEALERSHIP KEEPS STATING NOTHING IS WRONG. I HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH AFTER PUSHING THE 'BUSH TO START' BUTTON 'TO CUT THE CAR OFF,' THE BUTTON STATES THE CAR IS OFF, BUT YET THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING. I NO LONGER WANT THIS 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE DUE TO IT BEING A SAFETY ISSUE.

MY CHEROKEE IS 2018, I BOUGHT IT USED JAN OF 2020. IN SEPT OF 2020 MY STARTER BROKE, I PAID $550 TO GET IT FIXED. THIS MORNING, ABOUT 4 DAYS LATER THE STARTER IS BROKEN AGAIN. MY MECHANIC IS VERY GOOD, AND WARNED ME ABOUT MULTIPLE PEOPLE COMING IN WITH THIS ISSUE AND IT BREAKING AGAIN. HE TOLD ME TO GET A NEW CAR WHICH I PLANNED ON DOING BUT IT BROKE BEFORE I GOT THE CHANCE. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND MULTIPLE PEOPLE LEFT REVIEWS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.
