| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The transmission on our jeep liberty went about a month and half ago. we brought it to the jeep dealership in lincoln, rhode island and were told it was covered under the 7 year/70,000 mile warranty; however, they also told us we would have to wait for a new transmission, but a rebuilt one would be faster and just as good. they had our vehicle for about a week. we tried to be patient even though it was difficult to not have the use of our vehicle for this amount of time. we got the jeep back and now the transmission has gone again. the vehicle was bucking and smelled like it was on fire. it is my opinion that if he had continued to drive it that day, it would have caught on fire. we called the same dealership, but they were not able to take it right away. when we did drop it off, it sat there before they could look at it. they said it was a faulty part in the transmission and again that we would have to wait three weeks for a new transmission, but the part could be ordered and sent by federal express. we cannot be without this vehicle again for three weeks so we chose the rebuilt transmission. i called today, and they haven't gotten the part and haven't called me back with where it is. i called jeep customer service and they said maybe they could offer "goodwill assistance" with a loaner vehicle, but then said no because it is not covered in our warranty and we are over in mileage, even though our jeep is not 7 years old and does not have 70,000 miles on it. *jb |
