I OWN A 2000 JEEP WRANGLER WHICH I BOUGHT NEW. RECENTLY I BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD POP OUT WHILE DRIVING. SOON AFTER I BEGAN TO HAVE BRAKE ISSUES AND HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT. HE SAID HE HAD NEVER SEEN A JEEP RUSTED OUT SO BAD WITH SO FEW MILES ON IT AND SAID IT WAS A HAZARD TO DRIVE. HE SAID THE BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED THROUGH AS WELL AS THE SUPPORT FOR THE TRANSMISSION . HE SAID THE FRAME WAS IN TERRIBLE SHAPE AND SAID I WAS LUCKY THE THING DIDN'T FALL APART WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 85,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, I WAS MOVING THE SHIFTER TO REVERSE AND HEARD A CLUNK SOUND. IT WAS NOT A SMOOTH SHIFT. IMMEDIATELY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I BACKED THE VEHICLE OUT OF SPACE AND MOVE THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTER TO DRIVE AND HEARD ANOTHER CLUNKING NOISE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. AS I TRIED TO PICK UP SPEED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT AND THE RPM'S WENT HIGHER AND HIGHER. WE DROVE THE CAR UP TO 40 MPH AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT. SO WE DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR HOME AND NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE AS THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY OR NOT AT ALL. *TR
