  1. Advice With Warranty - Manual 2018 JL 2nd gear disengaging

    Hell no. I'd fight. I had the same prob with my 2018 Wrangler. My issue seemed to be a 2nd gear slipping out issue, but my description evolved to "it only happens when I am decelerating NOT accelerating." Once I phrased it like that the "30 yr experienced Jeep technician" was able to reproduce...
  2. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    My Jeep is fixed! The gear shifting issue was allegedly due to the crossover cables being installed incorrectly. They adjusted and now it's just as it was pre-service. The news transmission fixed the 2nd gear popping out. To answer the Qs: 2nd gear was almost aligned with Reverse. The...
  3. 2018 Wrangler - 1st gear goes BACKWARDS! (see video)

    SEE VIDEO::::: I'm not a mechanic, so I'm not really sure how to describe what happened... The transmission was replaced due to 2nd gear popping out by itself (violently) when decelerating. (Never while upshifting.) I picked up the car, put it in 1st gear, eased off the clutch... and it...
  4. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    I'm not a mechanic, so I'm not really sure how to describe what happened... Transmission was replaced (it took 1 week). I picked up the car, put it in 1st gear, eased off the clutch... and it went backwards!! The red safety that one must squeeze to get into R was not working. You could slide...
  5. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    I have an update. After a lot of fighting and complaining, Jeep was able to reproduce the problem. It took 2 weeks to schedule time, but they've now had my Jeep for 4 days to dive into it. After allegedly have several discussions with Jeep Corp, they have authorized an entire transmission...
  6. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    Not yet. I'm still waiting for the dealer to call me back and schedule the time to dig into my transmission. Slooooow.
  7. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    I'm glad they acknowledged that an issue exists. I got the "our mechanic has a 30 yr history of working on Jeeps and he says it's fine" speech too. I told him that if a 30 yr pro couldn't reproduce this issue then that 30 yr pro needs to try harder. Ironically, it wasn't the pro who figured it...
  8. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    They stated that the mechanic and 2 separate advisors all took the Jeep on extensive test drives and couldn't find anything wrong w/ it. Today I said I would come back and go with them. When I arrived, they said they took it out again and DID experience the problem. He stated that after he...
  9. JL Wrangler Manual Transmission - 2nd Gear Disengagement (Popping Out of Gear)

    Yes! Add me to the list! I'm having this issue on a 2018 Wrangler Sport w/ 16,000 miles. It pops out of 2nd gear usually while downshifting and/or traveling downhill. The Jeep dealer is telling me they "cannot reproduce the problem" which is nuts. The problem started fairly intermittently a...
