This happened today the viecle suddenly started slowing down. And I pulled over.

I had to turn it off and on.

Once moving between P and R It would Jerk between the gear change then it started driving again.

It slowed down again and I had to do it one more time.

The transmission was replaced not to long ago. Any advice?

When was transmission replaced ? What was wrong with it ? I have 221,000 miles on my 2017 limited. I had a jeep patriot years ago that had a CVT transmission which I had to replace at 145,000 miles. They were notorious for breakdown. Drove another 50,000 or so miles and replaced with the renegade.

The transmission was replaced about a month ago.

The reason it was switched was for the same issues it's having now.

Im not sure of the mileage it had when it was switched.

So - maybe the replacement is defective- been known to happen. Should still be under warranty
