I'VE BEEN BATTLING BAD SHIFTING PROBLEMS AND SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. AFTER REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION, LOTS OF DIAGNOSTIC FEES, AND NOW A PCM MODULE. I'VE LEARNED AFTER 8 MONTHS, THAT CHRYSLER CAN'T SEEM TO SOLVE THE PCM PROBLEM AND LEFT THE AFTERMARKET TO RESOLVE IT. I LUCKILY FOUND A COMPANY WHO CAN RESOLVE IT. TRIBAL KNOWLEDGE IS THAT CHRYSLER COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT AND SOME PARTS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!

THE PCM USED WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS HAS A SERIOUS AND VERY COMMON FAILURE. CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN SINCE 2006 AND HAS MADE NO EFFORT TO DATE TO RECTIFY THE ISSUE. THE TCM SIDE (INTERNAL WITH THE PCM) HAS A PROBLEM THAT CAUSES HARSH SHIFTING ISSUES. THE ONLY KNOWN SUCCESSFUL REPAIR IS TO REPLACE THE PCM. THIS HAS CAUSED THEM TO BE UNAVAILABLE AND WHEN THEY ARE, THEY ARE 3 TO 5 TIMES MORE EXPENSIVE THAN OTHER YEARS. ALSO, THESE REMANUFACTURED PCM'S ARE NOT RELIABLY REPAIRED, IT IS USUAL THAT SEVERAL DIFFERENT PCM'S BE INSTALLED BEFORE A RELIABLE ONE IS FOUND. I KNOW OF A 2006 JEEP TJL THAT HAD SIX MOPAR REMANUFACTURED COMPUTERS INSTALLED IN 90 DAYS, ALL BY THE SAME DEALERSHIP, BEFORE ONE THAT ACTUALLY WORKED WAS FOUND. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF POSTS ON EVERY ONLINE FORUMS THAT JEEPERS USE THAT DISCUSS THE PROBLEM IN GREAT DETAIL. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH WILL NET YOU ALL YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT THE 2006 WRANGLER AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION PCM FAILURES.

I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 45 MPH ON OPEN ROAD WHEN THE VEHICLE SHOOK SO BAD I PULLED OFF THE ROAD, BECAUSE I HAD TROUBLE HANGING ON TO THE WHEEL. I LOOKED THIS UP AND IT WAS CALLED A DEATH WOBBLE. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED IN 2013 AFTER TRADING IN A 1999 WRANGLER THAT I NEVER HAD SUCH A PROBLEM WITH. I HAVE REPLACED THE STABILIZER BAR AND STABILIZER LINK BUSHINGS, TRACK BAR AND BUSHINGS AND STILL GET A WOBBLE BUT NOT AS BAD. THERE IS CERTAINLY SOMETHING WRONG BUT NO ONE IS ADMITTING IT. WHY DOES IT TAKE SOMEONE GETTING SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED TO GET THE PROBLEM RECOGNIZED AND FIXED.
