We have a 2001 Grand Cherokee Laredo. Just last week, something has changed with the trans and stopping/starting. It appears that from a dead stop, that the trans does not start in 1st, but rather 2nd - I think. Not all the time, but sometimes. Things are just wrong at low end, as coming to the stop, or even sitting at the stop & starting... It does not have the torque off the line, but rather slow & smooth, like starting in 2nd with a manual trans.... Any ideas on what could be wrong, broke, whatever ??
Also - should I take it to the dealer, or a third party shop...
