Grand Cherokee 2001 - lift gate + trans + chk engine
 

well.... looks like our 2001 Grand Cherokee is bleeding money :)

Just had the electric cooling fan replaced for $$$$
and now, 3 other things have broken today -

1 - auto trans will not "start" in 1st gear...
coming to a complete stop, it slightly lurches into 2nd vs 1st

2 - check engine light just came on - maybe related to trans ?

3 - and the rear lift gate & window release will not work ?
It sounded like the relay was buzzing when the unlock was toggled,
but maybe it's a fuse ? - will check when son gets home.

SO - really looking forward to Monday :(
