Trailhawk w/ 9 Speed



I bought my TH the day after they got them on the lot back in March. I absolutely love it. However, I am at around 2,000 miles and have started to notice that he likes to stay in a lower gear when going down long hills. This isn't really an issue for me since I can put it in manual mode and go up a gear or two. I could see how it might annoy some people who don't want to mess with shifting. I have also noticed that when at slow speeds (like in parking lots, etc), it seems to always be in a lower gear than needed and the engine's RPM's are at around 2,500 which seems high for traveling at <5 MPH. Bottom line, I still absolutely love the vehicle and neither of these problems overly concern me. If they want to flash my transmission, I'll just have the wife cover her eyes. Plus, I knew full well there might be issues with a brand new model. It's a common occurrence with any auto maker. For those of you who want a 'problem free' experience, don't worry. We'll work out these bugs for you!
