Your transmission is in "limp home" mode, the problem is one of the sensors on your transmission. you need to have an obdII scanner connected to read the codes stored in your vehicles computer. this will tell you which sensor has failed

Testimonial: "Thanks, will get that checked out"

2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo won't shift out of 1st gear.

Question edited for spelling of the model names.
Question moved to model category.

Are you in Limp Mode? Is the Check Engine Light on?

Some ideas here including pulling fuses. You probably need an auto electrician though.

My 2002 jeep grand cherokee won`t change out of first gear I can only drive under 25 mph?

check fuses.
then scan it.
the scan tool will in fact tell you what the trans is stuck
The PCM shifts the gears, so if it cant, it complains big time.
those are called DTC errors.
all shops in town can scan, or you can buy one and DIY.
on all modern cars. 96+

at 25mph 2nd should happen.
if not, the trans will log, DTC errors. for it.
but it's best to scan and see all errors.
there are are other issues, limphome on engine and transmission.
but the DTC errors show that too.

2002 jeep grand cherokee wont reverse when in gear. hear it get into gear but wont move...

first check fluid is full by starting the engine have it blocked put in in nutral( to fill the bell houseing ) then check fluid level, more than likely you need to add fluid exspecally if your checking it in park with engine on or off park gives you a false reading on the dip stick

2004 jeep grand cherokee engine management light on gear box won;t change up or down . had this problem a few times; just used to stop the car turn engine off @ back on car would drive ok, after a mile...

I had a similar issue on a grand cherokee '98 4.0L, and it was because the gearbox was overheating due to old oil and the fact that is was low on oil. Change gearbox oil and the filter inside the gearbox checked the two band tension and adjusted them and all was ok. the oil should be red or a dark pink. It would point more to this being the poblem if when it does change gear, the gear changes seam slow or slugish or change happens at higher engine revs. You may be able to get a fault code from ecu, by turning ign. to acc then on then off then on then off then on then off then off hen on again (code is displayed instead of odomitor reading as PXXXX or POXXXX). This could point you i one or more directions if oil seem to be correct.

This vehicle is going into "safe mode" get it to a parts store like Orilley's or Pep Boys, they will download the code for free and give you better direction.
