2016 JEEP CHEROKEE with 50000.0 miles

My service transmission warning and check engine light keep coming on with code P2803. Spoke with the mechanic and he stated this is an ongoing issue and should have a recall issued for it as it is an ongoing issue with Jeep Cherokees. This has happened several times.

2008 FORD ESCAPE HYBRID with 100300. miles

P2803 & P2800 sensors..Both sensors are defective and the cost to repair is far above fair pricing. Hydraulic control approx cost to repair 4100.00 dollars. This is ununfair repair costs. This vehicle has been maintained with above average care and has not been misused. Checking web site have found that this is not an uncommon problem with this model. Public should be warned about this defect in this model and a possible recall should me made.
