07 Stock X with 13,000 miles and no problem.
However when I start her up I put her in drive and wait about 15 to 30 seconds. The shifts are much smoother than if I were to start her up and take off. I get a little bump when going into 2nd gear the first time.

I don't remember the milage but mine got stuck in second gear also. I ended up pulling over and completely shutting off the jeep and removed the key, put it back in and started it and it was fine. I called the dealer and took it in. No codes showed up but they reprogrammed it anyway. It was fine for awhile and we went out of town and Damed if it didn't happen again. It took several times shutting it off completely before it was ok. I again called the dealer and took it in. On the way to the dealer it started slipping really bad to where i drove it 10 miles per hr to get there. They did the reprogram again and said there was a code showing this time. So far it's been fine with 16,000 miles. I also had problems when i left the keys in it sitting in the garage it would be locked when we went to go. That happpened several times. Dealer said, Hey try the other key once and it's been fine since!! Figure that one out. I also had the brake problem that they recalled it for. Mine is an 07. Good luck to everyone with theres.
