No/ lack of acceleration when I come off the break while in drive/ reverse.

Hi,

I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler unlimited 4x4 3.6l V6 52,000 miles. I noticed that whenever I’m at a stop sign or stop light and I take my foot off the brake it doesn’t roll forward like every other car I’ve driven does. It feels like the parking break is engaged and feels just heavy like it’s being restricted. It runs fine, and I just replaced calipers and pads all around. The problem is still there. The only other issue is that when I am accelerating, it will take a long time to shift from what I imagine is 3rd/4th or 4th/5th till I come off the gas a little. Could these problems be related? Any insight would be great! I plan on changing the differential fluid to see if that will help too.

Well first thing you want to do was driving around and then jack it up and see if the brakes are sticking. If they are not sticking, a lot of these modern vehicles have electronically controlled transmission that will act slightly different and those jeeps have pretty weak transmission switch. You'll often start to break down. If you getting weird shifts, I'd blame it more on a transmission than anything else
