[Resolved]Jeep Renegades Being Held Over 9-Speed Issue (2015)

Put 900 miles on my Trail Hawk since I picked it up 2 weeks ago. Mostly highway driving. Acceleration is better than I expected. Have not experienced any hard shifts with the transmission. When using it in the manual shift mode, and shifting in the power band, it does "hard shift", but this is normal for sport shifting. Observations thusfar is driving in normal drive mode at low speeds where I find the transmission seems to want to keep itself in a higher gear which produces a less than expected response when I try to accelerate. I now expect this so a quick pedal press forces a downshift to a lower gear. Manual shifting gets me 6 of the 9 gears to play with.
