Did the mechanic give you a estimate on what it might cost? I'm honestly nervous to drive it if I'm crossing traffic and it pops out. It definetly takes more force to put it into first compared to other manuals ive drove.
I have a 2008 Jeep Wrangler JK manual. Sometimes it will pop out of first gear usually after the first 5-10 minutes of turning it on. All other gears work fine. any suggestions on how to fix it
