1. Contribute 5500 to your Roth in Jan 2018
2. Keep paying on the car, but not accelerated payments.
3. Save the extra cash.
4. Once job uncertainty becomes certain (hopefully good; not bad), readjust your plan.
Extra cash put towards the mortgage will actually give you more bang for your buck than paying extra to the car loan - you just won't feel instant satisfaction. And at 1500 extra per month, you are not experiencing a cash flow concern to really need to have the car paid off (and low 2% interest helps!).
Good job!
