Description of the problem | On 5/23/19 and 5/27/19 vehicle loses power while driving, engine shuts down, steering locks and the dash lights up with a message that says put vehicle and "park" and then select desired gear. I have small children. This has happened twice in the last month. I keep my vehicle up to date on maintenance/service. I read over 100 people's exact same complaints on line. It doesn't make sense that i am paying a car payment, have less than 45,000 miles on my vehicle, and having these kind of safety concerns. Today, my car died with no warning on a busy road, gives me approximately 10 seconds to pull to safety before there is no speed/ability to manuever the vehicle. It is ridiculous that the risk is so high, and the number of complaints listed on line show a serious issue with this among hundreds of vehicles by jeep and nothing. The dealerships/service continue to make comments like "we were unable to replicate the issue". To be specific: driving at about 25 miles per hour, straight following a right or left turn. . . . Lost power. Lights went on the dash, message above appeared. It took two tries to restart to get me out of the middle of the road. I had my crank shaft sensor replaced on 5/8/19 due to car stalling. Now my vehicle completely shuts off in the middle of traffic this is a safety issue. Please fix it before someone gets seriously injured. |
