Description of the problem | When pressing start button, engine cranks for about 8 seconds and won't fire. Can press start button again, sometimes starts on 2nd or 3rd try, sometimes not until the 6th try. Problem progressed to a condition where the engine was running, but sputtered and did not want to stay running. Was able to drive vehicle home since it wasn't far away. Tow truck has taken jeep to the dealer and am waiting for part to arrive from new york but have been told it may not be available. Parts and labor are not covered by warranty, dealer states that gas tank needs to be removed for the repair. |
