Description of the problem | I was driving up to a red light, stopped and the engine started to revve up all by itself. I proceeded through the green light with my foot on the gas the vehicle did not want to accelerate ,i pulled into a parking lot, put in park and shut the vehicle off. This happened after my first oil change around 5000 miles. I restarted the vehicle about 10 minutes later and it drove fine. I drove to the dealership where i had the oil changed. The attendant hooked the vehicle up to a computer check and nothing showed up. I drove without any issues until after my last oil change, i drove from phoenix to prescott az. I took the exit to prescott and slowed down to 35 when i got to mayer az, i stepped on the gas after going through town to accelerate, it would only accelerate to 40 mph with my foot pressed all the way down on the gas pedal. I pulled over and put it in park. I let it sit and stepped on the accelerator the vehicle went again, i came up to a stop light and when i proceeded to go it started revving again. I made it through the stop light and pulled over and turned the vehicle off. Since i restarted it and am back in phoenix i have not had any issues yet. There is something seriously wrong with this vehicle. I am taking it back to the dealership again. I looked online and found this has been a problem with jeeps from previous years, needs to be resolved. Thank you |
