| Description of the problem | My 2014 jeep cherokee trailhawk started having issues where traction control would engage when stopped at a light and it would stay on until the car was turned off. This progressed to an instance where i was stopped at a light and traction control engaged while stopped and the engine stalled. I took the car to the jeep dealership and the only code was to check wire connections, which they said they did. The car drove fine for about one day, then, while on the highway, the dashboard and radio would start to cut out briefly and come back on. Once i was off the highway and stopped at a light, traction control engaged. At the next light, the car stalled again. I used a code reader and there were no codes available. This could cause an accident if the car loses power when driving at highway speeds. |
