| Description of the problem | The car shuts off while driving (happens when going 10mph-70mph) i get an error message saying place car in park and shift to gear and the battery light flashes and some other lights on dashboard. I have had my battery checked which is fine and oil changed and still having the issue, jeep told me i have to pay to have diagnostic testing however looking online there are 200-300 complaints i have seen showing the same issue and them being told numerous things to fix the issue which result in spending tons of money with no result. This is very dangerous as the car stops running while on highways or even main roads which could cause an accident. I have 2 small children and i do not feel safe driving in the car anymore. There doesn't seem to be a exact time this happens it happens at different speeds while accelerating or while going a steady speed, low mph or high it happens randomly and frequently. |
