 Description of the problemAgainst my better judgement, i purchased an immaculate, loaded 2014 jeep cherokee limited with 31k miles. Wife loved the vehicle, it drove/rode great and felt like a great purchase. After 2 weeks, it started idling rough and went dead in our drive. We thought it was bad gas as we had just filled up and headed to auto store for some heet or seafoam to clear it up. Cherokee died in the middle of street as we coasted to stop at red light. We were scared for our lives as we were almost hit in the intersection. The check engine light came on along with message to place in park, restart, then select desired gear. We placed in park, restarted, and selected drive. Vehicle went dead again. Same message appeared then we received service transmission message. While in full panic mode, we finally started vehicle, then it loudly lunged into gear, bouncing in gear while limping with little power steering off street and died in parking lot. We were able to restart vehicle and limped the half-mile back home at approximately 10 mph. I had vehicle towed to place of purchase and are currently awaiting diagnosis from dealer. This vehicle is definitely unsafe and almost caused us to have an accident when it died in the middle of the street without warning. We were almost hit in the intersection. Very disappointed in my purchase. I should have known better!
