| Description of the problem | When i am driving my car will shift itself into neutral and stall out and then it will shut off when i am traveling 70 mph down the highway. Then when i have to turn it back on i have to turn the key then shift my car into neutral and let it coast a little so that way it will turn over. It has done this 6 times now and the last time this happened it broke down and it would not start back up. The last three time this happened i was on the highway, traveling about 70 mph. When it happened about the third time a different light came on saying my throttle peddle was going bad and that the ignition was going bad as well. I took it to go get the codes read but every where i took they were saying they could not help me and that we would have to pay out of pocket for it. Meanwhile my fiance and i looked up recalls on the jeep cherokees and there is recalls on the transmissions and other things as well. And all the recalls are for the 6 cylinder jeeps but my jeep is having all the same problems that the 6 cylinder jeeps are having. But no one will help fix it. I have talked to chrysler corporation 2 times an each time we talk to them they say it is not their problem and that it is our problem. My car is unsafe to drive and it do not trust to even have my family in it. |
