| Description of the problem | On numerous occasions, my 2016 jeep cherokee shut down mid turn or while driving. On many turns, it dies as i complete the turn. I am writing this complaint because on my way to work, my jeep's engine shut off in the middle of the turn on a city street in morning traffic. This has happened before. My jeep dealer said he has seen this happen to "10-11 chrysler/jeep/dodge/ram vehicles". His suggestions was "to get an oil change" and it will fix it. I went to get an oil change my car engine shut off in the middle of the busiest street in the city during lunch traffic. This has happened 5-7 times this year. I cannot believe this has not been addressed. This is life threatening. I imagine this is happening on the highway and free way with other customers. Cars were swerving to avoid a collision with my car. If you were to research this issue on google, it's the first result. The engine literally stops in the middle of operation. How else does this need to be phrased to get jeep's attention? |
