 Description of the problemWhile driving home on a city street at approx. 35mph, my 2016 jeep cherokee latitude lost power and shut off, stating "shift to p and then desired gear" and the battery light illuminated. There were no warnings before this occurred. The vehicle lost power steering and brakes, and was then hesitant to restart. After starting, the vehicle jumped forward a bit but would not properly drive, and was towed home and then ultimately to a dealer. The vehicle has been having transmissions issue and was also found to have a defective battery 3 weeks ago, so the safety concerns of this vehicle continue to grow. After researching, i learned this is an extremely common issue, often caused by low oil, or no cause found. There are high risks to life and property for a vehicle that will just shut down at will without any warning.
