| Description of the problem | I have a 2016 jeep cherokee limited. When i am driving the vehicle and slow down such as to make a turn or stop at a redlight, the engine dies out. This has happened multiple times. I had a diagnostic test done on it, and the test indicated the throttle body needed cleaning or the air filter was dirty. I had the throttle body cleaned and the air filter replaced with a new one. The vehicle is still doing the same thing. The is a big safety concern in that the vehicle has stalled while i was in an intersection making a turn. I am concerned that i will get hit by on coming traffic, if this continues to happen. I do not have another vehicle to drive nor is public transportation available. Jeep needs to look into this safety issue before someone is seriously injured or killed. |
