| Description of the problem | my jeep stalled as i accellerated on the on ramp of a major interstate. I coasted to the shoulder and tried to restart and would not restart until i shut it completely off and restarted. It ran with the check engine light on and the cruise control inopertable. Idle was rough at low and higher rpm's. After about six restarts throughout the day the check engine light went out but the cruise control is still inopertable. One week later it stalled at idle during cold weather warm up with the same results following as before. The vehicle was purchased used from a dealer less than a week prior to the incident with 84,879 mi. A background check through autocheck was conducted prior to purchase with no major finding reported on this specific vehicle. From investigations through multible websites, this issue is common with this vehicle for several years. I have check the recall reports by vin # and this vehicle does not fall in the production catagory of manufacture recall but has the exact same symtoms for a recall. This is a major safety concern if the vehicle stalls on a rural highway with no shoulder to safely pullover. |
