| Description of the problem | I was driving down the highway at 55mph. And out of nowhere the car rpm's dropped to 0 and the car died. As i pumped on the gas i looked in the rearview to make sure i was not going to get hit. After that i turned the car off in the middle of the highway and put on my hazards. It then turned on and after will go to 2 rpm's and then start to jerk back and forth. I have taken it to the dealership 3 times so far and as of now the 3rd time and 3rd with a rental it finally happened to the mechanic at the dealership. And he has no clue his words. So in a two week frame time i have only had my jeep 4 days why because they cant even figure out the problem. I have reported it to chrysler dealership and checked for a recall and they said there is no recall as of yet. I worry because this could cause a accident and typically i have my wife and two children in the jeep with me. If u go to carcomplaints. Com and look up. This model u will see there are up to 60 more incidents. But the dealership/chrysler has yet to do anything. Hopefully it does not seriously harm the owner of the jeep or a person who hits them. |
