Description of the problem	At different times, i and a friend driving my jeep 2006 5. 7l hemi commander have accidentally shut off the vehicle while driving on a highway doing 65mph while in cruise control. How this happens is like this. Depending on how you sit, when you engage the cruise control, you remove your foot from the accelerator which brings your knee up rather close to the key ignition. If you have anything attached to your key chain such as other keys that dangle down, then all it takes is for you to move your knee to the right thereby knocking the key chain with the dangling keys which will in turn move the key in the ignition to the off position, basically shutting off the engine while you are doing 65mph on the highway. When this happens, you probably wouldn't realize that this is what just took place because you're too busy being a little freaked out about having just lost all engine power but the electrical still works. This has happened 3 times.
