| Description of the problem | This is my 2nd complaint to you guys about this frightening and dangerous issue of my jeep commander engine stalling problems. I almost had another accident by driving 35 mph and the engine just stalls, power and lighting flashes on and off, then fails. No power over the car and the steering wheel locks up! The car behind me had to veer sharply to keep from running into the back of me. It was an unexpected stall for other vehicles as well as myself. I have tried to get help, but to no avail. I am scared to continue to drive this dangerous auto and need some help either replacing it or jeep to take it back! Also, it still jerks forward, (with my foot on the brake!) while i'm sitting at a light, almost hitting the pedestrians walking in the crosswalk in front of me. There are many complaints on the internet with very similar and like complaints and no one is doing anything about it. I guess they're waiting for a tragedy, instead of trying to prevent one. Please advise. |
