| Description of the problem | The vehicle's engine has a consistent tendency to sputter, hesitate, and/or completely shut-off, especially after fueling. This has happened on busy roadways and and intersections. We have attempted to have the problem diagnosed and repaired but i quickly realized they had no idea what the real problem was and was employing a shot-in-the-dark method. Since then i have found several other owners with this same problem but with no response from jeep/chrysler/dodge. I am the primary driver of this vehicle now, as i do not want my wife and child to be subjected to this potential hazard. |
