| Description of the problem | When i drove it would seem to lose power and not accelerate like when on highway changing lanes. I was almost in a big accident, had to limp off mass pike highway to garage and after cooled down was able to limp back home instead of continuing to my destination, staying off highway. It often smelled hot. Since then it got worse just driving around town and made a squealing sound and now won't drive at all even though motor is running. Last week it stopped in middle of street when driving and had to have it towed. This is very dangerous and i cant afford a $1500 plus repair for something that is a design flaw. My sisters 2015 jeep was recalled for same issues. |
