 Description of the problemDriving my car and the engine revved, the lightning bolt light came one, and the lost ability to move at more than 5mph. I pulled off the road and let it sit for a few minutes. Started it back up and it was fine. Got it home and to the dealer the next day. Dealer assured me they knew exactly what it was and could fix it. Got it back a few days later and it was fine. Fast forward a few months, my teenage daughter was driving and did the same thing. She managed to get off the road, a 4 lane major highway, safely and call me. Called the dealer and had it towed. Was told they checked everything over and reset the computer it should be good to go. Again, car was fine for a little while and the whole process started over. Again, the third time, had it towed to the dealer. They called and were unable to replicate the issue and could see nothing wrong with it. Their advice was the next time it happened to leave the car running and have it towed to them still running so they could see what was going on. This had been going on for 4 years now. Really, that is your expert advice. I do not drive it much anymore and had to purchase a new car for my daughter because this thing is a death trap. Cant wait until the day i can unload it, will never own another jeep in my life.
