Description of the problem	I leased a 2005 grand cherokee lardo (v8) on june 30, 2005. During the first 1. 5 months the vehicle has stalled out loosing complete power on 5 seperate occasions. June 24th - pulling out of my driveway june 26th - backing out of my driveway august 20th - pulling out of my driveway august 21st - while traveling 70mph on the expressway (us-23) while traveling 50mph on us-24 when the vehicle stalls it would loose complete power (dash board lights, radio, and yes power steering). After the two expressway incidents i immediately took it back to the dealership where after looking at it they told me they were aware of this problem, but did not know what was causing it or how to fix it so i could pick up the vehicle that afternoon. They also told me they had a few of their own mechanics experience this same problem, but it just went away. I ended up going through several different managers before speakign with the dealership general manager. The following day (the second day they had the vehicle in the garage they told me they gave me wrong information and this has hever happened before.... They were aware of 2004 grand cherokees having a starting problem not a stalling out while driving problem. They said they would not give me a new vehicle or terminate my lease when i requested it since i feel this car is unsafe for my wife to drive with my child. They have now sent it home with a mechanic so he can drive it back and forth to work to see if it happens again. They have not repaired or replaced any parts.
