| Description of the problem | Jeep grand cherokee ltd 2005- we have 4 drivers in our family 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Our jeep will suddenly cut out and turn off while we are on the freeway at 65 plus speeds the car just dies everything just locks off and the car is just dead. It has happened over 6 times. You are on a freeway and somehow have to maneuver over to the side of the freeway. Its very scary. It has happened to me four times my husband once and my daughter once. The car also doesn't start right away once you are on the shoulder. Very dangerous situation no rhyme or reason and no warning i have read other jeeps are having this problem. |
