| Description of the problem | I have taken my 2005 jeep grand cherokee into the dealership 3 times for rough idle and stalling issues. They informed my that it was the spark plugs and needed a throttle body cleaning. So i paid to have those things done. Then, 2 days after the service was performed, i was driving and my vehicle shut off. I was in the middle of traffic and lost ability to steer and brake. Luckily i was able to safely move on the shoulder and avoid a collision. I have done quite a bit of research online about this problem, and there are many people who have the same problem with their 4. 7 gc and commanders. |
