Description of the problem	2005 jeep has been slipping into neutral since february 2013. It caused me to have an accident because i couldn't get out of the way of rear-oncoming traffic. No major damage was done thankfully! A few weeks later i experienced a rollaway. I went into the sitter to pick up my son. After about 5 minutes of being inside i my jeep roll across the street! I go running outside, opened the door and pulled up the emergency break... Just missing an embankment! Since the "neutral" thing started i have had several service lights come on. My mechanic performed a diagnostic check and he said its all electrical. Also, i've had issues with the front passenger window going up/down slower than the rest of the windows since 3 months into purchase. Other issues are cracked door handles (both front doors), replacing taillight kit, ac switch-a few times as it would only work on high.
