Description of the problem	3. 7 l jeep grand cherokee laredo with 9,000 miles. First major trip we have (about 500 miles away from home), our vehicle stalled. There was fire under the hood, it's good that the suv stalled in front of the service center or there could be an explosion. We just purchased this vehicle in less than 6 mos. The service center told us that it will take about 2 weeks till we could get our jeep back and it's already 17 days; i made a follow-up and was told that they haven't received the transmission that they've ordered. The service center have us rent a car. Called chrysler and we were told that there is only safety concern and our vin number is not included in the recall.
