| Description of the problem | The car would die after being at a stop sign and accelerating to pull out into an intersection leaving my daughter with no power. This has happened at least 3 to 4 times since we purchased this jeep from the first owner. We've been waiting for months to get this corrected. I call the local dealer every 3-4 months trying to get this resolved. With the first incident and maybe the second, the recall hadn't been issued. We first thought we needed to change out the spark plugs. After not getting any assistance because there is no available part, we called the chrysler group recall center. After waiting over two hours to speak to someone and only getting the recorded greeting, we gave up. We are very concerned at this point as our youngest daughter is using this vehicle. We love this car but safety comes first. After reading the information provided by chrysler regarding its descripted "the problem", ethically, i couldn't sell this to anyone knowing it has a recall. |
