| Description of the problem | My 2006 jeep grand cherokee lardeo has all the same issues as listed by every other jeep owner. The engine randomly shuts off while driving down the road, the dash board and headlights flicker on and off constantly. Sometimes we start sometimes we dont. When pulling out into traffic , maybe it will go, maybe it wont. I have lost my brakes on several occasions as well. Now the jeep sits in my driveway as it wont start at all, and of coarse nobody can tell me what is wrong with it as usual ! Nothing like paying for a dead horse ! I have contacted the chrysler corporation only to be told these are not "safety" issues. Good lord what does it take to get a decent vehicle that is safe and reliable ? I guess that would be not buying anything chrysler, dodge, jeep in the future is the route i will take ! I only hope when one of these ticking bombs fail, my family and friends arent on the road that day ! |
