| Description of the problem | While i am driving my jeep will buck and shut down. I then had to make my way over to the side of the road on the highway while cars are going 65mph or greater and my speed is slowing down. When i was able to pull over and stop. I had to remove the key and place the car in park before it would start. The first few times i tried while in neutral and moving to the side of the highway it would just continue to click and keep clicking. This has been happening several times a day now and my route to work is 95% highway. It is scary that someone might hit me and cause a terrible accident. I noticed this has happened to several jeeps around the world with the same issue. I noticed a recall for the jeep going into neutral but nothing about this major issue about the car bucking and stalling while driving. I noticed my jeep had its ignition switch changed out some time ago also. I wonder if he had problems before he traded. I have no other car to drive or i would and i have spent over $500 trying to find out what the issue is. Please start investigating before someone gets hurt. |
