2007 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	955396
Internal NHTSA #	10488900
Manufacurer	Chrysler Group LLC
Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2007
File date	15/12/12
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I was driving 65 miles per hour on the expressway, when suddenly, my jeep began to decelerate until it reached about 40 miles per hour, even though i maintained constant pressure on the accelerator pedal. It felt like i had no control over the speed of the vehicle. Traffic was light so i coasted, and pressed the pedal a little harder, until eventually, the suv lurched and then started to accelerate. About 3 minutes later, the same thing happened again while i was still driving on the expressway. The vehicle decelerate to 35 while it seemed that i could not control the speed, and then accelerated again. After the acceleration dropped and then increased the second time, i was able to maintain 65 miles per hour until i exited the expressway 15 miles later near my home. Driving a vehicle under these conditions is a horrible feeling! I was so afraid that a car or truck moving at the normal speed would crash into me. If the traffic had been heavier, i would have had to pull over to the side of the highway, which would have been even more terrifying, because it was dark outside, and i had no idea what was going on or how long i would be stranded. We just had the suv's engine tuned one month ago at the dealer's service center, and we also had the oil changed at the same time. There haven't been any episodes like this until now. I'm actually afraid to drive the jeep again!
