 Description of the problemMy vehicle kept stalling like it was running out of gas and i took it to the jeep dealer. They kept my car for a week and couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. They told me it might be a fuel pump issue but they weren't positive so they asked me to pick up my car and keep a log. The second time it happened i took it back to the dealer and they kept my car for 5 weeks and couldn't replicate the issue. The customer service was awful. They basically told me they didn't know what was wrong and asked me to pick up my car. I picked my car up and the first day i drove it to work it left me stranded on the highway. The car started stalling out and i couldn't maintain my speed on the highway. I had the gas pushed all the way down and i was barely able to get up to 45 mph on a 65 mph highway. I had it towed to a different jeep dealer which said it was the transmission which i had to pay to have fixed but i think it was related to the fuel pump issue and the transmission blowing up was a result of that not being fixed. The car is starting to have a knocking sound when i drive it again and i'm not convinced i won't be stranded on the side of the road again. It's completely unacceptable that when i had a problem with my jeep i take it to the dealer and they don't know what's wrong and can't help me. If they don't know, who is supposed to know?? I feel that my children and i are unsafe in this car. It's unacceptable that a car just stalls out of nowhere on a highway and jeep/chrysler acted like they could care less. Like it was my problem and not theirs. They inconvenienced me for over 5 weeks and i still don't have a reliable car that i feel safe to drive. Completely unacceptable. Is it going to take someone being seriously injured or killed for chrysler to do the right thing?
