| Description of the problem | My 2008 jeep grand cherokee stalled out on the freeway when i was stopping for traffic. Since then it has stalled multiple times. Pulling away from a stop sign; pulling into my driveway; driving on the freeway with or without cruise on. Even while i was trailering my boat. I can re-start the jeep by quickly putting trans into neutral:turning the ignition off than engaging the starter. It won't re-start unless you turn the ignition off first. I don't believe it to be a key/ignition switch problem. I believe it to be a computer control problem. When my jeep stalls; the key is in its proper position every time. |
