| Description of the problem | My 2012 jeep grand cherokee laredo has stalled when turning on and has often not turned on. When driving the vehicle the car has shut off almost causing an accident. This has happened on many occasions. The car accelerates often when driving the lights, airbag symbols, etc turn on erratic. I had to replace the alternator and battery due to faulty timp which jeep has recalls on however not my year although-my car has the same problems which i have to pay for and i have researched and many other jeep owners have the same issues and jeep is very aware and are not taking responsibility, i feel unsafe driving this car especially with my children, the car is unreliable and have been late to work due to the car stalls and lack og turning on. This car has a mind of its own starts when it feels like it, speeds up on its own, lights turn on off,tells u keys left the car when it hasn't. Very angry at jeep i should not have to pay for faulty equipment due to your negligence! |
