| Description of the problem | This jeep was replaced because the prior jeep was lemon law. The engine light appeared after about 3 weeks of purchase, the car was brand new. Like the last jeep, it would stall causing loss of power brakes and power steering. The electrical system would also freeze (navigation and radio) constantly and would not fix itself unless the battery was unplugged. Shave jeep in thousand oaks, ca upgraded the engine and navigation software, but problems resumed short after. Shaver jeep then informed me that they would only look at the vehicle if the engine light was on. The engine light would go on and off so it was hard to time it right to bring it into the shop. Because of this "rule," shaver jeep will not acknowledge that the car has been brought in for repair 7 times. As of today, the car stalled on a busy freeway and put the passengers in danger. Constant engine code: crankshaft position sensor. |
