Description of the problem	I am afraid to drive my vehicle. The first issue happened a few months ago, the car refused to start and had to be towed to the dealership to get fixed. There was an electrical fault, and could have happened at any point. Currently the vehicle has been at the dealership since november 10th. The vehicle hesitates before moving forward when i step on the gas, then something engages and it jumps forward. Sometimes it comes to a stop before it rapidly accelerates. The jeep has been at atlantic jeep for almost four weeks and the dealer has not been forthcoming in explaining what is going on. They can't seem to figure it out themselves and i am in fear of driving this car in the future if the same problems occur. There seems to be a big risk of having a crash with the issues described above. This happened on highways, streets, slow or fast didn't seem to have an affect. This has been a major issue, and is very scary for me as a driver.
