| Description of the problem | Have had my jeep for 6 years its always stalling i took it to jeep chrysler dodge, firestone nobody can figure out whats wrong; it actually turns itself off and nobody knows why. This is dangerous this car needs a recall. I have read that 2012 models do this same thing but this one does it too. Also the sunroof leaks as well and the rainwater goes into the lights. I would never recommend a jeep to anybody ever again, these cars are not safe and no one cares about this problem. I have paid to get it looked at but they don't know how to fix it, i have been told it probably needs a system update there is nothing wrong but yet my car turns itself off all the time going down the highway at speeds 65 miles an hour the engine stalls and shuts off the sunroof has leaked and poured inside the jeep since the day i had it it's a very dangerous vehicle it needs to please be investigated |
