 Description of the problemOn thursday aug. 20, 2015 i started the jeep to head out for errand duties when it wouldn't start. I tried a again about ten minutes later and it started. Later that afternoon i was driving on us1 in levittown, pa when the jeep stopped while i was driving. Luckily, i was able to partially turn my car towards a drive that led to a shopping center parking lot when no longer it could move. The back end of the jeep was hindering traffic and cars were honking away but i couldn't move the car any further. It just stopped right there. Fortunately, i flagged down a police officer from falls township and he came right over to help me when he noticed my predicament. Either he called in for help because i discovered another police office directing traffic away from the jeep. We managed somehow to get the car started and it began to move. I was asked to drive it to a parking space where a maintenance man, along with the officer tightened the bolts on my battery. Then i followed the officer to a service station where another mechanic tightened the bolts, too. The mechanic suggested i get to a service station to solve what happened. I took my jeep to my mechanic for a scheduled inspection on aug. 24, if i'm correct. The battery passed inspection but the emission failed the test. Now i'm driving without inspection stickers and proper papers for the police if i should get stopped. Meanwhile i contacted reedmantoll in langhorne, pa to see what i can do to get this fixed. I'm waiting to hear back from them. Now, i'm deathly afraid to drive the jeep for fear i'd be driving and it stops while doing so. I've owned this jeep for 3 days before all of this happened and rarely go out at all due to my fear of causing a terrible accident injuring, or killing, innocent people.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?
