| Description of the problem | I have been experiencing the car wanting to stall out. It is as if the gas is not getting to the engine. I begin to lose power and steering. I gun the gas, but it hestitates. This is hugely dangerous. I am the original owner and have serviced it regularly, and to this day only about 44k on it. This is scaring me. My mechanic just put dry gas in to perhaps alleviate any possible water in the tank after a recent fill-up. I have been reading of many others having the same problem. This is time for a recall, folks. Had i not been on back roads, i could be dead, as could others. I will not drive this on the highway and i need actions, as do many others who have complained. We have way too many jeeps with this problem. Step up, please. |
