Description of the problem	I am writing in regard to the investigation pe12-032. I own a 2012 jeep patriot. The vehicle has stalled repeatedly (4 times - 2 times in july 2012, 1 time in november, and 1 time in december) when cruising at a steady highway speed (65 to 75 mph) on a slight down gradient on the interstate. Each time the vehicle had been on the road for two hours or more prior to becoming disabled and required a tow from the highway. Each time the vehicle had between 1/8th and 3/8ths of a tank of fuel. When the patriot was unloaded from the flat bed tow truck, it started immediately on each occasion and the chrysler repair shops could not find a code that indicated the vehicle experienced any problem. The dealers said because there were no diagnostic codes, they would not fix anything. Please help me resolve the issue. I will give you any help i can. Chrysler's case number is [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
