| Description of the problem | Driving on the interstate at 75mph when my wife had a red lighting bolt appear on the dash board, at which time the power dropped off. She had to move across two lanes of traffic with no power. Once it was on the shoulder, she called me in a panic. I went on the internet and found out how to reset the throttle body assembly. The vehicle started back up and was able to drive it home. It was a very dangerous and scary experience. I called jeep dealership and to my surprise they was no recall for this issue. The internet was full of people who had this very issue. I call their corporate service line and they confirmed no safety recall exists. They told me they could not confirm whether they would or would not self report this issue. |
