| Description of the problem | I currently own a 2007 jeep wrangler . I have experienced a stalling problem with vehicle 5 time in the last 2 months. 4 of the 5 time i was traveling at night at speeds of 50 to 65 mph on an interstate. The reason i am writing this complaint is i almost rear ended a tractor trailer running at a slower speed after the stall turned of the light and gave me no brake power. This is very dangerous almost costing me my life. I am taking it to the dealer to have a recall notice done on 03/21/08. This problem seems to be coming quite common on these jeeps, i hope a death does not happen before they fix the defect. |
