| Description of the problem | After leaving the gym on my lunch break i took (thank god) the not so heavy traffic road to get back to work. My jeep cut off on me while driving. I had to pull over. Again my wipers start going and the lights come on and the horn won't stop blaring so i had to open the hood and tap on the fuse box lid. After the 5th attempt the car decided to come on. I do not feel safe driving my vehicle if i am right next to the emergency lane. This has to stop and should be a recall. I have a child and this is very not safe. The same incident happened to me last week coming down a busy street. Again blessed i was near the driveway of a business i did not get into an accident and pulled over waiting for my jeep to decide when it wanted to start again. Why is this not a recall? I took my jeep several months back to the dealer and was without transportation for 2 weeks before they got to looking at it and stated they could not find the problem and sent it back home to me. Please investigate this issue as i am not the only person this has been happening to. |
