Consumer Description

2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 5.7L. ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS THE CAR HAS STALLED ABRUPTLY WITH THE EFFECT OF LOSING ALL POWER ON STEERING AND BREAKING. SOME SITUATIONS HAVE BEEN CRITICAL AND SOME HAVE NOT BEEN. THE CAR STALLED WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE INTO DRIVE AND ON OTHER OCCASIONS GOING DOWNHILL COMING BACK FROM BIG BEAR (MOUNTAINOUS ROADS) GOING DOWNHILL USING A LOWER GEAR TO USE THE BREAK POWER OF THE ENGINE. THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS I INDICATED BELOW WITH THE DOWNHILL EXPERIENCE. OTHERS FOLLOWED. *TR
