Consumer Description

LIKE MANY OTHER JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FROM 95 - 99 MY JEEP HAS STARTING CUTTING OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MANY COMPONENTS HAVE BEEN CHANGED. THIS IS A WIDELY DOCUMENTED PROBLEM OF POOR QUALITY CONTROL LEADING TO SOLDER JOINT FAILURES ON THE ECM BOARD. THIS CAUSES AN INTERRUPTION OF THE SIGNAL AND CAUSE THE VEHICLES ENGINE TO DIE OR SPUTTER AT ANY SPEED OR TIME. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED WHEN THE PROBLEM IS SO WELL DOCUMENTED ON NUMEROUS JEEP WEBSITES. THIS JEEP ALSO SUFFERS FROM THE 50MPH SHAKE. *TR
