Consumer Description

THIS PROBLEM PERTAINS TO THE 2006 JEEP LIBERTY CRD 2.8L DIESEL. UNDER ACCELERATION FROM 55 MPH TO 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND WOULD NOT GO OVER 3,000 RPM. WHEN THE VEHICLE SLOWED TO 45 MPH, IT WOULD NOT INCREASE SPEED, EFFECTIVELY IN A "LIMP-IN MODE" . AFTER THE VEHICLE STOPPED, THE ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES THEN RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE TRAVELED FOR APPROXIMATELY 5-7 MILES WITH NO PROBLEMS THEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE JEEP DEALER WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND AFTER TWO WEEKS THE DEALER BASICALLY GAVE UP TRYING TO FIX THE CAR. THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED AND AS I SCAN THE INTERNET I FIND THIS IS A COMMON YET DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. *TR
