Consumer Description

AS I HAVE NOW READ ONLINE OF HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME PROBLEM... I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY AT 70 MPH, THE ENGINE JUST QUIT ON MY AND EVERYTHING SHUTDOWN. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE CAR TO THE SIDE (WITHOUT AND POWER STEERING) AND STOP COMPLETELY, TAKE OUT THE KEY, REINSERT IT AND IT STARTED UP. NO PROBLEMS AFTER THAT UNTIL I WAS DRIVING THE HWY AGAIN IN SEPTEMBER AND IT DID IT AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULTS. I HAVE NOW TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (WOLFCHASE JEEP IN GERMANTOWN, TN) AND THEY ARE REPLACING THE MAP SENSOR AND A COUPLE OF OTHER THINGS - INCLUDING A MANIFOLD GASKET - FOR A TOTAL OF $1000. INTERESTINGLY WHEN I ASKED THE SERVICE REP. IF JEEP HAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS, HE DENIED ANY KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH A PROBLEM! *TR
