Consumer Description

WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS MY JEEP'S ENGINE HAS SHUT OFF" WHILE DRIVING" AT VARIOUS SPEEDS 5 DIFFERENT TIMES BUT NOT EXCEEDING 60MPH. FOUR OF THE SIX TIMES I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTART THE ENGINE, TWO TIMES I HAD TO WAIT APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES BEFORE IT WOULD RESTART. THE INCIDENT AT 60MPH HAPPENED ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY AND LUCKILY I WAS CLOSE TO THE SHOULDER WHEN IT SHUT OFF AND I WAS ABLE TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD BEFORE THE STEERING LOCKED UP AND NO ONE WAS HURT. THE COMPUTER NEVER REGISTERS ANY PROBLEM AND MY MECHANIC HAS STATED THAT IT COULD BE NUMEROUS ISSUES BUT NOTHING FOR SURE. TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE JEEP HAS NEVER ISSUED A WARNING OR RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND AN ACCIDENT JUST WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR
