Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING MY JEEP IN THE WARMER MONTHS, IF I TRAVEL FOR MORE THAN 30 MILES OR SO THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN THE VEHICLE SEIZES. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT MUCH NOTICE AND LAST WEEK MY DAUGHTER WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. DRIVING ON THE SAN DIEGO 405 FREEWAY IS DANGEROUS ENOUGH HOWEVER; I AM GOING TO LAND UP GETTING KILLED IF THIS IS NOT TAKEN CARE OF. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. WILL IT TAKE A CLASS ACTION SUIT BEFORE CHRYSLER DECIDES TO RECALL THIS EXTREMELY SERIOUS CONDITION??? *JS
