Consumer Description

A CONSTANT AND LOUD TICKING SOUND IS COMING FROM THE 4.0 V6 ENGINE, THE ENGINE STALLS AND THERE IS LOSS OF POWER USUALLY WHEN TURNING A CORNER. THE ENGINE ALSO MISFIRES AT TIMES WHEN ACCELERATING. THIS SHOULD BE DOCUMENTED AS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IN TRAFFIC. *TR
