NHTSA Complaint #10621295 — 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

ON SATURDAY MORNING AFTER PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE MY CAR STALLED AND LOST POWER STEERING. I PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED ENGINE IT WAS FINE. WENT TO OTHER STORE, PARKED IT AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED ONCE I RETURNED TO LEAVE. WHEN I GOT HOME I SHUT OFF THE IGNITION SWITCH AND AFTER APP. 8 SECONDS I HEARD A SOUND COMING FROM BEHIND THE FUSE BOX AREA OR AT LEAST BEHIND THAT AREA . SOUNDED ELECTRICAL "VOOOP, VOOOP" I ALSO NOTICED WHEN GOING UP AN INCLINE AROUND 30 MPH THE CAR HAD A HUGE DELAY, I HAD TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL PRACTICALLY TO THE FLOOR, AND THAN IT KICKED IN AND ZOOMED OFF. I FELT LIKE I WAS LOOSING POWER AND THAN THE CAR TOOK OFF ON ITS OWN! CRAZY FEELING!!! I FEEL AS THOUGH THE COMPUTER THAT IS IN CHARGE OF THE CAR IS OUT OF WRACK AND THE CAR HAS BECOME INCONSISTENT TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF WHAT COULD OCCUR NEXT. I ALSO LOST BRAKES THIS WINTER WHILE DRIVING DUE TO BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE WHICH EVENTUALLY BECAME A RECALL. I WAS SCARED THEN AND I'M AFRAID THIS INCIDENT MAY RESULT IN SOMETHING BIGGER AND WORSE. :( *TR
