NHTSA Complaint #10621369 — 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE

I AM A NURSE AND TRAVEL FOR A LIVING. ON MY WAY HOME FROM ASSIGNMENT IN WV. JUST OUTSIDE A BOWLING GREEN ON I65. MY CAR JERKED THEN LOST ALL POWER. ENGINE LIGHT, SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. I WAS GOING 70 MILES AN HOUR. I HAD NO ACCELERATION. I COASTED TO THE SHOULDER, ACROSS 3 LANES OF INTERSTATE. I ATTEMPTED JEEPS EMERGENCY NUMBER BUT GOT THE UNABLE TO CONNECT VOICE MAIL, AFTER 5 MINUTES MY CAR RESTARTED. I REMAINED ON RIGHT SIDE OF ROAD. 65 MILES LATER AND 15 MILES FROM NASHVILLE THE CAR JERKED AND I LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE ONCE AGAIN. I PULLED OVER AND THE CAR RESTARTED. I AM NOW IN A HOTEL FOR THE THIRD NIGHT AND UNABLE TO GET HOME. I TOOK MY CAR TO JEEP THIS MORNING TO BE SERVICED. I WAS TOLD A COMPUTER MALFUNCTION CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER DID NOT OFFER TO PAY FOR RENTAL CAR, HOTEL ECT. THE NEW PART IS SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TUESDAY. NO I WAS NOT KILLED OR INVOLVED IN A CRASH HOWEVER, I CAN THINK OF SEVERAL SCENARIOS WHERE I EASILY COULD HAVE BEEN IN A HORRIBLE CRASH. WHAT IF THE NEW MODULE IS ALSO BAD I ASKED. IT'S LIKE MY NEW LAPTOP I WAS TOLD. SOMETIMES THEY JUST BREAK. *TR
