Consumer Description

I WENT TO START MY JEEP AND IT CAUGHT ON FIRE UNDER THE HOOD. ALSO, IT SOMETIMES DOESN'T START, WHEN IT DOES AND I'M DRIVING, IT STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF MAKING A LEFT TURN AND I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO GET HIT! IT MOSTLY HAPPENS WHEN IT'S RAINING OR A LOT OF MOISTURE IN THE AIR. IT PULLS AND HESITATES WHILE I'M DRIVING AS WELL. MY INSURANCE PAID FOR THE DAMAGE WHEN I HAD THE FIRE, BUT I'M NOW LEARNING THAT IT'S A BIG ISSUE WITH JEEPS. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN AND I'M AFRAID FOR THEIR SAFETY. I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW VEHICLE. *TR
