Consumer Description
OUR 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED 4BY4 HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT. THIS CAR IS 13 MONTHS OLD AND WE HAD TO TAKE IT IN TO OUR DEALER FOR THE SAME TIME SEVERAL TIMES. THE ENGINE KEEPS STALLING ON US WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. IN DECEMBER 2014 IT STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 65MPH. ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE CAR SIMPLY DIDN?T WANT TO DRIVE. THIS WAS EXTREMELY SCARY FOR US WHILE TRAVELLING ON A HIGHWAY WITH HIGH SPEEDS. THE CAR DROPPED IN MPH WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, WHEN I PULLED OVER AND TURNED ON/OFF TO RESET IT, IT DIDN?T WORK. THE DEALER RAN TESTS AND THEY COULDN?T COME UP WITH A PROBLEM. AGAIN THIS HAPPENED TO MY HUSBAND IN APRIL WHILE HE WAS DRIVING, AGAIN THE CAR STALLED, MY HUSBAND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AGAIN THEY CHECKED THE ENGINE, ELECTRONICS AND COULDN?T ADDRESS THE ISSUE, SAID EVERTHING WAS OK. OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST 13 MONTHS IT WOULD STALL MID DRIVE BUT WE WOULD QUICKLY REST THE VEHICLE AND WE WOULD STILL DRIVE IT, SHOULD HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SOONER BECAUSE NOW IT JUST GOT A LOT WORSE. TODAY, WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, I COULDN?T COMPLETE A TURN, MY JEEP STALLED, MPH DROPPED TO 0 WITHOUT ME PUTTING IT IN PARK AND STILL TRYING TO ACCELERATE. FINALLY, I PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO TURN IT OFF, COULDN?T TURN IT OFF FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES. FINALLY I TURNED IT OFF STILL IN PARK, RESTARTED BUT THE CAR STILL DIDN?T WAN TO DRIVE EVEN AFTER I PUT IT IN DRIVE. IT EVEN ROLLED BACK A LITTLE. VERY SCARY SINCE I WAS WITH MY YOUNG CHILD AND IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA. I TOTALLY LOST CONTROL OVER THE CAR. THE CARS ELECTRONICS ARE COMPLETELY BROKEN, IN ADDITION TO FAULTY ENGINE IT SEEMS? THIS A 35K CAR THAT DOESN?T WORK,, VERY UNRELIABLE AND THE DEALER CAN?T DETERMINE OR ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. SOMEONE REALLY NEEDS LOOK INTO THIS?. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. PLEASE HELP!
