NHTSA Complaint #10893302 — 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS (APPROXIMATELY 75MPH) THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY STALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND TWICE IN 1-HR IT COMPLETELY SHUTDOWN. THE MOTOR LOST ALL POWER. IT REQUIRES A COMPLETE RESTART OF THE VEHICLE. THE KEY MUST BE TURNED TO THE OFF POSITION AND RESTARTED. IT HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE. IT SEAMS TO HAPPEN UNDER A LOAD OR WHILE ACCELERATING OR PULLING A HILL. IT HAS HAPPENED IN HIGH TRAFFIC CIRCUMSTANCES AND HAS AT TIMES BEEN DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I'VE TAKEN IT TO JEEP TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THEY APPARENTLY HAVE A STAR CASE NUMBER S1218000003 IN WHICH THEY SAY TO CHANGE THE SPARK PLUGS. THIS SEEMS LIKE A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO PUT CONSUMERS IN.
