NHTSA Complaint #10937717 — 2008 JEEP COMMANDER

TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH ON I-85 WHEN THE JEEP COMMANDER MADE A CLUNK SOUND AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THERE WAS NO POWER AND IT WAS UNABLE TO START. THIS OCCURRED AROUND 10PM WHEN I WAS HEADING HOME AFTER WORK. IT WAS A SCARY EXPERIENCE SINCE IT WAS DARK. I WAS EXTREMELY THANKFUL FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT PRESENTING AND STAYED WITH ME UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. I TOOK IT TO A FIRST MECHANIC WHO STATED THE ENGINE WAS TOTALED. I WENT FOR A SECOND OPINION TO ANOTHER MECHANIC SINCE THE CAR WAS MADE IN 2008 AND HAS ABOUT 112,000 MILES BUT WAS ALSO INFORMED THE ENGINE WAS TOTALED. THIS WAS A SHOCK AND DISAPPOINTING SINCE I DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE.
