NHTSA Complaint #11073738 — 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 60 MPH THE CAR LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND SLOWED VERY QUICKLY, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ASSIST EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON ( I THINK THAT WAS WHAT IT SAID. AS I PULLED TO THE ROAD SIDE THERE WAS LITTLE NO RPMS . I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND WAITED , RESTARTED AND STILL NO RPMS. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AFTER GOOGLING THE PROBLEM AND RESTARTED AND LIGHTS WHERE ALL GONE . THIS WAS GREAT FOR ABOUT 4 DAYS AND MAYBE 300 MILES AND AGAIN IT HAPPENED . THIS TIME I HAD MY CADE READER AND RECEIVED A P1DCD CODE, I DID NOT CLEAR CODE BUT SHUT ENGINE DOWN AND RESTARTED. THE CAR RAN WITH RPMS OK BUT WAS A BIT SLUGGISH . I CALLED DEALER WHEN I GOT HOME AND THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM TO DO A DIOGNOSTIC TEST TO FIGURE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I DRIVE MY KIDS IN THE MORNINGS AND FEEL THIS COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT . I DONT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT MYSELF LET ALONE MY CHILDREN WITH ME.
