Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING DOWN AN OFF RAMP TOWARDS A RIGHT TURN AT ABOUT 20-30 MPH . I ATTEMPTED TO MAKE THE RIGHT TURN AND BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY HARD , GAS PEDAL WASN'T RESPONDING AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP(NO TURNING) . THE JEEP SLOWED AND NEARLY HIT PARKED CARS SINCE BRAKES AND STEERING WERE NOT WORKING . WHEN JEEP FINALLY STOPPED , I SHIFTED INTO PARK AND PUSHED IGNITION OFF BUTTON . I WAITED A FEW MOMENTS THEN PUSHED START BUTTON AND IT STARTED UP WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR SERVICE MESSAGE . I BELIEVE ALTINATOR OR TIPM FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING . I DON'T BELIEVE MY VEHICLE QUALIFIED FOR T37 ALTINATOR RECALL OR TIPM RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED . I DON'T WANNA PUT MY 2 YEAR OLD SON IN THIS JEEP ANYMORE , HE DESERVES BETTER THAN THAT . 2012 GRAND CHEROKEE 5.7 ALTITUDE WITH ONLY 28000 MILES . I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS JEEP ANYMORE UNTIL ISSUE IS RESOLVED .
