NHTSA Complaint #11115695 — 2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

TAKATA RECALL. WAS DRIVING WITH KIDS AND WIFE I BEGAN COMING TO A STOP AND WAS GOING ABOUT 10 TO 15 MPH WHEN THE CAR STALLED OUT. IT SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP ALONG WITH THE BREAK PEDAL WAS NONOE FUNCTIONAL AS WELL AS THE GAS PEDAL AND THE GEAR SHIFT. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO BACK INTO PARK AND LEFT ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD FOR ABOUT 4 MINUTES. I FINALLY GOT IT INTO PARK AND THEN IT WOULDN'T START FOR A FEW MINUTES. THIS ALL HAPPENED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN MY AREA. IT FINALLY STARTED AND WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AS IT IS PRETTY MUCH BRAND NEW. (33K) ON THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS RAN TEST AND HAS TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A 2018 JEEP IN THE SAME PLACE DOING THE SAME THING. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR THERE FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND NOW WE HAVE TO COME PIC IT UP. SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG WITH THE JEEP AS WE WAS IN MOTION, COMING TO A STOP AND WAS NOT TURNING. I WOULD SAY IT'S A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION.
