Consumer Description

HAVE OWNED USED 2009 JEEP GRD.CHRKE. FOR 10 MONTHS 2 MONTHS IN TO OWNING NOTICED AT TIMES VEHICLE WOULD LOOSE POWER. PRESSING GAS PEDAL DID NOTHING. HAD TO PULL OVER SHUT JEEP OFF, WAIT A MINUTE THEN START JEEP BACK UP. THIS WORKED AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. BUT OVER THE MONTHS IT BECAME MORE FREQUENT. I TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER AND HE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. NO CODES FROM ENGINE. I HAVE HAD THE NECESSARY MAINTENANCE DONE ON THE JEEP. THIS WEEK THE PROBLEM BEGAN ON FRIDAY AND CONTINUES ON. MY JEEP WILL NOT GO OVER 25 MPH. TAKING IT TO AUTHORIZED DEALER AND JEEP REPAIR ON MONDAY. BUT HAVING READ THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE I HAVE VERY LITTLE FAITH THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIX!!! EVEN THOUGH MY COMPLAINT MIMICS SEVERAL OF THE COMPLAINTS SENT IN TO THOSE THAT MANUFACTURER JEEPS!!!
