Consumer Description

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, I WAS GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY SLOWING DOWN FROM A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND MY ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF. I D ID NOT EVEN KNOW THE ENGINE WAS OFF UNTIL I TRIED TO TURN AND HAD NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. ALL THE LIGHTS AND RADIO WAS STILL ON. I HAD TO PUT MY JEEP IN PARK THEN START IT AGAIN AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN ONE WEEK. I AM TERRIFIED WHILE DRIVING NOW THAT IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN.
