Consumer Description

I BOUGHT MY JEEP WITH 17MILES ON IT. SINCE I HAVE HAD IT I HAVE HAD MANY REACURRING PROBLEMS. 1ST AROUND THE 8000 MILE MARK MY JEEP STARTED SKIPPING GEARS LIKE WHEN YOU SHIFT A OLD TEN SPEED BIKE. BROUGHT IT TO DEALERSHIP IT TOOK A WEEK OR SO AND GOT IT BACK THE HAD TO REPROGRAM THE SHIFTING MODULE?? THEN 2ND AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR IT WOULD JUST LOSE POWER AND SHUT OFF, NOT FUN WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH. I CALLED THE DEALER THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY IT DID THIS. A FEW DAY LATER I WAS CROSSING A INTERSECTION AND IT DID IT AGAIN. AND I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK. THIS WAS AT ABOUT 30000 MILES. WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID I HAD A OIL PROBLEM. AND THAT IS WHY. THEY REPLACED TOP END OF MY ENGINE?? WELL WHAT ABOUT THE BOTTOM? NOW I'M AT 50000 AND ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT I HAD ARE HAPPENING AGAIN IT IS BUCKING WHEN SHIFTING. RANDOMLY SHUTTING OFF. I'M FEED UP. AND MY CAR ISN'T COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY ANY MORE. AS OF NOW I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL LARGE CAR PAYMENT ON A CAR THAT IS TWO YEARS OLD THAT I DON'T THINK IS GOING TO LAST AS LONG AND MY PAYMENTS. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE MY DAUGHTER AROUND IN IT.
