Consumer Description
I HAVE A FEW PROBLEMS THAT IS GOING ON WITH MY JEEP. ONE, THERE HAS BEEN A FEW OCCASIONS WHERE I AM DRIVING MY JEEP, AT A SLOW SPEED, AND IT WILL DING AND LOCK UP. THEN IT WILL SHUT OFF. I WILL HAVE TO SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE IT WILL ALLOW ME TO CRANK IT AGAIN. I HAVE ALSO HAD AN ISSUE WHERE WHEN DRIVING MY JEEP TO MY DESTINATION, IT DOES FINE. BUT ONCE I PARK, THE CAR WILL NOT START AGAIN UNLESS JUMPED OFF. I REPLACED THE BATTERY EXPECTING THAT TO FIX IT, BUT IT DID NOT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND NO ONE CAN FIND A PROBLEM. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN SOME PROBLEMS WITH IT THROWING A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE CODE SAYS THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. WHEN I TAKE IT SOMEWHERE, THEY SAY THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR IS FINE. I JUST WANT MY CAR TO BE SAFE FOR ME AND EVERYONE AROUND ME. MY CAR HAS LEFT ME STRANDED ON MANY OCCASIONS, AND IT IS UNRELIABLE. I AM SCARED TO TAKE MY CAR ANYWHERE EXCEPT WORK AND HOME DUE TO THE FACT I DON'T TRUST IT.
