Consumer Description

CAR WILL STAY AT 40 MPH AS IF LOCKED INTO THAT SPEED. I PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR WILL NOT GO ANY FASTER. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF, WHEN RESTARTED IT WORKS FINE FOR A WHILE. THEN RANDOMLY IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS HAS OCCURRED ROUGHLY ONCE A MONTH FOR THE PAST YEAR. ON LINE THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF JEEP OWNERS REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE. I CALLED JEEP BUT THEY SAID CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY SO TOUGH LUCK. I HAVE OWNED 23 CARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR DO THIS TO ME. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON RURAL STREETS.
