Consumer Description

I JUST RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 5.7 HEMI WITH APPROX. 118,000 MILES. DRIVING ABOUT 10MPH IN A PARKING LOT, I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE FOR A STOP SIGN. WHEN I WENT TO GO I GOT ACROSS THE INTERSECTION THEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE REVVED UP AND I LOST ALL PROPULSION POWER. I HAD ROLL TO A STOP, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN START UP AGAIN TO GET THINGS WORKING CORRECTLY WHILE IN DRIVE. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN 2 OTHER TIMES AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU LOSE YOUR PROPULSION.
