Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER A FEW MINUTES ALL OF THE OTHER LIGHTS, SEATBELT, ENGINE, ETC. STARTED TO FLASH. THEN MY AIR CONDITIONING TURNED OFF, MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING AND MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. LUCKILY I WAS PULLING OFF OF AN EXIT. AFTER FINDING OUT THAT THERE WERE 5 RECALLS, I TOOK THE JEEP TO A DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM FIX IT. I PICKED IT UP A FEW DAYS LATER AFTER THEY SAID IT WAS READY. THE DAY AFTER PICKING IT UP...I WAS AGAIN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE JEEP DID THE EXACT SAME THING!!! AGAIN LUCKILY I KNEW THE SIGNS AND PULLED OVER QUICKLY BUT STILL LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WENT OUT. *TR
