Consumer Description

Right before arrive to home my wife an kids (2), the Jeep Patriot 2016 completely shutdown the engine when she slowed down in a gated community to pass a speed bump. The dash lights still on but the car didn't run. She had to maneuver to stop the car. Then she backed the key and start the car and it turned on as usual. Luckily was in the gated community and no traffic here but, I could not imagine what will happen if this engine suddenly shutting down in a highway. I could loose my entire family in a second.
