Consumer Description

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, MY JEEP WILL NOT GO, IT HESITATES BADLY, SEEMS TO HAVE NO POWER. IT DOES THIS DAILY. NOT EVERY TIME FROM A STOP BUT QUITE OFTEN. I HAVE TAKEN THIS TO A DEALER IN GERMANY WHILE STATIONED THERE AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT OR HAVE ANY EXPLAINATION ON WHAT IS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. MY JEEP HAS LESS THAN 42,000 MILES ON IT NOW AND WAS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN IT FIRST STARTED DOING THIS, IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR YEARS. IT IS SCARY TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND HAVE THE CAR GO NO WHERE, IT IS NOT STALLING, IT SEEMS TO LOOSE GO-POWER, MAYBE NOT ENOUGH FUEL. I HAVE AM THE PRIMARY DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS VERY OFTEN. IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS PROBLEM? PLEASE HELP. *AK
