Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 40-45MPH, AND SUDDENLY THE STEERING GOT INCREDIBLY STIFF. THE VEHICLE HAD STALLED. I MANAGED TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TRIED TO TURN IT BACK ON. IT CRANKED, BUT WOULDN'T TURN OVER. I CALLED JEEP, AND HAD IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD US IT WAS THE GEAR ON THE CAM SPEED SENSOR. THE MECHANIC SHOWED US WHAT HE SAID WAS THE CAM SENSOR. SEVERAL OF THE TEETH ON THE GEAR WERE SHORN OFF. WE ASKED TO KEEP THE BAD PART, AND THEY SAID THAT WAS NOT ALLOWED. I'M AFRAID THE SAME THING WILL HAPPEN WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. *AK
