Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ON HIGHWAY ABOUT 60 MPH THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE ENGINE WAS STILL ON. ACCORDING TO THE GAS GAUGE THE TANK HAD AT LESS THAN A QUARTER OF A TANK OF GAS, AND COMSUMER THINKS THE TANK WAS EMPTY. JEEP MANUFACTURER SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM; THEY HAD ISSUED A TECHNICAL BULLETIN TO THE DEALER AND NOT TO THE PUBLIC. ACCORDING TO THE COMSUMER, THE DEALER SAID THEY HAD HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM ONLY IN FLORIDA, NOT IN THE NORTH. THE MANUFACTURER TOLD COMSUMER THEY DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL BECAUSE THEY DID NOT KNOW WHICH VEHICLE HAS THE PROBLEM. *AK
