I PURCHASED THIS JEEP AND NOT EVEN A MONTH AFTER HAVING IT CUT OFF WITH DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT WILL SAY I HAVE NO GAS AND THE TANK WILL BE FULL. AT TIMES IT WOULD START OTHER TIMES IT HAD TO BE TOWED (3 TIMES IN FACT). THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 OR 6 TIMES AT ALL DIFFERENT SPEEDS. I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP 450.00 LATER STILL HAD THE PROBLEM.
