I HAVE HAD THE STARTER, ALTERNATOR, ENGINE AND SPARK PLUGS CHANGED AND CHECKED BUT IT STILL IS DOING THE SAME THING. THIS IS UNSAFE WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR AND NO WARNING LIGHT TO SAY THAT ANYTHING IS WRONG. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED I'VE SEEN TOO MANY TRUCKS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES LIKE MINES. *TR

BRAKES FAILED FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

ENGINE STARTED STALLING WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS AT ABOUT 35MPH. LOST POWER STEERING, BRAKES ON A SHARP CURVE! DEALER FOUND ECM (ENGINE CONTROL MODULE OR COMPUTER BAD). THAT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME IN 2010. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN IN 6/2013 AND NOW AGAIN IN 3/2014 EXCEPT THE ONE OF THE LAST TWO TIMES THE CAR JERKED AND WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AS WE STARTED TO PASS SOMEONE ON A 2-LANE ROAD. THE JEEP JERKED, IMMEDIATELY STARTED SLOWING AND THEN THE ENGINE DIED CAUSING LOSS OF POWERSTEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND ALMOST BEING HIT FROM BEHIND AS WE WERE NOT QUITE CLEAR OF THE CAR WE WERE PASSING AND HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO SLOW AND MOVE BACK INTO LINE BEHIND THE SLOWER CAR AHEAD OF US, AS THE ENGINE DIED AND TWO OTHER CARS WERE PASSING THE SLOWER CAR FROM BEHIND US ALMOST RAN INTO US!!! THEN WE GOT THE CAR STARTED, DROVE ABOUT ANOTHER 3 MILES TO A BUSINESS, AS WE WERE ON A RURAL ROAD AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THE CAR WOULD DIE (TWICE MORE) AND NOT GO OVER 59 MPH OR 2600 ENGINE RPM. THE DEALER AND OUR SHOP MANAGER SAYS "THIS IS A HABITUAL PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF CHRYSLER PRODUCTS...THEY HAVE POORLY MADE ENGINE CONTROL MODULES, THE WORST IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY"! THE SHOP MANAGER SAYS "IT'S A REAL SAFETY ISSUE THAT ISN'T BEING ADDRESSED ANYWHERE!" *TR

I CAN'T PUT GAS IN THE TANK UNLESS IT IS AT THE VERY SLIGHTEST FLOW OR IT JUST SHUTS OFF AND SOMETIMES SPEWS GAS BACK OUT AT ME. I HAVE BEEN SOAKED WITH GASOLINE MORE THAN ONCE. I CAN'T EVEN PUT IT ON THE LOWEST SETTING ON THE HANDLE. I SAW THE RECALLS AND CALLED THE DEALER WHO SAID THAT THEY KNOW THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT BUT THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE MY VIN ISN'T IN THE RECALL. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A FIRE HAZARD AND I CAN'T BELIEVE WE CAN'T GET THIS FIXED. *TR
