WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, ANTI-SKID BRAKING SYSTEM, AND OR THE COMBINED OPERATION OF THESE SYSTEMS FOR STABILITY CONTROL, ENGAGED INTERMITTENTLY AND UNEVENLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO PULL TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. THIS HAS OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY FIVE TIMES UNDER THREE DIFFERENT DRIVERS ALL AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEED AND UNDER DRY ROAD CONDITIONS. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THERE WAS AN AUDIBLE NOISE (LIKE A VIBRATION SOUND) OF THE BRAKES BEING AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED AND A PULSING IN THE BRAKE PULL. THE SYSTEM HAS ENGAGED ITSELF WHILE THE GAS PEDAL WAS BEING APPLIED AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON DRY PAVEMENT. IMMEDIATELY UPON THE SYSTEM'S APPLICATION I MOVED MY GAS PEDAL FOOT TO THE BRAKE WHERE AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES I COULD FEEL THE PULSING IN THE PEDAL. THIS SITUATION IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN IT OCCURS IT BOTH STARTLES THE DRIVER AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SWERVE TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. THE SYSTEM IS DEFINITELY APPLYING UNEVEN BRAKING TO THE WHEELS TO CAUSE THE SWERVING. WE HAVE DISENGAGED THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM IN ORDER TO DRIVE THE JEEP IN A SAFE MANNER. HOWEVER, IT REQUIRES THE DRIVER TO DISENGAGE EVERY TIME YOU START THE VEHICLE. AT PRESENT EACH DEALER HAS BEEN NONRESPONSIVE IN TAKING ACTION TO CORRECT THIS VEHICLE PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. EACH TIME THEY SAY THAT THEIR DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM IS NOT INDICATING ANY PROBLEMS.

NOTHING WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY I SAW TO FILE A COMPLAINT. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE LED HEADLIGHTS BEING USED IN SO MANY VEHICLES TODAY. AS YOU CAN SEE, I DRIVE A HIGH PROFILE VEHICLE, SO IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH VEHICLES SITTING HIGHER THAN MINE. THE LIGHTS ARE MUCH MORE DANGEROUS TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC THAN THE "BLUE" LIGHTS THAT WERE BANNED SEVERAL YEARS AGO. THE GLARE FROM THESE LIGHTS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY ON SMALL, RURAL ROADS WHICH MAKE UP THE MAJORITY OF THE ROADS WHERE I LIVE AND TRAVEL. NHTSA IS REALLY DROPPING THE BALL ON SAFETY IF YOU LET THESE TYPES OF LIGHTS CONTINUE TO BE USED IN THE CONFIGURATION THEY ARE TODAY. THESE LIGHTS ARE GOING TO LEAD TO NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS, AND MANY WILL BE FATAL, IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY. DOES SOMETHING CATASTROPHIC HAVE TO HAPPEN BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM?
