TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED CLEANING THE THROTTLE BODY AND THE FUEL INJECTORS. HOWEVER, THEY WERE UNSURE IF THAT WAS THE REASON FOR THE STALLING. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE 40,500. *AK THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY PROBLEMS BECAUSE CODES DID NOT REGISTER AFTER VEHICLE SHUT OFF. UPDATE 4/23/07*TR

IN FEB. 2013 I PURCHASED A 2013 GRAND JEEP TRAIL HAWK EDITION, IN SPAN OF 3 TO 4 MONTHS THE JEEP WAS IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT 6 TIMES TRYING TO FIX ISSUES. JEEP WAS UNABLE TO COMPLETELY FIX THE PROBLEMS TO MY SATISFACTION, I WAS GIVEN INCENTIVE TO TRADE IN FOR A 2014 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED EDITION, WHICH WAS RUNNING GREAT UNTIL THIS PAST THURSDAY. ON THURSDAY I STARTED MY JEEP IT BARELY WOULD IDLE, I PROCEEDED TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE WHICH IS WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED JUMPING UP AND DOWN LIKE I WAS GOING OFF ROAD. IT WOULD SUDDENLY CHANGE TO NEUTRAL WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING, IT KEPT MISSING GEARS AND BARELY RUNNING. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET OFF THE EXIT. WHEN I GOT OFF THE EXIT IT WOULD BARELY IDLE AND AGAIN SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING. EVENTUALLY I SAFELY MADE IT OFF THE EXIT AND INTO A PARKING LOT WHERE I GOT IT TOWED. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER COULD BARELY PULL IT UP ON THE TRAILER. WHEN IT WAS PLACED ON THE TRAILER IT WOULDN'T STAY IN PARK, IT KEPT TRYING TO SHIFT OUT OF GEAR. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE OF INVESTIGATION IN THE GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE MODELS AND HOW THEY ARE PASSING INSPECTIONS THROUGH PRODUCTION LINE BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY FOR A CONSUMER TO GET TWO DEFECTIVE VEHICLES IN 7 MONTHS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNBELIEVABLE.
