VEHICLE WILL STALL WITH NO/LITTLE WARNING. STALLS GENERALLY OCCUR DURING WET AND/OR HUMID WEATHER CONDITIONS, HOWEVER DOES ALSO OCCUR DURING DRY CONDITIONS. STALLS USUALLY OCCUR DURING IDLING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN GEAR (STOPPED AT INTERSECTIONS OR IN TRAFFIC), BUT CAN ALSO OCCUR DURING INITIAL ACCELERATION FROM A STOP. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE EARLY 2012 AND IS INCREASING IN FREQUENCY. CHRYSLER HAS A RELATED RECALL (08V528000, "POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM)"), WHICH SEEMS TO EXACTLY DESCRIBE THIS FAILURE, HOWEVER CHRYSLER CLAIMS THAT THIS SPECIFIC VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY
I PARKED MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN THE BANK FLAT PARKING LOT. I PUT IT IN N' AND PULLED THE E BRAKE AND PLACED MY KEYS IN THE CUP HOLDER OF THE JEEP. I WALKED INSIDE AND WAITED IN LINE UNTIL SOMEONE TOLD ME A RED JEEP WAS GOING BACKWARDS DOWN THE MAIN ROAD. I RAN OUT OF THE BANK, DOWN THE ROAD TO FIND MY JEEP STOPPED BY A BRICK WALL WITH THE BRAKE STILL PULLED. NOT ONLY DID IT DRIVE BACKWARDS ON A VERY BUSY ROAD IT MADE A LEFT HAND TURN OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND THEN AGAIN AT THE LIGHT WHERE IT RAN INTO THE WALL. LUCKY FOR EVERYONE IT WAS A GOOD DRIVER AND DID NOT HIT ANYONE OR ANY CAR. TWO MEN WHO RECOVERED THE JEEP WHERE SHOCKED TO FIND NO ONE IN IT. *TR
