THE CAR HAD 1/4 TANK OF GAS AND THE CAR STARTED ACTING LIKE IT WAS RUNNING OUT OF GAS CONSISTENTLY NEAR STALLING WHEN DRIVING. IT FELT LIKE THE CAR HAD A CLOGGED FUEL FILTER. I'VE ALSO HAD THE CAR FULLY STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WHILE DRIVING, ALMOST CAUSING THE CAR BEHIND ME TO REAR-END MY CAR AT LEAST ONE TIME. WHEN I TOOK THIS CAR TO A DEALERSHIP IN LOS ANGELES IN JULY, I WAS TOLD THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WAS THE PROBLEM AND THAT THEY WOULD ORDER THE PART. BECAUSE THE PART DID NOT ARRIVE WHEN SCHEDULED AND THE DATE WAS PUSHED BACK, I CALLED JEEP CORPORATE AND THEY SENT MY CONCERN TO THEIR ESCALATION DEPARTMENT. THEY ARE ANTICIPATING THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE IN MID-OCTOBER; HOWEVER, THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND JEEP HAS BEEN DRAGGING THIS OUT FOR 3 MONTHS NOW. THIS IS THE SECOND ISSUE I'VE HAD WITH THIS CAR AND THE FIRST ISSUE IS NOW RECURRING. AT THE VERY LEAST, I EXPECTED JEEP TO PROVIDE ME WITH A RENTAL CAR BECAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED IN OREGON. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
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
