    My husband and i were traveling to charleston, sc on i-26 to have a nice valentine's weekend. Everything was fine until we merged onto i-26 in columbia, sc, when we felt a small jolt in the truck like it was hesitating or something. So we dismissed it as maybe bad gas or something. It happened a couple more times and as we were passing a rest area outside of orangeburg, sc in the left lane going with the flow of…

    I took ownership of the vehicle in december 2013. While driving, the vehicle engine has suddenly shut down on three separate occasions. The first time was in january 2014 in heavy highway traffic near colorado springs at about 50mph. I was able to move to the shoulder and turned the key off then restarted the engine. There seemed to be no adverse effects thereafter so i thought it was a random event. Then one week…

    When stopped at a stop light on a very congested road. I pressed the accelerator to proceed when the light turned green. I experienced a slow sluggish start so i pressed the accelerator further to the floorboard, there was no response by the engine. Car proceeded at a slow rate of speed (10 mph with rpm's at 2500). I had to pull off to the side of the road and restart car which did somewhat fix the problem. I have…

    The vehicle shuts down without any warning while driving. Extremely dangerous!! It's the second time it happened in the last 6 years, and it seems to happen when it is cold outside. (in freezing temperature). Luckily, no one was around when the problems occurred, but if it had happened in a crowded area, an accident is imminent. Exactly the same symptom as what was reported under nhtsa id number: 10555411 (this is a…

    I purchased my jeep a little over a year ago used. I have had numerous problems since i have purchased it. First it was thought to be an electrical problem since the car would randomly shutter, would not want to start or just turned off. Battery was replaced multiple times, since it would leave stranded at any given time. The engine light comes on, but there has not been a solution to what it can be. I feel very…
