Was attempting to merge onto a busy freeway and accelerated up to 60mph when the jeep suddenly slammed into second gear and refused to shift. I couldn't get it to do anything other than "limp" very roughly to the shoulder. If people hadn't slowed down i would have been busted from several points. Took it to the local jeep dealership and they told me that it happens with jeep grand cherokees all the time and that…

Vehicle will randomly die while driving. This has happened multiple times and is really dangerous when the vehicle dies going 70 mph on the freeway in heavy traffic. Once the vehicle dies it is easily restarted once stopped and then drives like nothing has happened. The vehicle shows no symptoms of this problem and it can not be duplicated but rather happens randomly. My mechanic can not find a solution as the…

My jeep will just shut off while driving. It is not soon after starting so the engine is not cool. It has happened on the interstate twice without warning. There is not hesitation or sputtering, you just feel you are decelerating and then you realize you have no acceleration or power steering or brakes. I was in the far left lane and extremely worried i would not be able to safely make it over to the shoulder. Other…
