DASH STARTED FLASHING AND BEEPING AND LOST POWER. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME THAT COST$471.30. TALKED TO MOPAR THEY GAVE ME DEALERSHIP INFORMATION SAID THEY COULD GET ME A TOW AND LOANER CAR. I CALLED JEEP DEALERSHIP IN RAPID CITY, SD THEY SAID THEY "WONT COME GET IT OR GIVE ME A LOANER CAR BUT THE BRING IT BY ANYTIME THIS WEAK BECAUSE THEY USUALLY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING."SO NOW IM AND HOUR AWAY WITH NO WAY TO WORK AND NO WAY TO GET JEEP TO RAPID BECAUSE OF FIRST TOW BILL.. THE MALFUNCTIONING PART HAS BEEN RECALLED ON MY 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE.

WHEN FILLING UP MY JEEP WITH GAS THE FILLER NECK OVER FLOWS EVERY SINGLE TIME AND I HEARD THE COUNTERPARTS ON THE DODGE DURANGO IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND THERE IS A RECALL ON THEM FIXING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A HUGE ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD AND SINCE OTHER JEEP OWNERS I KNOW WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

JEEP OCCASIONALLY STALLS ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE GOING OVER 60 MPH. IT CAN'T BE RESTARTED WHILE IN NEUTRAL. MUST PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND PUT IT IN PARK. IT STARTS IMMEDIATELY ONCE IN PARK. IT HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES OVER THE LAST 18 MONTHS. NO ERROR CODES. DEALER CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, IT WILL COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN EVEN WHEN GOING 65 MPH ON A HIGHWAY. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES ON BOTH LOCAL ROADS AND HIGHWAY. I WILL HAVE TO COAST OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION AND THEN RESTART THE CAR. IT IS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM NUMBER 08V059000 BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. MECHANICS CANNOT FIND ISSUE.

THE ENGINE IS STALLING SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING IN HIGHWAY. ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS SHUT DOWNS AFTER THIS OCCURS. OTHER GRAND CHEROKEE HAVE RECEIVED RECALLS FOR THE SAME ISSUE (CONTROL MODULES) BUT NOT FOR MY VIN NUMBER. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE.

VEHICLE DOES NOT START AND SHUTS OFF IGNITION MODULE OR IGNITION KEY (FOBIK) IS NOT FUNCTIONING THERE WAS A RECALL 14V567000 BUT THE DEALER SAID THERE NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AND ACCORDING TO THE RECALL IT PERTAINS TO VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN MAY OF 08 AND MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN MAY OF 08
