LUCKILY ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WHILE ON A SMALL ROAD .

WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE STALLS, ESSENTIALLY CUTTING MY POWER STEERING AND HAVE LITTLE CONTROL OVER VEHICLE. HAPPENS ON FREEWAY AND IN CITY STREETS AND STOP LIGHTS

THE CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING IT DOWN THE ROAD AT MORE THEN 20MPH AND IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT DOES IT WITH NO LIGHT OR ANY INDICATION THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. I BELIEVE IT'S COMPLETELY ELECTRICAL BUT I'M TAKING IT IN TO THE MECHANICS TOMORROW. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY WHEN IT STALLED ON ME THANKFULLY I WAS ON THE SLOW LANE AND WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE BUT NOT BEFORE SOMEONE ALMOST REAR ENDING ME.

MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS INDICATE THE VEHICLE ROUTINELY LOST CONTACT WITH ANTI-LOCK BRAKE MODULE, WHEEL DISTANCE, AND SPEED WHILE BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

WHEN IT IS READY TO SHIFT BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR WITH FOOT ON PEDAL STEADY IT WILL PAUSE LIGHT WILL COME ON THEN WHEN IT GETS CAUGHT UP IT WILL SHOT U FORWARD.IT DOES THIS MOST OFTEN WHEN PULLING ON TO HIGHWAY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 39683 ON MILLAGE

THE CAR SLOWS DOWN AND LOOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING. IT ALSO SHUTS IT SELF OFF EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THIS JEEP.

AT THE FIRST INSTANCE OF THE ENGINE STALLING, THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, BUT SLOWING TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. THE NEXT INSTANCE OF THE VEHICLE STALLING, IT WAS STOPPED. THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN, BUT TRIED TO RESTART ON ITS OWN. AFTER RESETTING THE IGNITION KEY, AND WAITING ABOUT 3 MINUTES, THE VEHICLE STARTED...AND REMAINED IN A RUNNING STATE UNTIL WE ARRIVED AT HOME. THE NEXT TIME THE VEHICLE WAS USED, IT WAS STARTED VIA THE KEY FOB. IT STARTED, AND WITHIN 15 SECONDS, THE CAR SHUT DOWN. LATER THAT DAY, WE TOOK IT TO A VALVOLINE OIL CHANGE FACILITY, WHERE THEY CHECKED FOR ENGINE CODES VIA THE OBD PORT. AND ERROR OF "CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR" WAS NOTED. LATER THAT DAY, WHILE PULLING IN TO A PARKING LOT, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ATTEMPTED A RESTART ON ITS OWN. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES, THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (AT AROUND 60 MPH), THE ENGINE STALLED AND ATTEMPTED A RESTART 4 TIMES (ON ITS OWN). IT RESTARTED, AND STAYED THAT WAY FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP HOME. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, THERE IS A RECALL (S89) ON THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE, BUT THE DATE OF MANUFACTURE IS OUT OF RANGE WITH OUR VEHICLE, OR DOES NOT APPLY TO THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE VERSION (WHICH WE HAVE).

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYING ON "GAS CAP NOTIFICATION" NEW AFTERMARKET GAS CAP STILL SAME NOTIFICATION...DRIVING AT 55MPH OR JUST IDLING VEHICLE JUST SHUTS OFF ?SOMETIMES IT WILL RESTART WHILE DRIVING BUT WILL DIE AGAIN...HAVE TO TRY TO PULL OFF ROAD TO AVOID TRAFFIC WHEN POSSIBLE...HAVE TO PUT IN PARK & WAIT FOR ALL CHIMES TO RING THEN TRY STARTING AGAIN...VERY SCARY WHEN YOU CAN'T LEAVE FROM A STOP SIGN OR COME TO NO POWER SITUATION ON A BUSY HIGHWAY...DON'T GET ON INTERSTATE SINCE THIS STARTED!! *TR
