2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 Complaints

I HAD NO PREVIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE STALLING. THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING WITH NO NOTICABLE DIFFERENCE THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT. I WAS PULLING OFF FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I FELT THE POWER FROM THE ENGINE CUT OUT. I LOOKED AT MY INSTRUMENTS AND THE TACH DROPPED TO ZERO AND ALL THE INSTRUMENT LIGHTS WENT OUT. NO MORE THAN ONE TO TWO FULL SECONDS LATER ALL OF THE INSTRUMENT LIGHTS CAME ON AND WENT THROUGH THE NORMAL SEQUENCE LIKE THE VEHICLE WAS JUST STARTED. THE ENGINE CAME BACK TO LIFE AND THE VEHICLE RAN AS THOUGH THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT DID NOT STORE A CODE IN THE COMPUTER AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PRBLEM. I HAVE HAD NO OTHER FAILURES. I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE OF THE FAILURE, BUT I AM SURE I HAVE A COPY OF THE SERVICE RECORD IN MY GLOVE BOX FROM WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. I WILL BE HAPPY TO COOPERATE WITH ANY INVESTIGATION AND PROVIDE THE DOCUMENTATION IF NEEDED.

RUNNING VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEED (60 MPH), VEHICLE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY, LEADING TO LOSS IN STEERING AND BRAKING. ENGINE RPM'S WENT TO ZERO. ABOUT 4 SECONDS LATER, VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP AT NORMAL OPERATING RPM'S FOR SPEED AND GEAR SELECTION (6 TH GEAR, 60 MPH, 2600 RPM). *TR

VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEEDS UNDER LOW ENGINE LOAD. ONE OCCURRENCE WAS PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. THROTTLE BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE, ENGINE BOGS DOWN AND STALLS. *TR

2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA. STALLED AT 2,700 MILES WHILE TRAVELING 45 MPH ON A 4 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY. VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF INCLUDING POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WHILE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN. WAS FORCED TO MOVE VEHICLE WHILE STILL ROLLING INTO GRASS MEDIAN. VEHICLE "REBOOTED" 30 SECONDS LATER WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING (I.E. TURNING OFF OR ON) AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AWAY. LUCKILY THERE WAS NOT HEAVY TRAFFIC AS I HAD NO MEANS TO STOP QUICKLY AND THE GRASS SLOWED ME DOWN IN THE MEDIAN. TOOK TO DEALER AND SUPPOSEDLY "FLASHED THE PCM MODULE" AS MY WARRANTY RECEIPT SAYS. THE JEEP HAS NOW AGAIN STALLED AT 3,800 MILES YESTERDAY WHILE GOING 35 MILES AN HOUR DOWN MY STREET. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 07 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH 3,400 MILES ON IT AT 65 MPH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MOMENTARILY CUT OUT THEN ALL LIGHTS CAME ON, CHIMES STARTING GOING, AND HORN WAS HONKING FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN EVERYTHING WENT BACK TO NORMAL EXCEPT MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS SUNDAY AND I COULDN'T HAVE THE COMPUTER READ. ON MONDAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS OFF. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4X4. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED ON TWO OCCASIONS. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES AFTER LEAVING THE DEALER THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM ON FOUR OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER HAS NOT DETERMINED THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 20 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16. THE CONSUMER STATED AFTER PAYING $8,000 IN ENGINE PARTS AS OF 6/15/07 THE JEEP STILL WILL NOT RUN. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT DAIMLER-CHRYSLER CONTACTED HER TO OFFER A BUYBACK OR REPLACEMENT. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE REQUESTED THE BUYBACK OPTION AS THE STALL DEFECT IS STILL BEING REPORTED ON THE WEB. AT THE FINAL INSPECTION, THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE DOOR DIDN'T SHUT PROPERLY. UPDATED 07/10/07 *TR

AT APPROXIMATELY 8,100 MILES, WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A SUBDIVISION AT 25 MPH, VEHICLE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. ALSO HAD LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND THE RADIO TURNED OFF. BOTH RETURNED ONCE THE ENGINE RESTARTED. NO ACTION TAKEN ON MY PART, BUT VEHICLE SPEED DID SLOW. TOTAL TIME FROM SHUTDOWN TO RESTART WAS ONE OR TWO SECONDS. HAVE NOT SCHEDULED DEALER SERVICE YET. *TR

ENGINE CUTS OUT AND ALL DASH LIGHTS GO ON. AS SOON AS I REALIZE WHAT IS GOING ON THINGS ARE BACK TO NORMAL.HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE FIRST TIME WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 45 MPH. THE SECOND TIME WAS DOING 70 ON I94 NEXT TO A SEMI TRACTOR. THE THIRD TIME WAS ON AN EXIT RAMP ON I55 IN JOLIET IL. THE LAST TIME WAS ON JUNE 1, 2007 WHILE APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT. IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE DISMISSED IT. TOLD ME THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING. ON THE LAST VISIT THEY SAID "THE CUSTOMER STATES THE ENGINE HESITATES SO BAD HE THINKS IT HAS STALLED THEN WILL SNAP BACK AND WILL ACCELERATE NORMALLY". I WAS VERY FRUSTRATED WHEN I RED THIS BECAUSE IT IS NOT HESITATION IT IS A STALL. THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY DIES. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND IF IT HAPPENS AT THE WRONG TIME OR IF SOMEONE PANICS THE CONSEQUENCES COULD BE DEADLY. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4DR 4WD THAT HAS STALLED TWICE WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 6,000 MILES AND I'VE REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE OCCURRED DURING THE DAY WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 65MPH FOR OVER AN HOUR. THE VEHICLE CUT OUT, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, I LOST POWER STEERING, AND WITHIN 3 SECONDS THE VEHICLE "RE-STARTED" ITSELF ON ITS OWN. THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OCCURRED SEVERAL MONTHS LATER WHILE TRAVELING AT 70MPH FOR OVER AN HOUR. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AT NIGHT AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. ALL THE SUDDEN THE ENGINE CUT OUT, I LOST HEADLIGHTS, AND WITHIN 3 SECONDS THE VEHICLE CAME BACK ON AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AGAIN, I REPORTED TO THE DEALER, AT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. *TR

2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DOOR 6000 MILES. FIRST INCIDENT: SUNNY CLEAR DRY ROAD CONDITIONS. TOOK EXIT RAMP OFF EXPRESSWAY AND WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP AT INTERSECTION THE BRAKES FAILED. PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND JEEP DID NOT STOP. AFTER PUMPING BRAKES WITH NO RESPONSE I HAD TO STOP JEEP BY SHIFTING INTO PARK. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT, WITH BRAKES FUNCTIONING LESS THAN A HALF MILE HOME. I HAD THE JEEP TOWED (COVERED BY WARRANTY) THE NEXT MORNING. DEALER INSPECTED AND TEST DROVE WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO REPEAT PROBLEM. CONCLUSION WAS NO PROBLEM. SECOND INCIDENT: SUNNY CLEAR DRY ROAD CONDITIONS. TOOK EXIT RAMP OFF EXPRESSWAY AND WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP AT INTERSECTION THE BRAKES FAILED. THIS TIME I HELD BRAKES TO FLOOR AND THE BRAKES EVENTUALLY "KICKED-IN" AND STOPPED THE JEEP. THIS TIME I DROVE TO DEALER AND AFTER ANOTHER INSPECTION OF THE JEEP THERE WAS NO PROBLEM FOUND?!? FORTUNATELY, BOTH INCIDENTS DID NOT RESULT IN ANY ACCIDENTS AS I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE JEEP PRIOR TO ENTERING THE INTERSECTION. I'M PRAYING THERE ISN'T A 3RD INCIDENT! *TR
