2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 Complaints

WHILE DRIVING MY 2 MONTH OLD JEEP WRANGLER 4-DOOR UNLIMITED SAHARA ON THE NJ TURNPIKE DOING 65 MPH THE POWER TO THE CALL TOTALLY SHUT OFF AND ALL ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. I COULD NOT STEER OR BRAKE. AFTER APPROX. 5-10 SECONDS, THE POWER CAME BACK ON WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER (MCDONAGH IN EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ) TWO TIMES AND THEY TOLD ME THEY RAN ALL THE TESTS AND THAT THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THEY DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE NOR REPLACE THE CAR. THE CAR IS 2 MONTHS OLD WITH 5,000 MILES ON IT. *JB

PULLING OUT OF PARKING SPOT JEEP STARTED TO SHUDDER, THEN THE ENGINE QUIT AND ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THE ENGINE RESTARTED AND RESUMED OPERATING NORMALLY. AK

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 JEEP X UNLIMITED W/ AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, BUILD DATE 12/06, ON A LONG TRIP ENGINE HAD BEEN RUNNING FOR 4 HOURS STRAIGHT. APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT AT ABOUT 35 MPH AND ENGINE STALLED. ALL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON AND RADIO CUT OUT. I HAD MY IPOD HOOKED UP TO THE AUXILIARY JACK. HAD OVER 1/4 TANK OF GAS. *AK

TWICE DURING THE FIRST 7400 MILES THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. INCIDENT #1 - I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO TURN INTO DRIVEWAY WHEN THE ENGINE AND ELECTRONICS IN THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF FOR 1-2 SECONDS. WHEN ELECTRICAL POWER WAS RESTORED ALL OF THE INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD ILLUMINATED AS IF I HAD JUST TURNED THE KEY TO THE ON POSITION. THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SO NO FIX WAS ATTEMPTED. INCIDENT # 2 - MY WIFE WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND STAYED OFF. SHE ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT COULD NOT SINCE THE TRANSMISSION WAS STILL IN DRIVE. SHE HAD TO SHIFT INTO PARK IN ORDER TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE THE FOLLOWING MORNING AND WERE ONCE AGAIN TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SO NO FIX WAS ATTEMPTED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER TWICE FOR THIS PROBLEM, AND I HAVE LOST 3 DAYS OF VEHICLE SERVICE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. CHRYSLER SAYS THAT THE DEALER MUST INVESTIGATE AND FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT ALL THE DEALER WANTS TO DO IS CLAIM THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM BECAUSE NO TROUBLE CODES ARE STORED IN THE COMPUTER AND THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IN THE MEANTIME MY WIFE AND I ARE DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT WE FEEL IS UNSAFE DUE TO THE RISK OF LOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE DURING ONE OF THESE INCIDENTS. *AK
