Jeep will stall while driving. Engine will shut off, lose power steering, cannot accelerate to try to get out of harms way, battery, oil and engine light will come on and receive a message saying to "shift to park or neutral to start the vehicle". If you want a couple minutes the Jeep struggle to turnover but eventually will. This is extremely dangerous and this vehicle needs to be recalled immediately!!!! this is a major safety issue!!! it has happened to me 6 times in the past 3 weeks. It happens while driving and occurs without warning on any street or highway, turning or braking.
I was at an intersection stopped yesterday and my 2017 Jeep Cherokee limited lost all power steering, and brakes. Dashboard flashed �car must be in neutral or park to shift gears� and wouldn't go forward, started rolling backwards until I pulled the emergency brake. Turned off the car to try to reset it and took a long time to turn over. Went out with it again this morning and same thing but going about 20mph. This is completely unsafe as I have no control over the car!!!!.
