Since we purchased this car, it has unexpectedly completely shut down while driving. This has happened approximately 20 times. Last year, it was towed to a dealership in the sheepshead bay area of brooklyn, new york. We were told that it was a safety feature that shut the engine down while driving if the vehicle was low on oil. It was not as ascertained by that dealership. This "safety feature" has put my family's life in imminent danger as this has happened while driving 60mph on the grand central parkway and belt parkway in new york. On Sunday, may 26, 2019, my son was driving with 4 people in this car and once again it shut down while traveling 55mph. Fortunately, he was able to exit the highway before he was rear ended avoiding tragedy. He proceeded to drive to a friend's house on 168th street in manhattan while utilizing city streets. The car randomly shut down 6 more times before reaching safety. I will not allow anyone in my family to drive this unsafe vehicle. It was towed to the Chrysler Jeep dealership on hylan blvd. In staten island, new york. We were informed that it will not even be evaluated for another week to 10 days. Chrysler does not provide rentals nor does my insurance company allow rentals unless the auto was in an accident. I have researched and asked a friend who has the same exact model and year. It is happening to her, too. I am appalled that this problem is associated with supposed low oil in the engine. My son had the oil changed 4 days prior to this latest incident. It is frightening to think that even when this car is allegedly repaired once again, that my son will be driving this car from staten island, new york, to the canarsie section of brooklyn, new york. Please advise what steps should be taken. I would like to terminate the lease in anyway possible.

Since I've had my car the main screen with maps, weather, radio, etc. Has shut off randomly, my speakers have turned up to the max they could go all by themselves without letting me turn anything off, the weather constantly pops up after I've cleared it. All of this was fixed with replacing the whole screen. But then after the system would not save my setting for the first 5 times I started it back up. I had to keep saving them. It has had multiple issues, I've had to get different tires replaced at least 3-4 times and air leaks, the last being because the belt broke in them. I have an appointment to get my front usb replaced because it randomly stopped working. I've had to get other parts replaced that control my driving and now it won't start. The lights, radio, gauges, etc. All work but the gauges make a tick sound but the engine won't start. There has been two times that it says my car is running but the engine isn't on. I've had my side lights that come on when I turn randomly not work but I'm not sure if that is something I'm doing. I have to read the manual more.

I see an existing recall that matches all the issues my car has been having and yet my car is not on the recall. I would like to test that the recall did not include all the cars that it should have. (not the airbag recall) my car has stalled a couple times while driving slowly and I notice a strange shift issue in my car. When I bought my car they told me that the timing belt felt different than the other cars I had driven and that it was more up to date. I believe that my car had an issue from the beginning.

The vehicle jerks on acceleration or loses power and the engine bucks and sputters while in motion. When rolling up windows while stationary the lights dim or engine sputters. This has happened off and on for the past two years. Only recently has is scared me because I was about to pull out into oncoming traffic. I was told by the dealership in chantilly, va there is nothing wrong with my engine. My passenger seatbelt gets stuck after being engaged. I had it replaced in fall 2012 at a dealership in woodbridge, va. I still have this issue and the new dealership will not replace it because it already was in 2012.

Vehicle transmission would jerk or bump hard enough for seat belt tension system to jerk you into the seat. Would mostly happen at a constant 30 mph or lower such as a school zone. Although would also happen at higher speeds on acceleration such as on ramp or passing another vehicle. After a few weeks of this and after a touch screen safety update to keep the display from flashing full brightness at night, the vehicle was slowing down to turn into private entry of work (gate that requires rfid badge) and shut off completely in middle of the road without warning. Vehicles had to swerve out of the way to miss from hitting us at only 3500 miles on the vehicle. Lucky we were only doing around 20 miles an hour and had our blinker on. The tech that took 22 days to work on the motor of the vehicle and told us the motor turned it self off after the vehicle oil pressure dropped to 5 psi due to a plastic part in engine clogging. I asked why the low oil pressure light did not come on and he said it is not designed to come on until 3 psi and it will never show cause the engine is suppose to turn off first. This is a big safety issue you have a vehicle that can turn off without warning on low oil level or low oil psi. On nearly any other vehicle on the market if you have an 18 wheeler coming up behind you at high speed and going to hit you and you hear a ding and see you have low oil you can speed up and get to a safe distance to pull over or pull over right then and turn off the motor to keep from messing it up. Jeep has decided that their motor is worth more then the life of the people driving them. You should have a choice for when the vehicle turns itself off in order to be able to drive it safely and to be able to make informed choices. You have low battery alert low fuel alert to let you know when it make turn off and why but they designed it to turn off without alerts.

The airbag light goes on intermittently while driving because of the driver seat belt sensor issues per the mechanic. Also, the passenger seat recline lever broke right off, so we can no longer recline. More importantly, the car sometimes won't even start. Dashboard panel just remains black, and the engine does not even turn over. Just silent. After waiting a few moments, it starts perfectly. Mechanics don't know.
