The inspection recall on my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee did nothing to fix the problem with pcm and catalytic converter specified in the defective issue within the recalls issued. This harms the driver, pedestrians, other passengers and motorists. The tech where I went to have recall work performed ordered parts (see attachment), but nothing was installed on my vehicle. Only "inspected. " the tech was told of detailed poor performance and symptoms of a bad pcm. Such as shifting, stalling, fuel economy & hard to start. The Jeep is not operating optimally & this could mean there are. Other problems between different systems. All of these are indications of a faulty pcm. As well as the abs light being on the dashboard. The pcm is a "critical" system & needs to be replaced. I'm requesting that you fix this problem for free, as it is defective and could mingle with other systems and cause a complete vehicle break down. Or refund the cost to me in full, including labor charges, if I replace/repair myself. If this defective part is not fixed, it could result in property damage, in which cdj would be liable for. Please advise as to how you can help enforce the manufacture to fully repair these defective parts & remedy this problem on fixing the faulty pcm & catalytic converter within a recall and possibly the abs system and transmission. The vehicle stalls on highway, in park, on the street, when stopped and then it stalls out and is hard to start. It also has not been able to go in reverse ( back up). Which mean it's not getting proper lubrication. Also, the alarm goes off when using key to gain access. Unhooking battery to reset does not help.
Car usually runs fine cold but when it gets to operating temperature it stalls unexpectedly and in dangerous moments while driving on any road or freeway at any speed. I lose all powered functions like steering and brakes. It won't start again for hours until it has cooled all the way down.

Being that recall number: n45 was (and is) incomplete,ie, there are no parts /oem trailer hitch available at local dealers; I purchased and had installed one. Shortly thereafter, I submitted receipt and proof of purchase for reimbursement. This has been to no avail. Its questionable if there are sincere concerns about the safety recall.

Engine shudders and stalls while I'm driving down the road. This has happened several times. Have to try to pull over out of traffic. It usually starts back after a few minutes of turning engine over. It may run a few miles and then same thing happens again. I have had several close calls with getting hit from behind. Also, steering shuts down. Hard to maneuver out of traffic. Have had it checked with diagnostics. Nothing shows up. Has fuel filter changed anyway, did not help. Had battery, alternator checked, show good. I was astonished to find so much info online that proves this is a very widespread problem that is obviously a manufacturing defect. I am surprised many people have not been harmed by this. I am also very surprised there has been no recall mandated to correct this and insure the safety of the owners of these vehicles, along with the folks on the road that would be involved with a rear end accident. Please update me via email and let me know if there is any pending action or plans to hold the manufacturer responsible for their defect. I basically have a vehicle that is useless and worth nothing because it is not dependable.

Started out to go to work @ 6 am travelled with no issues to the kids sitter's house and then continued on to work on double lane highway speed limit 60 mph. The Jeep started sputter, jerk and eventually died, didn't realize it had died so pulled off to side of road, turn the Jeep back on it kept sputtering, jerking and died again. Finally, it backfired 3 to 4 times and stayed started. Check engine light came on went and had the code read it stated it was the ignition coil and catalyst system. So we changed th ignition coil and catalytic converter, along with the muffler do to the fact the backfiring blew a hole plum through the muffler. Still same problems. Have had several near miss of crashs, and bodily injury. Now it doesn't want to start and you sit on the side of the road like I did for 2 hours before it wanted to start up.

Stalls in the middle of traffic while driving. Almost killed me and my kids today.
My 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited stalls intermittently for no apparent reason and without warning. Normally the car will stall while idling either immediately upon starting or while sitting at an intersection. I have read online where many, many, many people are having the same problem which seems to be extremely difficult for a mechanic to diagnose. I have installed a new starter, distributor cap and wiring with no luck. Many people are very annoyed about having to spend money on mechanics "guesses" and still not getting the problem solved. This stalling problem is obviously very dangerous, especially if it occurs while the vehicle is in motion as it would be very easy to get rear-ended. For this reason, I am afraid to drive my vehicle.

Heater hose jammed accelerator linkage causing runaway vehicle at very high speed. . . Shifted into neutral to avoid collision. . . Brakes were insufficient to stop the vehicle as jamming caused engine rpm's to go very high [approx. 5000 rpm].
