The vehicle will not stay started. Took the Jeep to a dealership and was told the part that is needed will not be available until December. Part is called skim module. Part is VIN specific. Is there an alternative? I use this vehicle for work and cannot be without a vehicle for 5 months. I was very disappointed to hear Chrysler cannot repair my vehicle due to a part availability and length of time. I having purchasing Chrysler products for 30 years.

While departing philadelphia airport , entering ramp to access interstate 95, the vehicle lost all power, engine, power steering and brakes would not work. Head lights were still functioning. We physically pushed the vehicle off the highway, so other drivers and municipal bus drivers would stop screaming at us. The vehicle would not start. After calling the police and a tow truck, about 30 minutes later , the vehicle started. We had the vehicle towed to our home 100 miles away in new jersey. The vehicle would start and remain running for about 15 minutes, then would shut down again, same issues. Several sensor codes came up on a readout but nothing has been done to the vehicle. At this point it is functioning, but we are afraid to drive the vehicle. Any help or recall info on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
