I was told at the dealer I bought it from that all the recalls had been done. I have a service 4-wheel drive light now. The Jeep seems to go into neutral at random times. Right after it is started and driving on the road. This was a used Jeep that I bought in Dec. 2016. Shorty after I bought the Jeep the check engine light came on showing an emission code and then the transmission quit working. The transfer control quit working after they worked on it. I no longer have 4-wheel low or can I put it into neutral. But it seems to shift into neutral at random times. I have no control on if or when it will shift into neutral so I guess at this point I have yard art. The dealer just wants to throw parts at it until its fixed. They claim there is nothing wrong with the Jeep. Or we don't know what could be wrong with the Jeep but we will fix it to the tunes of thousands of $.

When I'm driving while in motion in a straight line all of a sudden my dash lights flicker and my ac stutters on and off and then all power stops and my brakes more or less lock up but not all the way but the engine still runs . . . . I'm not sure if the windows stop working or not but its been happening a few times and it seems like its going to need a tow truck but when I pull over off the highway and turn it off and restart it resets its self my Jeep only has 78,000 miles on it because it was sitting in storage for 6 years while I was out of the states so it did not get driven and the dealership took it and changed all belts fluids and gave it a checkup before I drove it again.
