| Gasoline Fuel System problems |
Vehicle shuts down, engine stalls while driving, also does not start or difficulty starting, seems to lack adequate power. . After several attempts, will not work properly. Let vehicle sit, "cool down", able to start again, system ok. . No dashboard system warnings. I was on interstate 81 south and failure happened. Also, this same failure occurred at 15,000 miles. Todays failure at 30,221 is the second occurrence. Vehicle was towed to scranton Dodge Jeep service tonight. Will await vehicle service from dealer.
I am filing this now for July 09 due to the same issue that happened yesterday, 4-7-10. . This is not a safe vehicle and Jeep needs to fix this problem. It is unsafe when a vehicle gives no warning and completely shuts off on an interstate. Also, please see my safety complaint odi # 10324403 for the 4-7-10 incident. In July 09, after going through a toll at exit 67 barneget toll , garden state parkway,NJ, I accelerated to the merge point and vehicle shut down and engine stalled and lost power. Several attempts to restart didn't work. Seems like it shut down electrically and was not getting gas adequately. Seems to lack adequate power. Attempt to start several times with no luck, engine wouldn't stay running, long start-up inconsistent, dash lights did come on to inform of no power. Let sit to cool down vehicle and was able to start and move to a more safer location. This was the first occurrence and the temperature outside was 90 f and sunny. This occurred at 15000 miles in July 09. Vehicle went to 3 service visits and dealers could not repeat.
