Car Stall Problems of Jeep Liberty - part 1

My vehicle is a 6 yr old low mileage chevy equinox the stabilitrak light came up as well as the service power streering. It has also lost power in the highway and stalls or won't accelerate at times which makes is very dangerous since I could get hit by someone in the highway. I have taken it to the dealership and they have replaced o then sensor which cost me $400 but not fixed I took it to another mechanic and they replaced some fuses and sensors another $500 still not fixed. The car is now bach at the dealership and it has been a few days. This seems to be. Very common problem with the equinox as I have spoken to a few people who own one and they just ended up trading their car. I don't want another car payment and for a 6 year old car with low mileage this is not normal.

I purchased my Jeep Liberty on 1/7/14 and in the first 3 days the car began to stall while driving. It first happened going at slower speeds (15-20mph) and then happened to me going down a busy road at over 45 mph. The engine completely turns off and power steering fails. Luckily I did not cause any accidents. I immediately contacted the dealer (carmax in orlando FL) and notified them of the issue. I brought my Jeep in for repairs and multiple repairs were done to the engine, suspension etc. I picked up my Jeep up on 1/22/14 and was told all repairs needed had been taken care of. I began my commute to work and got there safely. When I went to lunch on my break once again at a red light my Jeep stalled. And then again another . 5 mi down the road going at approx. 20 mph. I would like to know what is the concern that is being addressed with this problem that multiple people are having with their vehicles. So at least I can tell my mechanic what I would liked fixed when it goes back into the maintenance dept. Please help.

Since purchase of 2004 Jeep Liberty in sept 08, I've had a "hiccup" when idling. It's also stalled a few times and not started twice. Four garages and two Jeep dealers later I was advised there is a slight miss in the cylinder. After spending over $300 in pre maintenance(new plugs which I had just replaced in Dec and a DE-carb) the engine is now hesitating and the problem is still there. Advised that I would have to pay again to have it looked at. I've spent $1700 in 10 months already. I'm tired of the lack of customer service - traded it in for a pontiac.
