Four problems related to ignition switch have been reported for the 2007 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a Wrangler built in 9/06 and purchased in 11/06. It has a stalling issue while driving, it has had all the recalls and flashes done to the computer as well as the dealership replacing the ignition switch stating that was the cause of the stalling. I have also filed 2 other complaints with this org. On this. . #10192506 on 6/5 and #10204419 on 9/28. While driving tonight at a steady 70 mph. The engine cut out, stalled then re-started ! luckily my pregnant wife was not in the car. I have had this happen before numerous times. The vehicle went in for the last recall on this, and this is the third time it has stalled since the "fix" and this is the second time it has happened at night on the highway. . . I think anyone would believe a vehicle stalling and losing lights at night doing @70mph is very dangerous. All I want is a vehicle that I can depend on, I will state again I purchased this vehicle brand new and the engine is still stalling while driving, and this is the 3rd time since the manufactures recall computer "flash fix" . I would appreciate some help!.
2007 Jeep Wrangler. Has had the engine stall issue, in for TSB on this issue-vehicle was repaired. Dealership then later said it was stalling due to ignition switch after a few more stalling incidents. They replaced the switch, then manufacturer issued a recall in July for this issue, the recall was done. Today 9/27 the exact stall while driving happened again, vehicle shuts down when driving, losing all power/lights/steering/brakes.
On four occasions since purchasing the vehicle, while driving at highway speeds, the engine has stalled and all of the electrical components lost power for about 1. 5 to 2 seconds. Everything then returned to normal operation. When this occurs, all of the dash lights come on as though the ignition key was in the "on" position, as it is just before starting the car, then all returned to normal. This is a frightening experience at highway speeds. Should a driver be in the midst of an emergency maneuver during one of these occurrences, a serious accident can happen. This first happened in December , and the dealer where the vehicle was purchased replaced the ignition switch, but this has happened three additional times, the last being the date listed on this complaint. The service department at the dealership has been notified and the service representative has informed me that he noted all four reported incidents in the computer system.
