1 Engine Stall problem

Failure Date: 10/31/2018

I was driving on an expressway keeping up with traffic when my engine just stalled. Luckily, I was in the outside lane and was able to coast to the shoulder. This has happened before. The first time, the dealer updated the software. The second time, the dealer replaced the power train module. In fact, the day I got it back from the dealer, it stalled again going about 25 mph. Then, the dealer calibrated the throttle. I was told if it happens again, call them and they will have it towed. This is what I did. It was at the shop the next day and they stated it started right up. They are keeping it there and will be driving it with hopes of duplicating the problem. I am lucky that I was able to coast the the shoulder and not get rear ended by another vehicle.

3 Engine Stall problem

Failure Date: 01/10/2016

My Jeep engine stalled completely. I was taking off from a stop light on a 4 lane highway and it stalled with no warning. I was able to roll to a side road. I waited 5 mins and I was ablet to start it back up, replaced what I thought was the battery. 3 days later was on a busy interstate in downtown miami and it completely stalled again. In the middle of a busy 6 lane highway, I was very lucky to get through the traffic and roll into the median. I waited 5 minutes and was able to start it again. Drove directly to dealership that said it will take weeks to fix. Also have issue with lurching transmission at between 1500 to 1600 rpm. It clunks into the next gear. Also, getting electrical issues with cigarrete lighter. When using a charger in cigarrete lighter the radio does not work, it becomes just static.
