The 2007 Jeep Wrangler unlimited x, otherwise known as the jk, lost engine power twice while driving 55 mph, and the electrical and engine shut off for 3-5 seconds and came back on. The electronic throttle for the gas pedal went into the default mode, where it won't go over 45 mph ,and the traction control shut off at this time also. This happened while driving at 55-60 mph. Also, the compass shut off also at a different time. Each time I had to pull off the road and restart the Jeep , and every thing worked again.

I was involved in an accident on 7/31/03. I depressed the brake in a hard manor but since the gas pedal is so close to the brake, my foot was half on the brake and half on the gas pedal. I checked other makes and models and they have more distance between the brake and the gas pedal. This seems to be indicitive of Chrysler products. I have been driving for over 24 years and have a very good driving record. Not once in all those years has this happened. This is the second time in two months this has now happended to me. I purchase my Jeep just two months ago. Please check the spacing of the break and gas pedals for yourselves.
