Wife was driving home at night, was on a fairly straight section of road. Engine quit running with no warning, lights dimmed. A couple seconds later engine restarted, and she came on home. Have not tried to drive it since, been parked in the garage. We have owned this vehicle since new, leased at first, then bought it. Concerned about this, having heard of engines shutting off in other vehicles causing crashes and death or injury. We have not taken the vehicle to be checked yet.

I was driving on the freeway when my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 4.7L just stalled out without any warning. It took about 1 hour to start back up. Then it died about five times after that. My Jeep also stalls out when I'm sitting at a stop light waiting for the light to change than bomb just like that my Jeep stalls out. Most the time I can start it, but some times I can't start my Jeep until the next day. I almost get slammed about 10 times already. I don't feel safe in the Jeep.. I replaced my fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, crankshaft position sensor, camshaft positions sensor, battery, battery terminals, and my oil pressure sensor. Nothing has helped my stalling! nothing! I took my Jeep to 2 different mechanics and they can't figure it out. I also called the Jeep dealership here in albuquerque, New Mexico and I talked to the techs and mechanics and they all said they never seen that before. I call bs on that. If you look on google and type 2000 Jeep stall out, there's 100's even 1,000's of people dealing with the stall out problem. I don't feel safe in my Jeep at all!! I don't even want my 6 year old in the Jeep when I'm driving, sad thing is this is my only car!! please help investigate this problem. Thanks 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 4.7L.

Engine started stalling without any warning while driving at any speed, first occurrence was at about 35mph. Lost power steering, brakes on a sharp curve! dealer found ECM (engine control module or computer bad). That happened the first time in 2010. It has happened again in 6/2013 and now again in 3/2014 except the one of the last two times the car jerked and wouldn't accelerate as we started to pass someone on a 2-lane road. The Jeep jerked, immediately started slowing and then the engine died causing loss of powersteering and power brakes and almost being hit from behind as we were not quite clear of the car we were passing and had no choice but to slow and move back into line behind the slower car ahead of us, as the engine died and two other cars were passing the slower car from behind us almost ran into us!!! then we got the car started, drove about another 3 miles to a business, as we were on a rural road at the time of the incident. The car would die (twice more) and not go over 59 mph or 2600 engine RPM. The dealer and our shop manager says "this is a habitual problem with a lot of Chrysler products...they have poorly made engine control modules, the worst in the auto industry"! the shop manager says "it's a real safety issue that isn't being addressed anywhere!"

Have been noticing vibration of the radiator cooling fan when A/C turned on. While backing out of drive, heard pop noise from engine compartment. Pulled into drive, opened hood and found that radiator fan had disintegrated, piercing radiator shroud and radiator. Holes in radiator (radiator now leaking) and shroud. Called Chrysler recall center and told that this was not covered by recall 06V199000. Am replacing all affected parts and performing service myself. Based on online research this is very common problem with this model and should be included under above mentioned recall.
