This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I read about the recall on the 2007 Wrangler and nitros. It sounded like the same problem. I had loss of engine power several times, similar to running out of gasoline. Most times it would not stall, but if at slow speeds or at a stop the engine would completely quit. One turn of the key would start it up again. Now that I saw similar symptoms being recalled for another Jeep I wanted to file a formal notice of the problem before I or another person ended up stalling at a traffic light and getting hurt. Please note that the incident date below is when I first had a full stall.
The contact owns a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4X4. While driving 15 mph, the alternator light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact heard a grinding noise, the steering wheel jerked, the brake pedal failed to depress properly, all of the instrument panel lights dimmed, and the turn signals did not work. The failures occurred on two occasions. The dealer was contacted twice and stated that there was a short in the computer module. The vehicle is not drivable. The engine size was unknown. The current mileage is 19,500 and failure mileage was 10,000.
