i was previously in a bad car accident and took almost 3 years to drive again!! i bought this car and it was my first BIG car buy like from a dealership so that i could get a good truck and be at ease with being okay to drive again. when i got the jeep i liked it, i felt safe and high enough to were my anxiety for driving wasnt as bad but since i got it ive had alot of stalling and turning off problems. its left me stranded or it suddenly shakes all crazy and turns off. I'll try to start it and it will just stall and go crazy and just shut off and yesterday. i drove up to my house and it just shut off and i didn't even have it in park!! it was so scary i just dont even feel safe driving it anymore i get so paranoid! i thought i was gonna be alot better getting a brand new car but its been horrible!! i cant ever just say i wanna take a drive out of town or state cause im constantly thinking if my truck will even make it to work. i work night shifts so i feel so scared driving and i try not to drive so much with my daughter cause i never know what the truck will do next! its an awful feeling and the dealership just keeps it for 24 hours and gives it back but NOTHING HAS CHANGED! i've taken it in like 3 times already

i cant believe dealerships are so money hungry and once you drive off they wipe there hands of you and allow you to drive like that. and i continuously tell them i don't feel safe or comfortable and yet they don't try to help me.
