ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
VEHICLE DIES FOR NO APPARENT REASON. HAVE BEEN TOLD IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN EVEN AFTER IT WAS IN THE SHOP FOR THIS PROBLEM. TRANSMISSION JERKS WHEN SHIFTING IN LOW SPEEDS.THIS HAPPENS ON A DAILY BASIS. SERVICE TECHS AT DEALERSHIP HAVE NO ANSWERS FOR THIS PROBLEM. I GET THE FEELING I WILL JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT DYING AND JERKING AS LONG AS I OWN THE JEEP. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE STAYED ON THE DRAWING BOARD JUST A LITTLE LONGER I THINK. *AK
