ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
OUR JEEP CONTINUES TO STALL WHILE BEING DRIVEN, MAKING IT VERY UNSAFE AS THE POWER STEERING AND POWER ASSISTED BRAKES STOP WORKING WHEN THE ENGINE STALLS. THIS IS THE SUBJECT OF SEVERAL RECALLS, MOST RECENTLY V62/NHTSA 19V-813 ISSUED A YEAR AGO. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS FAULT WITH OUR JEEP. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE STALLS SINCE 2015 FAILED RECALL AND THEY CONTINUE TO THIS DATE, ALWAYS WHILE BRAKING AND MOSTLY WHILE ALSO TURNING TO THE RIGHT. *LN*JB

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 40 MPH. LOST ABILITY TO STEER AS POWER STEERING QUIT WORKING. THERE IS A YEAR-OLD RECALL TO FIX FUEL PUMP RELAY PROBLEMS BUT FCA, THE MANUFACTURER, HAS YET TO PROVIDE DEALERS WITH THE PARTS NEEDED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AS WE HAVE CONTINUED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE SINCE WE DO NOT HAVE, NOR CAN WE AFFORD, ANOTHER VEHICLE. PLEASE PRESSURE FCA/JEEP TO PROVIDE PARTS TO DEALERS IMMEDIATELY. RECALL # V62/NHTSA 19V-813.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE I LOST ALL ENGINE POWER, I NO LONGER HAD CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT AT THE TIME AND GOING AT A RELATIVELY SLOW RATE OF SPEED SO I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN. I TRIED TO START THE CAR AGAIN AND IT DID START ON IT'S OWN. THE CAR CONTINUALLY STALLS DURING START UP AND HAS NOW STARTED TO STALL AND SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. I BROUGHT IT TO AN AUTO BODY SHOP WHERE THEY INFORMED ME I HAD A FAULTY FUEL PUMP WHICH I THEN DISCOVERED WAS RECALLED BY JEEP. WHEN I TRIED TO BRING THE JEEP TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER TO HAVE IT REPAIRED THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART, IT HAD NOT BEEN MADE AVAILABLE TO THEM. THIS WAS THE SAME WITH 2 OTHER DEALERSHIPS I CALLED. I ALSO CALLED THE CORPORATE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD THE PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST ME WITH A RENTAL OR LOANER VEHICLE WHILE WAITING FOR THE PART. (RECALLRELATED INCIDENT) TS

SERVICE BRAKES, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH ON A TRADITIONAL TWO LANE COUNTRY ROAD. AS I APPROACHED A LEFT HANDED TURN, I PRESSED THE BREAK PEDAL AND INSTANTANEOUSLY LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BREAKS. THE VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AND DROVE OFF THE ROAD INTO A SMALL GRASS FIELD. AFTER COMING TO A STOP, I LOOKED AT THE DASH AND REALIZED THE TACHOMETER SHOWED 0 RPM INDICATING THE ENGINE HAD STALLED. AT FIRST, I WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE SHIFTER WAS STILL IN DRIVE. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED WITH NO HESITATION ONCE THE SHIFTER WAS MOVED TO PARK. THE P54 RECALL HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN COMPLETED. FCA HAS BEEN INFORMED AND THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A JEEP DEALER. THE RECALL FOR V62 IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT AND THE VEHICLE HAS SINCE RECEIVED THE TEMPORARY INTERIM REPAIR. I HAVE DECIDED TO PARK THE VEHICLE UNTIL FCA CAN REASSURE THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

ENGINE
ONLY 79,000 MILES AND DEALERSHIP STATES I NEED TO REPLACE CAMSHAFT AND LIFTERS. REPAIR COSTS MORE THAN VEHICLE IS WORTH. ALL MAINTENANCE AND OIL CHANGES WERE DONE. SEARCHING ONLINE REVEALS HOW COMMON THIS PROBLEM, THE MANUFACTURERS DEFECTS AND THE FACT THAT FCA WILL NOT ADMIT OR ASSIST OWNERS. NO PROPERLY MAINTAINED ENGINE SHOULD FAIL AT 79,000 MILES.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THIS COMPLAINT IS IN REGARDS TO SAFETY RECALL V62 WHERE THE FUEL PUMP RELAY CAUSES A STALL WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. MY CAR HAS REGULARLY BEEN STALLING WHILING I'M DRIVING IN TRAFFIC FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH FCA SEVERAL TIMES TELLING THEM OF THE RISK I AM IN ON A DAILY BASIS AND ASKING ABOUT WHEN PARTS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE FOR THIS RECALL. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL HAS COME OUT WITH NO PROGRESS. THE STALLING HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS AND HAS PUT ME IN HARMS WAY EVERY TIME I DRIVE; I AM CONSTANTLY MANEUVERING TO AVOID A COLLISION AND THE ONLY REASON AN ACCIDENT HASN'T HAPPENED YET IS BECAUSE OF HOW OVER DEFENSIVE I HAVE TO BE WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. FCA EVEN TRIED DOING A TEMPORARY FIX BUT THE CAR STALLED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THIS ATTEMPT. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND OTHERS WHENEVER I'M OPERATING THIS VEHICLE. NOTE, BELOW YOU ASKED FOR A DATE OF WHEN THIS HAPPENED; IT HAPPENS ALMOST DAILY FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. I PUT TODAY'S DATE BECAUSE THIS IS THE MOST CURRENT DATE THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AND NEARLY MISSED BEING HIT BY A CAR COMING UP BEHIND ME AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I AM STILL SHAKING FROM THE NEAR MISS OF BEING HIT AND SERIOUSLY INJURED.
