I was exiting I65 S to I85 North at 40 mph as I came out of the ramp the engine stalled. The ignition switch and all of the lights and gauges continued to read accurately. I coasted to the shoulder and restarted the vehicle. It immediately started, and ran normally. This could have been a bad situation if there had been heavy traffic at the time. The Jeep was due for its first service trip, so it went to the dealer on May 9, 2007. The incident was reported to the dealer, who reported that the vehicle stalled as it went into the shop. The technician stated that he felt he had struck the key while moving the vehicle and this caused the stalling. This could be true. However, I am only 5' 3" tall and even if I had the seat all of the way forward with the front of the seat adjusted all of the way up, it was virtually impossible for the knee to hit the key. These two incidents were the only ones that I have experienced, but I felt there was a systemic problem.
