While driving or stationary the engine shuts down on me. It starts again after I wait about an hour or more. I bought this car from the original owner in December 2017. She had all the recalls fixed except for the airbag. Since owning this car I have only driven it 3 times. Granted I took a few months to put it on the road as the weather was cold. I've had extensive work done on it. Tune up, new transmission, belts, pumps, coils, hoses and sensors you name it but it continues to shut off on me. I try to take it for a spin but just putting it in reverse it shuts off. Can you please look in to this?

A few instances have occurred where I will be driving and the vehicle engine will immediately shut off as the vehicle is in motion. The electrical components (radio, headlights, dashboard, etc) still function but all gauges stop working. I then have to pull over, put the vehicle in park, and then restart the vehicle. It will then start up right away. On a couple of occasions, the vehicle engine has started back up on its own without me doing anything and drives fine after that. This seems to occur mostly when I release my foot from the accelerator but has happened when I am trying to accelerate. Has only happened when driving on city streets, never on a highway.

I was driving when all of a sudden my vehicle cut off in the middle of traffic. Also, Sunday morning I was driving to church when my vehicle would not start. I was told my a mechanic (not on duty) that it could be my fuel pump, wiring or catalytic converter. Please look into this matter as soon as possible.

The engine cranks and runs fine but after you drive for a while the engine shuts off. It happens while you are driving or coming to a stop. It is random. It usually starts back up and runs fine until next time. When the engine dies, you do not have steering assist or brake assist. It is very hard to steer it off the road. A woman may have a hard time steering it or stopping it. I don't let my wife drive our Jeep much at all. It doesn't matter if you are driving in the city or on the freeway when it decides to shut off. Our Jeep is a 4WD with automatic transmission.

This Jeep had the 4.7L V8 engine. Jeep was running fine, never had any issues with leaking fluids, etc.or any engine issues at all. Went to a friends house for a couple hours and when I went to leave, the vehicle started very rough and had no power - hitting the brake to change gears would stall the engine. Diagnostic testing showed no compression in the first cylinder. I was unable to pay to have my engine torn apart (keep in mind I only had this vehicle for little over a year and still owed over $1000 on something that was not driveable), but from the symptoms it seems this was caused by a dropped valve seat. I have seen numerous complaints on this issue in this engine (in Jeep and other Chrysler vehicles) and am surprised that no recall has been made. I am unsure what would have happened if I was driving at 50 mph when the engine failed.
