- Gilbert, AZ, USA
On three separate occasions over the past two months, I have experienced an unanticipated engine stall when decelerating from highway speed in order to make a turn (both right and left). In each of these instances, as I was in the turn (or immediately before), the engine stalled, leaving me without power-assisted steering or brakes. This makes the vehicle difficult to control, as the amount of physical force needed to complete a turn is very substantial. In each instance, after bringing the vehicle under control, I was able to restart it by placing the shift selector in "neutral, " applying pressure to the brake pedal, and pushing the engine start button. While I have sufficient arm strength to have been able to maintain control in each of these instances, it is, at a minimum, a surprising and unexpected event to have steering and brake assist fail simultaneously. A smaller person could easily lose control of the vehicle under these circumstances. I do not know whether, when this occurs, the airbags are disabled, but that may also be a matter of concern.

My wife has contacted the Jeep dealership in fayetteville ar about her brakes not feeling correct and took the Jeep in to get checked and was told no recall had been issued. Within 2 weeks there was a recall however we have been told after the recall came it would be 5-7 business days for the part to come in. We are over two months later with no resolve and not feeling any better over the issue. Multiple phone calls and me going in person to the dealership we are now told sorry we can not tell you how long the wait will be for our part to come in. If there is such a severe issue that is causing fatalities then why is it when someone reports having had issues with the way the brakes felt once applied why is nothing being done at this point" this is our primary vehicle for our family and the news on the recalls is steady getting worse. We understand thousands of people are affected but how long is the final wait going to be? should I be preparing for getting another vehicle so I don't have a death trap going into the winter" we like the vehicle but at this point the issues needs to be resolved in a more timely manner, as to if it will be fixed before a set date or the complete buy back of the vehicle.
