problem #1

Mar 142013

Grand Cherokee Overland Summit V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 15,000 miles

We have only owned this vehicle for 90 days. This problems has now occurred 4 times, with the most recent occurrence being the worst. The car would not start after the electrical system went absolutely crazy. All interior warning lights were flashing, windshield wipers were going back and forth, bells were dinging and all I tried to do was start the vehicle. It would not start. The dealer apparently cannot help until the problem can be duplicated. We have extended warranty but this does not seem to make a difference to anyone. I am afraid to drive the car very far from home for fear that I get stranded somewhere. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
