Stability control goes out at 70+ mph over any deviation in the road surface and not just a major bump. I lose control of the Jeep completely and have to take my foot of the gas and then it will right itself. This is a threat to life and safety and for a four year vehicle should not be happening. Also, all the electrical components went out and the fuel gauge goes down and up randomly, the stability control lights come on and off which terrify me and I am shaken to the core as I don't want to lose control of the vehicle as I have for the past weeks at 3 or 4 times a week on average! the speedometer goes down to 5 mph then back up to 66mph then back down and my headlight lamps flickered on and off all at the same time. All fuses are intact and secure. Then the Jeep would start and I checked the fuses and made sure they were secure and it started again. I need help and am fearful for my life using this Jeep and have only had it a year. This should not be happening to a 4 yo vehicle. Please assist me. Thank you for your time.

Signal safety: My complaint is the poor design and serious safety flaw of the front-end side markers on all 2007 to present day, Jeep jk/U Wrangler models. Although these vehicles have lighted front-end side markers, they do not have a turn indicator feature installed, creating a serious hazard to drivers when changing lanes, merging into traffic, or simply turning. Other vehicles and/or pedestrians that are along either side of the vehicle and are unable to visually see the rear or front of the vehicle, have no indication of the driver's intentions when performing any of the actions mentioned earlier. Although federal and most state laws require lighted front and rear warning/signal indicators, I am unsure what is required for side/abeam signals. This is the first modern vehicle I have owned that does not include this simple safety feature and it is one that should, similar to [euro] repeaters, be on all U.S. driven automobiles and trucks to avoid collision, or possibly loss of human life.

Vehicle, in motion, on highways, and streets, shuts off. The lights go out, sometimes the radio turns off, the steering goes out, the gauges fall to zero...then, the battery light comes on, and the engine begins operating as usual. It feels as though someone has turned off the key and then turned the key back on.
