“I have a 2006 Jeep Laredo 3.6l with 54,000 miles on it. Since may of 2012 it has been nothing but a huge problem. I have contacted Jeep customer care and had a casenumber with them to get the issues resolved, needless to say they fixed half of the issues and then closed the case when the dealership that was working on it was unable to diagnose the other issues. The Jeep will lunge, jerk, and get stuck in 2nd gear at 1.5rphs until you press the gas really hard and it slips gears. …”

NHTSA complaint #10493674, filed 2013-01, 54,000 miles

“I was driving home at dark with my family in this vehicle when the headlights went completely out and everything in the dash went out. This Jeep was recalled last year 2014 for the ignition switch and has to this date not been fixed, I would like to know what are the plans for repairing this situation, the headlights now will flicker on and off there is no specific time or date when it decides to do this. I would appreciate a response to this situation since this is the vehicle that I have to drive to work and to transport my daughter to school.”
