“I have a 2007 Jeep wrangler 2 door. With approximately 4700 miles. I was driving at 40 MPH and all of sudden the engine cut off and all dash warning lights came on and within 3-4 seconds the engine started and ran fine. This is a very serious condition. I have read on this site and other Jeep sites that other folks are having this same problem.”

“My air bag light kept coming on and turning off. Finally I had my Jeep looked at and I came back that the clockspring is bad. Its about $500 to have it fixed and I dont have the money. Also it had 60,000 mi on it at the time. I've been on Jeep forums and this is a continuing issue with jeeps. Why have the 08's been recalled for this problem and not the 07's? Can this be looked into please? I have called chrysler about this and they dont care I would really hate to get into a wreck seeing how I dont have airbags”

NHTSA complaint #10864050, filed 2016-05, 60,000 miles

“My 2007 Jeep wrangler has had engine stall two times now at 50-60 MPH. Causing light failure, engine failure, no brakes or power steering. I have taken it to the dealership two times, after restarting the vehicle. The next time it happens, they said call a tow truck and have it towed to them. This started at approximately 26,000 miles and again at 30,000. Both times nothing was found and the computer programs were current.”

NHTSA complaint #10306547, filed 2010-02, 26,000 miles

“1) under normal driving conditions 2) the Jeep's electrical system will cut out and shut everything off including the engine. 3) I inquired about a recall that described my situation (NHTSA campaign id number: 07v291000 ) and was told that it didn't apply to my vehicle.”
