“During normal driving, my vehicle will stall. Has happened twice since I have owned it (5 months). Total loss of all power steering, brakes, and electrical in the vehicle. Dealer told me on both occasions that since the vehicle did not report a code in the computer, there was nothing they could do.”

“I guess I am writing with more than one issue. Sorry for the inconvenience of such a long explanation but I thought long and hard before delving into this. I purchased my 2007 Jeep wrangler unlimited x 4-door 2wd in october of 2006. I was one of the lucky victims that while going 70 MPH, the entire Jeep shut down and then restarted on it's own. This happened twice. Took it in once, I got the I'm sorry look and was let go. Didn't even bother with the dealership the second time and finally was lucky enough not to have a wreck before the recall was sent. …”

“While driving approximately 40 MPH, my 2007 Jeep wrangler sahara stalled while in motion. It then lost all power steering, etc. Momentarily and then started itself back up without any human intervention. This has also happened previously while making a low-speed turn in which it stalled completely and I was stopped in a busy traffic area on a blind curve with traffic coming both directions. Cars were coming both directions and there was almost an accident because they were avoiding me. I also had my 2 young children in the vehicle with me. …”

“I own a 2007 Jeep wranger unlimited (4-door) yesterday I was driving on a rural highway between 60-70mph and I lost all power, the radio shut down and I looked down at my dash and all my lights lit up. I felt the engine shut down as I begun to move to the shoulder all the power came back up. I came home to tell my husband and he looked on the internet and found similar situations being reported. I called my local dealer and the dealer I purchased the car from and they both had no idea about this being an issue. My concern is will this be an ongoing issue and can it be fixed. …”
