“I got my 2000 Jeep Wrangler sahara from parents they bought it new from dealership. When it hit about 150,000 miles when in motion no mater how much gas is in it, it acts like you have run out . It cuts out, slows down, and sometimes will backfire then will go again. Sometimes if you turn off the key and start it again it stops doing it,other times it only helps for a mile then cuts out again.I now have 210,000 miles on it, and I never know when it will do it. …”
NHTSA complaint #10893777, filed 2016-08, 150,000 miles“Upon starting of vehicle after fueling a 'pop' was heard from the engine compartment and engine stalled.
