The motor mount bolt broke three times (first time) I fixed it with the dealer riverdale chrysler jeep and the second time I fixed it in ocean avenue gas corp. And the third time I went to riverdale chrysler jeep and they said they couldn't fix it because it has to be welded. I went to the welding place (able welding place) and they stated this cannot be welded. You need another motor block, I returned it to the bank because the car is unsafe.

Car shuts off while driving, without warning.
The exhaust manifold cracks allowing exhaust fumes into the driver compartment due to design flaw. Yh
My vehicle has been either hesitating or cutting off for the past 2 years. I have taken it to my mechanic twice and claims he doesn't know what is causing the problem. He is aware that jeep cherokee's have this problem but not the solution. The problem is getting progressively worse. At the beginning it would hesitate then correct itself. Then it started cuting off 1or 2 times in a driving session (20 minutes) and I was able to restart it. Now its cutting off 2 to 3 times and the last time it won't restart without a jump. I searched your prior complaint section and saw that there were reports of this same problem. Are you able to tell me what's wrong? Thanks for your time.
