Was driving at relatively low highway speed (50mph) up a small incline. Low RPM (1200rpm). With sharp highway curve coming up, vehicle stalled for no reason. Steering became unresponsive. Turned key off and on several times trying to turn steering to follow curve. Luckily sunday night traffic was light or could have resulted in accident. Engine finally started up and steering pressure was restored. Kept RPM over 2500rpm for a couple of minutes and car bucked a number of times in the first 5 or so minutes. Ran smoothly afterwards with engine RPM kept higher (2500+). Had to get off the highway and follow side streets to get home. This problem has been occurring for 3000-4000 miles and I've had nearly everything replaced, coil, spark plugs, plug wires, distributor rotor, distributor cap, starting on sensors now.
Vehicle stalled ,backfired, shows that I have more gas in vehicle than I have. Getting harder to restart. Stalls in traffic. Why haven't the government recall these vehicles.I read so many of same complaints and nothing seems to be done. These vehicles are unsafe!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This jeep grand cherokee laredo stalls at any speed and suddenly the engine stops and can even send a strong backfire able to crack the muffler. It works perfectly for a period of time and without any symptom it struggles and stalls. Sometimes it remains on and sometimes die. It broke me 3 mufflers. A lot of money and work have been done by mechanics including jeep dealer without fixing the problem. Pcm and a lot of parts had been replaced and the problem was solved only in part. It still die while driving. This jeep cherokee is not reliable to use in highway for the risk to stop in the middle. Jeep and mechanics are at random to fix this problem. I have visited web sites about jeep problems and I know there are others with the same problem.
Driving on highway, jeep stops! Stopping at light, jeep stops-will not start unless jump start, this goes on and on consistanly for 10 months,within those months I replaced:fuel pump(2's)(4 mufflers-gas keep leaking into muffler and blow up)(fortunate to be alive!)catalic converter ,water pump,crank censor,map censor,oxygen censor,ignition rotor,distributor cap/magnet,engine tune-up,transmission tune-up,oil change,:any and everything, after about $2000 I was ready to call it quits, it all centered around the (((fuel pump))) I was stopped and told I had gas leaking out as I was driving, being light headed from fumes???
