The evap container isnt the right part and obviously was actually for a jeep wrangler and has an extra inlet. After numerous attempts to contact jeep for the last 4 months and still nothing this vehicle will stall while driving and it drives alot of interstate travel which is a huge safety risk and still have gotten nowhere all I want is for jeep to make this right and fix the manufacturer mess up.

Transmission pan leaking at 56,000 miles. No way to check fluid level for novice. No warning light for low fluid level, pulling out into traffic, car no longer moves stalling in on coming traffic. Open further investigation, pan rusted was seeping trans fluid under carriage soak, no smoke from exhaust burning as short trips. Long trip fire hazard due to cat. And hot exhaust. This is very premature to rust out. Many complaints across the internet and jeep forums.

I shifted the vehicle to neutral and was able to come to a stop on the shoulder of the road when the vehicle started up the next hill. No turns, the road was straight.
