Sudden loss of power by model year
What owners say
While driving, loss of power. Was driving 60 MPH, lost power and car would not accelerate, but rpms would hit 6k. Had to change altenator. With brand new altenator I got 90 miles . Then car would only hit 20 MPH , and rpms would hit 6k with no acceleration. Pull over and sit 5 minutes then car would accelerate normal. But the problem happens everytime I start car and go to drive. Have read that the has been an ecu and other issues and recalls for it with many others complaining. I was on highway. There seems to be an issue with the radio as it with the vehicle turned off and no key in ignition, the stereo makes noise like it's trying to work. Feel veryvunsage and it seems to be a manufacturing issue as the vehicle only has 90k miles .
While driving on a highway I noticed a whining noise and losing power going up a hill I was able to get home and to my mechanic. After checking the transmission he found metal filings in it and said I needed a new transmission. I was very disappointed in hearing this as the jeep only has about 68000 miles on it. I contacted the jeep dealer in scranton pa and was told that the vehicle was out of warranty. I contacted different transmission garages and was quoted prices from over $3000 to $6000. Reading about other peoples problems with jeep vehicles this seems like a big ongoing problem with jeep transmissions.I hope your agency can help us out so we can get some satisfaction from jeep.
Driving on the interstate and auto suddenly lost power although engine was still running it would just idle, even with the gas pedal all the way to the floor, turned auto off and let it set for a few minutes and when it restarted it appeared to be ok, would take gas, then on 3-19-2015 this happened 3 different times within a 150 miles on the interstate,would have to unhook the battery and reconnect it before the problem would clear up, then drive it just a bit more and it would happen again.
