Driving to work on a cold snowy day from huntington, ny to st. James, ny. After 30 minutes of driving the lights flashed on, car seemed to have less pick up, radio went off. Minutes later, the car began to shake and gas gave it no power. Lost power in steering and brakes as well. Drifted into a snowbank on the side of edgewood ave. In smithtown, ny next to a busy school driveway. Would not restart. When tow truck arrived still would not start. After three days, dealership stated that they didn't know what was wrong with the car, but based on the information available, they would replace the wireless control module. Part was on backorder for 2+ weeks.

My car wont start. On feb 5th, odi 10217364, I had this same issue and I brought the car to the dealership and they replaced the tim module. On feb. 16th I tried to start the car 4 times - it would turn on for a second then all lights on the dash would come on and the car would die. On the 5th and 6th try it wouldn't turn on at all, just the lights on the dash would come on. It was after 4pm so dealership closed. On feb. 16th I tired the car again, it turned on with the first try so I moved it from the garage to a spot outside. On monday, feb 17th I was going to drive it to the dealership to have them look at it but again it would not start. Just like on saturday, after 4 attempts it wouldn't turn on at all. Had it towed to the dealership again. This is the 5th time that the car has gone into the dealership for stalling/not starting and the 8th time that this stalling/not starting problem has occurred.

On feb 5th, I was driving on the freeway at about 65 MPH and my car died - dash lights went on, car jerked to a violent slow down and I almost crashed into a semi on my left, the car pulled to the left. All resumed to normal after about 4 seconds. I have filed previous complaint, conf nbr 10188682. This is the 4th incident but what is most shocking is that the first 2 times I brought it to the dealership repaid shop I was told that they couldn't duplicate the error and that they and chrysler corp didn't have record of any other reports of this problem. On the 2nd visit, I advised the service person that he should look at this web site if he had never heard of this problem since there were numerous complaints. On the 3rd incident, when I got home, there was a recall "safety recall g25-program tipm-engine stalling- so I called the service center, again, advised that car stalled again and that I also received recall and scheduled the service - aug 2007. After this visit I felt more secure to drive the car because at least chrysler had acknowledged the problem. The on feb 5th 2008 as I was driving to work, it happened again. I continued to work and at the end of the day when I went back to the car it wouldn't start, all lights/radio etc came on but the car wouldn't turn over. I had it towed to jeep. I was told by service person, after the car was inspected that the control module - same item that caused previous problems, had to be replaced. I purchased this vehicle new, so that I would have a dependable and safe vehicle - neither of which it is! I asked the service manager what chrysler could do for me. He said that from the notes it looked like I only had one occurrence with this issue and that this was the first he heard of this type of problem with jeep - wow - either he out right lied to me or he is an uninformed manager. Needless to say I am not confident that this issue wont occur again!

My car was parked on an incline of about 20 degrees and I had 1/4 tank of gas. When I went to start the car it wouldn't turn on. All the lights on the dash came on, but the engine wouldn't turn over. My radio and lights worked fine. This is the 3rd time that this has happened in a year and 2 months. The two prior times, I coasted down to a flat area and the car started. Tonight it didn't. I think there is a problem with the fuel delivery system or fuel pump. The three times that this has happened I have had 1/4 of a tank of gas or less.

I have a 2007 jeep wrangler x and as I pulled out from a stop sign the radio cut out and the electrical light came on and it wouldn't go over 2k rpms in first gear. So I had to pull over and turn it off then it wouldn't start back up for a few minutes.
