While driving 2011 jeep grand cherokee with children in car, the jeep just stalls out on me and i lose control of the steering. it has happened most times when i am making left and right turns.

Exiting highway. one incident merging right off ramp. other incident, slowing to cross oncoming traffic onto a road. engine suddenly shuts down. fcw light comes on. sensor on front is kept very clean! vehicle will restart but this is very dangerous as i was almost hit by oncoming traffic in the none incident. i read that this is common with these vehicles. shame on you! never have another one

2011 grand cherokee overland 5.7 v8 approx 124000 miles stalled when turning left through intersection slowing from 50 to 25 mph. steering and brakes failed. all recalls have been performed. this was supposedly fixed with p54 (fuel pump relay). fortunately i was not towing my boat. this issue seems to have spanned many years and is extremely dangerous.

2011 jeep grand cherokee shuts off while driving. power steering, engine control and braking all become difficult to use. happening while turning causes the vehicle to veer into the guard rails, if they are present, or oncoming traffic, if turning away from traffic is too difficult. luckily, in the multiple times this happened, i was turning right, either onto the highway onramp or into a gas station. the times into the gas station, sent me over the curb and grass, barely missing the pumps. the vehicle shows no signs of an error on the dash. all radio, lights and gauges work fine. once you are able to stop the vehicle, it must be put into park and the push button start re-ignited. it terrified my family.

While driving and deceleration the jeep shuts off. no lights come on indicating that the vehicle is no longer running. the first clue is loss of power steering and brakes. this always happens within the first couple miles of driving. the jeep starts right back up and then 99% of the time won't stall again for a couple days. this is getting more frequent.

It has now happened several times in which i'm driving and the jeep suddenly loses all engine power, braking and power steering. this happens on the highway. there are never any warning lights or sounds to signal this is about to take place. this last time it almost made me cause an accident.

I was driving down the highway at 60mph when i let off the gas and hot the brakes to slow down for a corner the engine shut down and i lost breaks and steering. i was able to muscle the steering through the corner and coasted to a stop. i put the jeep in park, got the break pedal and started the vehicle back up. everything seemed to work again. when i lost the engine, breaks and steering nothing else was effected. i still had lights, radio and gauges. but, no warning lights or codes came on.

Takata recall. when my vehicle is in motion arriving at an intersection, and i decrease the speed, the engine shuts down and at the same time the steering wheel is stuck, making it impossible to turn, and the brakes get hard. i have already taken the car 3 times to the jeep shop and they have not been able to fix this problem. since this problem started 2 months have passed and it has already happened 4 times. the car does not show any errors on the screen or afterwards when they are read. it is very dangerous because it always stays in the middle of the intersection without being able to do anything.

The vehicle consistently shuts off while i'm driving, losing power steering and engine power. it seems to occur when i am slowing down. this happens usually once/twice each week and most recently almost caused a high speed accident, as my car shut off while i was making a left turn on a highway, which caused a semi truck to swerve, nearly hitting me and my 4 year old son.

Every 3 months apart or so my vehicle has lost power on the engine causing it to shut down on me when i make a hard left turn while applying my brakes. the first time that it happened it was on the freeway on my way to work out of nowhere my wheel hot hard and when i was pressing my accelerator it was not working. , the second time it happened when i was making a left turn and the same thing happened to me i had to get on top of the side walk because i couldn't steer it enough to make my turn. and my third time happened this morning while i was going under the bridge luckily for me no one was behind me but this problem is a situation ready to go wrong. out of all these times i have been alone in the vehicle going on my way to work in the morning. its always a scary experience for me. i do not feel safe driving the car. no codes no nothing. the steering wheel gets all hard that i can barely turn it to get on my right lane so i can ...

While making a turn the steering and the brakes locked up and the engine shut off, causing me to lose control of the vehicle. this has happened twice 8 months apart. i've done the recall for the relay switch in 2015. this happened again (2nd time) yesterday april 9th, 2018. i almost hit a car at a light it was terrifying. the dealership has my jeep now and said they can't diagnose unless they have an error code or unless it happens while the technician is driving it. is chrysler going to have people drive these suv's and ignore that people could die? this is an extremely urgent situation. i don't feel safe driving my jeep that i love. please help?
