Two issues with this vehicle. first, at 99,000 the camshaft began to fail due to excessive wear. the vehicle is now burning an excessive amount of oil and fuel. i am told that the engine needs to be replaced, but the dealership and chrysler refuse to repair/replace under warranty. second, the vehicle constantly stalls while driving. this happens 1-2 times per month, typically when breaking for a stop, or breaking to make a right hand turn. very dangerous. dealership was unable to identify the problem, but i see literally hundreds of complaints from people who have the same problem.

I have a 5.7 hemi in my jeep. the vehicle stalls when slowing down, and making a right hand turn off of a highway. this has happened 8 times in the 2 years that i have owned the car. it happened once when i was slowing down for a speed zone on a straight road. the vehicle gives no warning that it is going to shut down. our local jeep dealer did some diagnostics, but found nothing. from what i have read it seems to happen to the 5.7 engines. i don't like driving the car with anyone in it for fear of getting rear ended if it stalls, and people are behind me.
