' takata recall' while driving my 2016 jeep patriot in motion on a city street , my engine shut off and i got several lights on my dash . after putting in park the vehicle restarted , but i have a 4 year old son and i dont feel safe driving on the freeway and not knowing if my vehicle is going to stop suddenly in traffic .
While driving, the check engine light, the electronic throttle sensor light and the abs light came on. as a result, the engine loses power, the transmission is choppy and i cant drive faster than 20-30 miles per hour. if i turn the car off and restart, the sensor light and abs light goes off, the check engine light stays on and the car runs normal. after five minutes, the aforementioned lights come back on and the engine returns to its subnormal running conditions. there is no specific explanation for this problem and according to jeep's forums, it is a common problem among all jeep models.
When driving the engine will stall/stop without warning. with it going staright or turning it does not matter. you have to completely stop the vehicle and then restart the engine. this has happened on a number of occasions
I was adding gas to the jeep and the gas spewed out because the cutoff did not work; it is not the gas station's problem because i have used the pump for my car and it cuts off when the tank is full. my son had the same problem at another gas station where there is a defect in the jeep in that it doesn't cut off the gas when full. this needs to be addressed immediately or i am going to start a class-action lawsuit before someone gets covered in gas.
Jeep in motion, engine stalls at varies speeds multiple times in a row. headed straight or turning, had to call tow truck but after 20 minutes i tried to turn over my jeep and it started. this happened 3 different times before arriving home. kept call center rep. on phone until i was 2 miles away from my home. 1 time jeep paused like not getting gas then i pressed the pedal and it accelerated (all right in the middle of intersection) then drove the remaining mile and a 1/4 home while on phone with husband. advance auto told me possible fuel issue, i added lucas fuel system cleaner. now looking at recalls online and reading about camshaft or crankshaft sensor. miles on jeep 41688.
The vehicle has consistent fuel injection issues which cause the car to stutter when accelerating up hills. i took the vehicle to the dealership twice and they said they could not find problem. now that it is out of warranty the problem is persistent and there is an engine fault
I was driving down the road and barely touched the shifter and when i touch the shifter it slipped over into where you shift your gears i feel like it's a could catch the car on fire because it is revved up so high and you don't even realize it because you cant hear it unless you you got radio off and windows up and you can never tell i definitely think they should have made it more safe when from some kind of a lock on the shifter for when you want to go over into where you shift the gears yourself not to mention how expensive cars are and that you could very easily tear up your car by it being in the manual shifting area rather than the automatic shift
I was not informed of this recall and had no knowledge why my car would stall. no notice was sent o my house. i want another vehicle, it can be used same year and style but fixed!
Vehicle stalled while driving and stopping.
