Another "Stall Bug" Victim
#81
Most dealers think that their customers are morons, they dont believe you and they tell you that if that is happening then it is because the way we drive or its something we did, but when it happens to them on a test drive then its a whole different story.

Go to www.safercar.gov and look on the right side of the page. Look for "Defects and Recalls." Under that you will see "File a Complaint" in large red letters. Put in your info about stalling...
If everyone who has the stall bug will do this, I am sure NHTSA will force some action on DC's part.
Davidnstarj, I am not singling you out.
I just want people to do this. I checked this morning and there are only 11 complaints of jks stalling. It only takes about 5 minutes to do this...

.... but to stick to the topic.... the last time I had my Jeep serviced they did flash (they called it reprogramed) the PCM. They stated that it would take care of the radio cutting out and other "drivability issues", implying that they thought it would solve all of my stalling problems. It died again yesterday in traffic and this time it didn't restart on it's own like it previously has. I was able to start it back up, but the flash obviously didn't fix it.

Ok, I'm just asking out of curiosity. I realize this shouldn't be an issue while driving but I still wondered about it.
For those folks that are having the stall problem, do any of you NOT have the Power Conv. Group?
I know the power locks and such are very popular so I'm curious if all of you have this option.
Thanks,
Beel

NHTSA Website
Just a small aside. I tried to file a complaints today on the NHTSA website for both this stall issue and for my hood trying to come off in high winds. NO LUCK!! Anybody else having a problem? I have a mac instead of a PC and normally I like it alot better but am wondering if this is the problem?

Looks like many people have had this problem including myself. Keep up the good work and make sure that the government realizes that this is a serious problem affecting many Jeeps. I will try to do my part here in Canada.
