so far the only thing wrong with mine is that is used to suddenly loose power when accelerating, but only for a split second. took it to the dealer and they said they couldnt replicate it so did nothing, recenlty it hasnt happend. my suspision was either dirt in fuel filter or some sort of electrical thing.
the only thing im worried about now is my clutch, it feels a bit wierd
and only got 13000 on it.

Have had an annoying stalling issue which is pretty scary when you're in the middle of traffic or pulling out at a junction. Dealer fixed it but stills happens occasionally.

I do not have a code yet for my "troubles". JK Sahara Unlimited imported from Sweden and now stationed in Switzerland.
Special troubles indeed...
When i want to power off the engine and remove the key (a fairly standard procedure) while leaving the headlights on the engine keeps on running. I have always thought that by turning the ignition key to the off position the motor is separated from any electricity. But here this is obviously not the case
I've had this issue a few weeks after i got my car... First analysis show that it is something to do with the day light electronics which are required in Sweden thus this was disabled by the garage. After 2 weeks this day light activated itself again and the old problem with not being able to power off the engine appeared again...
Still much better than not being able to start the engine.
Next monday it will go to the garage again. Let's see what they, together with Chrysler find out.
