Not to hijack the thread but yes ...it also happened in my f150 at about 85k and i thought the compressor was getting ready to go so i traded it in on this jk and it does the same thing only at 13k....oh well

had the flash but still happening!!! too many issues with this one, i too filed, and have waited over a month so far to have the district manager set up an inspection for the roof leak they cannot seem to fix...5 tries so far...between the leak, stalling out at 70, fighting the esp on off ramps, the hood shake issue, and a heater knob that wont stay in defrost, i would almost think i bought a 5000 yugo....shoulda listened to the wife and got the loaded 06 holdover

Filed my complaint today. Just happened a little while ago. Dash lit up and engine would just rev as if in neutral. Then all of a sudden I was back in business and drove home fine. I noticed that I had the air on before it happened and then I had to turn it on again after the incident as if I had turned off the ignition and cranked it up again.

Mileage: 5118
Trans: Automatic

I'll file next. 55mph on country road yesterday, felt like esp took over and slowed me real quick. The log truck behind me didn't appreciate it either; if he wasn't paying attention my wife would have had a good lawsuit with DCX.
