This same thing just happened to me at 65 mph. All dash lights came on, engine stopped, then engine came back on but was acting like it was in ntrl. then all was normal. I also noticed a few days ago while driving around in 4wd the radio cut of when accelerating from a stop. Going to call dealership today................wish me luck!

Mine did it again yesterday too. Dealer still has no idea. If anyone ever figures anything out I would like to know what you find out.

Happened to me once while pulling into my driveway. Had TSB performed the next day and it hasn't happened again. That was right at 3k miles, I'm at 4600 now and it hasn't happened again.

The same thing just happened to me this morning with 2568 on the odometer. Accelerating from a stop sign going about 20mph with the parking lights, radio, heater, and a heated travel mug on. :sad:

**UPDATE**
The dealership ordered a new torque converter and ignition switch. Both arrived in a couple weeks and I am scheduling an appointment today to have them both replaced.
I will post an update once it is completed.

Well I got the flash done last Friday. The Jeep does feel as if it shifts better. It doesn't feel any faster but more responsive to accelerate. Also no pause when I turn the key to start up. We'll see if it fixes the stall bug.

Ok Guys

Dealer Said my PCM (Power Control Module) is losing power and don't know why bc there is power going into it. They called DC and DC said that this is a first. Dam had to be me- They need it back bc they have to do a road test @ 40-50-&60 miles per hour and get the codes off the car at each of those speeds. With it snowing today- they said not today and I agreed.

I'll bring it back next monday and keep you posted

have they done the TSB 1803606... i think that was the number, if not, be sure to have it done... lots of us on here used to have that problem until the TSB came out. Its supposed to be for build dates before november tenth... but its worth a try even if yours was built after that.
