#1 of 2 2000 JGC Stalling after driving an hour by jewls Apr 22, 2009 (9:25 am)
My husband just bought this 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee. He knew that the sellers were having problems with it and they showed him all the things they had done to try and fix it lately. He still thought it was a good buy. We now have a "Headache"...or lemon!! The problem is, you can drive for an hour, even two hours. BUT if you stop for a minute the jeep starts spitting and sputtering, it then shuts off. You have to sit there for a good 10 minutes to restart it. It will restart right away but it will spit and sputter. After 10 minutes it starts fine. We checked the ecu (computer), supposedly it's fine. He just replaced the ignition coil (chrysler told us to) didn't seem to help. He did say that it runs a little better now that it's changed (or so he thinks). We are leaving for vacation in a few weeks (over 800 mile drive) and we have two small children. We don't want to be breaking down on the side of the road.   There have been many things replaced but I will have to get a list. Also he just mentioned that he believes it is leaking tranny fluid. (The transmission has been replaced recently). Could it just be a seal bad and making something get hot and shut off? We are going crazy over this whole situation!! PLEASE someone help us!!!
