2006 jeep commander limited 4wd. 179,000 miles. Traction assist is activating while driving straight on dry pavement causing unexpected deceleration power loss. While driving on flat dry paved highway, at approximately 40-45 MPH, the vehicle began to stumble and lose power. The traction control light was blinking during this time. During which time, when I turn off the traction assist via the button, the effect disappeared. No fault codes were stored or set.
