What owners wrote
2013 jeep wrangler . Consumer writes in regards to vehicle electrical problems. *smd the consumer stated when a tone sounded, the brake light, ABS and stability lights illuminated. Also the speedometer and tachometer needles went to zero, and the cruise control shut off, slowing the vehicle down instantly. The stability and brake switch were replaced.
While driving with cruise control engaged on the highway at roughly 80MPH, the cruise control kicks off. Check engine light displays and the ESC light comes on. Vehicle loses power and decelerates on its own. Have to floor the gas pedal to keep the vehicle moving. Experiences momentary bursts of speed but then speed declines again although the gas pedal is still pressed to the floor. I believe this is attributed to the clockspring assembly but my vehicle was not included in the recall.
