description: WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THROUGH A STONE TUNNEL ON THE BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY THAT HAD NO LIGHTING WITHIN THE TUNNEL THE JEEP SUFFERED AN TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND A TOTAL BLACKOUT TOOK PLACE. THANKFUL THAT I WAS NOT KILLED AND THAT NO ONE ELSE WAS IN THE TUNNEL AT THE TIME, THE JEEP WAS COASTED TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE TUNNEL AND OFF TO THE SIDE ON THE GRASS. HAD ANYONE BEEN COMING IN EITHER DIRECTION I MAY HAVE HAD ENOUGH LIGHT BUT IT WAS PITCH BLACK. I HAVE READ OF HUNDREDS OF ELECTRICAL FAILURES IN THIS JEEP VEHICLE AND WONDER WHY I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THIS IS A PRODUCT WARRANTY ISSUE FOR JEEP AND IT NEARLY WAS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR VEHICULAR HOMICIDE! THE JEEP JUST CUT OFF ALL ELECTRIC AND NOT EVEN DASHBOARD LIGHTS AFFORDED VISUAL. I HAVE THE PARK RANGERS REPORT AND SHE SAID THIS MOST LIKELY WAS TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE. I HAVE PICTURES FROM THE ACCIDENT AS THE JEEP HIT THE STONE TUNNEL SIDE AND THEN THE STEERING ROD ON THE RIGHT BROKE. THE INSURANCE COMPANY CHOSE TO JUNK THE JEEP AND I WAS LEFT WITHOUT EVEN A RENTAL CAR. I HAVE PICTURES AND THE RANGERS REPORT AND MY REPORT IF REQUESTED. HOW DO I CONTACT JEEP FOR A PRODUCT LIABILITY COMPLAINT?
