Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The vehicle is a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4 equipped with the 2.8l crd (diesel engine). from an intersection at a complete stop, i proceeded to turn right into another street. i accelerated to approximately 15 mph when the vehicle suddenly lost all power and would not accelerate. the engine began to hesitate and the vehicle could not go faster than 5 mph. it could only limp along at this speed while i attempted to get off the road. this created a serious condition for other drivers to attempting to avoid my vehicle until i could reach a section a that allowed me to pull-off the road. the vehicle then stalled when i came to a complete stop. i attempted to restart the vehicle after a few minutes, and it ran in a normal manner. i subsequently continued my trip without any other incidents. this is a very disconcerting defect because it exhibits no signs that allow the operator to take preventative actions to avoid possible accident during road use. *nm
