Hi. I have a 1998 model Jeep Wrangler, and I want to know if anyone of you has had problems with this model?
1. My problem is weird, and annoying. My car will either stop dead in the middle of the road sometimes, or it won't start up at all. After 6 mechanics, one found out by accident that the little plug in the fuel pump relay keeps loosening itself because it is too narrow for the plug holes.
I thought this was just MY problem, untill the security officers at college asked me If my jeep was mysteriously shutting istelf off/not starting. They have the same problem, but they couldn't find out what it was either untill I told them what the mechanics said.
Anyone have any ideas about this/same problem?

Check on forums or websites where Jeep owners gather. I'd not be surprised if that wasn't a common problem.
Still means I'd buy one, tho'. To quote my Dad: Jeeeepjeepjeepjeepjeepjeep!

Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.

That's what you get for buying something from a generally terrible line of vehicles.
