Jeep died, ran colder then normal, now won't start
What is your question?
2001 jeep grand cherokee died today. Started stalling while at stops and didn't want to stay idling after turning it off and starting it back. But finally I pushed the gas and brake and was able to get it going. As I got down the interstate, it started a knocking noise, then the temperature gauge started going down a little then back up a little then before I knew it, the Jeep made a poof noise and died. Its on the side of the road now. It's had low coolant alert for the last month and I filled with antifreeze and/or water since then it's December so it's cold outside but this all happened after driving it for 45 miles today What do you think is wrong with it
What makes this problem better or worse?
Driving it made it worse
How long has your 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee had this problem?
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
It's really difficult to come in at this late stage of the game and try to guess what happened to your engine and vehicle. The truth is, you've had a warning issue for quite some time with the low coolant situation. No matter what, it needed to be corrected, not just by adding coolant. It's impossible to know what happened, but what it is sounding like is not at all positive. It would be important for you to have a professional evaluation of your vehicle to see if something major has occurred or if there is a resolvable situation.
When the vehicle will not run without unusual operation, it's best to not drive it and get it checked out.
