I have no idea whats wrong with it. About a week ago, i was driving it and the check engine light was on, brought it in and they said it was my O2 censors. and that i should be fine. and not to worry about it right now. so i was driving it and the whole car shut off. completely stopped, couldnt start it anything. Towed it to a auto place, thought it was a burnt out fuel pump but turned out to be a carotted wire. (KUH-ROW-TED) i didnt know how to spell it. anyways got that fixed for 200 dollars, he told me thats probably why my check engine light kept coming on, and that there was nothing else wrong with it, other then the O2 censors. THAT DAY i was driving it, and i was pulling out of my driveway and noticed that the speedometer was going all the way up to 120, and back down too 0 and the tachometer was accelerating to 7 when i wasnt even pressing the gas down hard at all, i was going about 5/10 miles an hour. Anyways brought it back in too see what was wrong with that, and nothing showed up and they told me not to worry about that, and they reset everything and told me the check engine light wouldnt come on anymore, 2 hours later, came back on. at this point i was just frustrated and was like whatever. lastnight i was driving around and noticed at a stop light when i went to accelerate that it did it AGAIN the gauges were going nuts again but this time, it stalled and it was making this clunking noise, and i had to pull over and tow it. can anyone tell me what is wrong with it? or what it is? i just payed 200 dollars to get it fixed not even a week ago, its ridiculous is this common for a jeep?
 
So first have the battery checked. Check the cables and connections.
Also check the ground wire where it is connected to the engine.
It sounds like you are loosing the connection to the battery.
Why do I say this, because you said it just clicked when you went to start it. This means a loose cable or bad connection.
