Default stalled out today?

ok so I have a 99 wj 4.7 limited and its about 6 months old to us. Since we have got it, it has had nothing but problems. Today I went to back into my drive way and it stalled out in the middle of the road. What would cause this? Some problems in the past few weeks have been it jolting with power when starting, running only a couple cylinders than all 8, and not wanting to move when put in drive. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it

Same thing, It happened to me today??? I got under the hood and found that the battery was loose. Tightened everything up and went on my way like it was nothing? Like my fuel pump went out, but it was the battery
