Do you have an alarm on this? If you do, that is most likely the problem. There seems to be a problem with the alarms. You may want to have a new key made just in case. Sometimes the keys are magnetically charged and after time, it wears off.

SOURCE: clicking noise on door hinge

there is a plastic piece that slides in the center of the door hing if you look close it will be broke or cracked in half. That is what is causing the noise.

SOURCE: Jeep Cherokee starting issue

On an intermittent start problem like this you may be having a starter solenoid issue or your wire on the starter from the key switch may be loose. Or you may have a corroded battery cable or the safety neutral switch may be going bad. Is it a automatic? If it were it would be the clutch safety switch going out. So do the simple things first. Clean cables like the first guy said if that does not fix it locate the starter and if you have jumper cables the next time it does it put the positive lead of the jumper cable on the Positive battery terminal and the other touch to the starter wire with the key in the run position where the big wire on the starter is, if you here it spin it means the starter motor is ok if it don't it is bad or the connection on the starter is loose. Also a bad battery cable could cause this from the battery to the starter next put a small wire into the end of the positive jumper cable and touch the S terminal on the starter if you here a solid clung it means the solenoid is good. So check the connections on the starter and tighten the starter bolts as they may have worked loose and don't have a good ground. So if you want more as stance just post on my question and I will hell p more and if this is more informative please rate

93 jeep cherokee-while cruising down interstate jeep sudenly started jerking, stalling, and lose of power. I pulled over to station. checked oil level, pressure, temp, alt output--all ok. jeep will start...

I don't know engine size? The fuel pressures I found was 31--39 psi, 92--95. I would use a gage and check proper fuel pressure.
How long since over-all tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes?

My two thousand jeep starsts then shuts off engine light comes on check gages what are the gages

You probably recently had a new key made, and the Jeep ignition is chipped. The key has a sensor, and must be programmed to match the ignition. Some will start till you put it in gear, then it shuts off.
