Hello and welcome to just answer. My name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I will assist you today. I am sorry you are having this problem but hopefully I can help. I am a shop foreman at a Jeep dealer and whenever I see this issue you are having it is almost always a problem with the electronic throttle body and replacing it takes care of it. It may be something else like wiring or connector at the throttle body, but the mechanic will be able to determine this.

Nothing you did or did not do is related to this problem. The gears / motor in the throttle body just get worn out sometimes.
