My 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.7L stalls while driving. This has happened so far only at low speeds; excelerating after stopping. I put it into park and turn the key and it starts back up just fine. It doesn't seem to be running badly either. Could this be a fuel pump problem or something else. The check engine light is not/ does not come on.

Crank or cam sensors will do this. Also make sure your power feet on those sensors is correct voltage and clean power.
This also could be the fuel pump.
Use only Bosch Delphi or VDO pumps.
Carquest and Chinese pumps are junk and will cause trouble.

The problem I believe is the crank shaft position sensor.Check the wiring and make sure the connections are good.It is located at the right rear side of the engine block.Hope this helps.Good luck.

I have a 99 jeep cherokee laredo 4.0 and it is stalling before excelerating. The engine is still running and the rpms go up but no faster for 3 or 4 seconds and then it takes off. Happens during the drive...

Change fuel filter, check air filter, clear air intake manifold with spray solution you can get from auto supply store. If that doesn't help have fuel pressure checked

Air conditioner only works while moving. The AC stops cooling when stopped and idleing. Anyone know what causes this?

Your freon level is low, and not circulating on slow compressor speeds. Stop by any shop that has a sign stating they work on a/c and they can recharge it for you in a few minutes. Here where I live they charge about $20.00 labor plus a charge for the freon they put in, they sell it by the pound.
