CAR LOST ALL POWER WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN ON A BUSY STREET. THE ISSUE TURNED OUT TO BE A DEFECTIVE TIPM WHICH COST OVER $1100 TO REPAIR.

MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED WRONG... MY ENGINE BLOCK IS CASTING SAND INTO MY COOLANT SYSTEM WHICH THEN BLOWS OUT MY HEATER CORE AND RADIATOR. I HAVE SPENT 5 MONTHS UNDER WARRENTY TRYING TO FIX WITH ISSUE BUT THE JEEP DEALER AND CHRYSLER GIVE ME THE RUN AROUND. I WAS TRYING TO GET THIS FIX UNDER WARRENTY BUT ALL THE RUN AROUND I GOT FROM THE DEALERS HAS CAUSED MY WARRANTY TO EXPIRE WITH NO FIX. I THINK I HAVE BOUGHT A LAMON OF A CAR I ONLY HAVE 14K MILES , MY ISSUE STARTED AT 7K MILES. NOW IT IS WINTER TIME AND IN DRIVING MY CAR WITH NO HEAT. I HAVE A NEW BORN BABY ON THE WAY WHO WILL GET SICK INSIDE MY CAR. JEEP DOES NOT WANT TO COVER THE COST OF MY REPAIRS TO REPLACE THE HEATER CORE AND RADIATOR ALSO A COMPLETE FLUSH OF THIS SAND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THIS IS A HAZARD FOR ME AND MY BABY TO DRIVE AROUND IN THIS COLD VEHICLE . THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT JEEP\CHRYSLER IS TRYING THEIR BEST TO KEEP THIS QUIET. ILL BE TRYING TO CONTACT A LAWYER SOON OR MAYBE A NEWS STATION.

TIPM FAILURE WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC VEHICLE STALLED CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK USING FOB OR ROCKER SWITCH / WINDSHIELD WASHER WILL NOT WORK/ HEATER WILL NOT WORK/ RADIO DIMS WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED ON/ DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN ON UPON OPENING DOOR

TAILGATE SWINGS BEYOND ALLOWABLE LIMIT, EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED ON A LEVEL SURFACE, CAUSING THE SWING ARM TO BREAK, BRAKE LIGHT TO CRACK AND INTERIOR TRIM PANELS TO BE DAMAGED.

CONFIRMED BAD CLOCKSPRING UNIT BY DEALERSHIP THAT CONTROLS THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG. UNIT WAS NOT EXPOSED TO ANYTHING EXTREME LIKE WATER OR HEAT BUT JUST STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED THE SENSOR LIGHT GOES BACK OFF SO THE SENSOR TURNS ON AND OFF WITH REGULAR DRIVING ON ANY ROAD OR CONDITION.

JUST OVER A MONTH AGO I WAS GOING TO WORK, AND NOTICED THAT MY TURN SIGNALS WERE NOT WORKING. I TRIED MOVING THE TURN SIGNAL UP AND DOWN TO NO AVAIL. I ALSO NOTICED THAT MY HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON. I PULLED OVER AND THOUGHT MAYBE A FUSE WENT BAD OR SOMETHING AND FOUND EVERY SINGLE FUSE TO BE FINE. I THEN ALSO NOTICED THAT THE DIGITAL COMPASS READOUT ON THE DASH WAS NOT FUNCTIONING, AND I COULD NOT SCROLL THROUGH THE MENUS WITH THE MAIN COMPUTER USING THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. THE HAZARD LIGHTS WOULD WORK PROPERLY...AND THE LIGHTS WOULD FLASH PROPERLY WHEN I LOCKED THE DOORS WITH MY KEY FOB...WHICH TOLD ME THAT THE CIRCUIT WAS STILL WORKING. AFTER ABOUT 25 MINUTES OF FIDDLING EVERYTHING SUDDENLY STARTED WORKING AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY, WHILE AT WORK I WENT TO LUNCH, AND WHEN I RETURNED TO WORK AS I PULLED INTO THE PARKING SPOT, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS RANDOMLY TURNED ON WITHOUT ME TURNING THEM ON...AND I COULD NOT GET THEM TO TURN OFF...EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO GET THEM TO GO OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND THEY FOUND THAT IT WAS THE TIPM I FIGURED WELL...NOW I DO HAVE A NEW UNIT AND SHOULD BE FINE. THAT FANTASY WAS DESTROYED YESTERDAY WHEN I WENT TO GO HOME FROM WORK, AND SUDDENLY MY LIGHTS WOULD NOT TURN ON...THEN GOT STUCK ON AND COULDN'T TURN THEM OFF...AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD NOT TURN ON AT ALL...AND THE TURN SIGNALS WOULD NOT FUNCTION...ALL WHILE GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. I LIVE IN VIRGINIA, AND WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A HUGE RAIN EVENT, SO THE WIPERS AND LIGHTS FOR SURE NEEDED TO WORK IN ORDER FOR ME TO DRIVE HOME. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO GET EVERYTHING TO TURN OFF. AFTER DOING THAT...THE HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT TURN ON...AND THE WIPERS REMAIN THE SAME AND NOT WORKING. NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAD TO GET A RIDE HOME AFTER I MADE IT BACK TO WORK...HAVING TO LEAVE IT AT WORK.
