MY 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND 5.7L HAS NOT STARTING MULTIPLE TIMES. OTHER SYMPTOMS INCLUDE INTERMITTENT ROUGH IDLE AFTER STARTING, SPUTTERING/MISSING WHEN ACCELERATING AND UPHILL, AND INTERMITTENT FAILING TO SHIFT AT HIGH RPM. DEALER PROPOSING TO INSTALL STARTER/FUEL MODULE RELAY WHICH CHRYSLER HAS MADE DUE TO "AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WITH THIS PROBLEM" BUT QUOTING ME $410 FOR THE REPAIR. NO DEFINITIVE DIAGNOSIS THAT THIS WILL FIX ALL THE SYMPTOMS. ADVISED BY DEALER TO NOT DRIVE VEHICLE UNTIL PROBLEM IS FIXED AS THE TRUCK CAN STALL OR TURN OFF AT ANY TIME RESULTING IN A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM!!! *TR

AFTER READING MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS I SEE THAT MY VEHICLE SEEMS TO ALSO BE SUFFERING FROM A FAULTY TIPM. MY FIRST ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR MOST DAYS IS MET WITH WHAT SEEMS TO BE A LACK OF FUEL BUT EVERY OTHER ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR THE SAME DAY IS SUCCESSFUL WITHOUT INCIDENT. THERE IS NO CONSISTENT TIME, SPEED OR TEMPERATURE RELATED TO WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS TRAVELING. THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP, RADIO, A/C, TURN SIGNALS AND HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF AND SEAT BELT ALERT SOUNDS. ONLY ONCE HAS VEHICLE LOST POWER BRIEFLY. WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN 2012 THE DEALER COLD NOT FIND THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. NOW IT IS HAPPENING MUCH MORE FREQUENTLY BUT BEFORE I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND PAY FOR THE TIPM I WANT TO VERIFY THAT IT IS A RECALL ITEM. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT BEGAN RECENTLY IS THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE IF OPENED FROM THE INSIDE UNLESS WE PULL THE EXTERIOR HANDLE TWICE. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS NOT COVERED AND WOULD COST AROUND $600. *TR

Electrical system, Fuel/propulsion system, Sep 26, 2014
EARLIER THIS YEAR I STARTED EXPERIENCING STARTING DIFFICULTIES WITH MY JEEP. WHILE PRESSING THE START BUTTON, THE IGNITION WOULD RUN BUT NOT TURN OVER. EVENTUALLY IT WOULD START. HOWEVER, OVER THE SUMMER THE PROBLEM BECAME WORSE AND ON OCCASION THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND WHEN IT DID IT WOULD STALL OUT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 8/23/2014 AND THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY CALLED ME AND SAID I HAD A BAD FUEL PUMP AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A PRICE OF $1,300. WHILE THE JEEP WAS IN THE SHOP, I STARTED DOING AN ONLINE SEARCH OF MY PROBLEM AND DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM THAT A HUGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WERE HAVING - A BAD TIPM. ON 8/26/2014 I WENT IN TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED ON MY RECEIPT THAT THEY REPLACED THE TIPM AND NOT THE FUEL PUMP. I PRESENTED MY RESEARCH WITH THE SERVICE TECH AND SAID SINCE THIS IS DEFINITELY A DESIGN FLAW WITH THIS VEHICLE, THIS SHOULD EITHER BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. HE SAID THAT HE HAD NO AUTHORITY TO DO THIS AND I WAS FORCED TO PAY $1,233.42 TO RETRIEVE MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOW BEEN MADE AWARE OF A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM WHEREIN THE REMEDY WILL BE TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WITH ONE EXTERNAL TO THE TIPM AT NO CHARGE. SINCE MY PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED PRIOR TO THIS RECALL I AM EXPECTING A REIMBURSEMENT OF THE $1,233.42 THAT I HAVE ALREADY PAID. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ACROSS A BUSY INTERSECTION, AN INTERSECTION WHERE 2 LANES MERGE INTO ONE ON THE FAR SIDE. SHE WAS IN THE THROUGH LANE, THE LEFT LANE. OUR VEHICLE LOST ALL ENGINE POWER. CARS WERE MERGING FROM THE RIGHT AND NO ONE COULD COMPREHEND THAT OUR VEHICLE WAS IN A FAILURE MODE. WITH ENGINE NOT RUNNING, AND BELLS RINGING WHICH NO IDEA WHY THE BELLS, THE POWER-STEERING WAS INOPERATIVE AND THE BRAKES WERE VERY INEFFECTIVE. SHE WAS TRYING TO GET THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WITHOUT HITTING ANYONE OR BEING HIT. SOMEHOW, SHE AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT. SHE'S A VERY SMALL IN STATURE PERSON AND IT TOOK ALL SHE HAD TO STEER AND STOP THIS 5200 POUND JEEP. AFTER LETTING THE JEEP SIT, IT STARTED UP AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AND WE WENT DIRECTLY TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP. THEY PLUGGED IN A CODE-READER, FOUND NO CODES, AND SENT US ON OUR WAY. THEY WOULD NOT PROVIDE US WITH A REPAIR WORK ORDER SO WE HAVE NO PAPER WORK. THEY KNOW WHAT'S WRONG BUT ARE AVOIDING THE ISSUE. IT'S THE TIPM! THIS ISSUE HAS CONTINUED TO OCCUR AND THE FUEL PUMP ISN'T RUNNING WHEN IN THE FAILURE MODE. SOMETIMES THE HORN BLOWS BY ITSELF! WE'VE HAD THE WIPERS NOT FUNCTION AND THE WINDOW NOT ROLL UP. THE VEHICLE IS HAUNTED. WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR A RECALL NHTSA? *TR

PROBLEM PROGRESSED TO A CONDITION WHERE THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING, BUT SPUTTERED AND DID NOT WANT TO STAY RUNNING. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE VEHICLE HOME SINCE IT WASN'T FAR AWAY. TOW TRUCK HAS TAKEN JEEP TO THE DEALER AND AM WAITING FOR PART TO ARRIVE FROM NEW YORK BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD IT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE. PARTS AND LABOR ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY, DEALER STATES THAT GAS TANK NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FOR THE REPAIR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN OUTERBANKS, NC. THE VEHICLE DECIDED TO SHUT THE 4X4 SYSTEM OFF AND LOWER SUSPENSION COMPLETELY, ALL WHILE DRIVING. MY NEW BORN SON, WIFE AND 4YR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE VEHICLE AND WE ARE STRANDED. PAID FOR TOWING AND AFTER TOWED THE VEHICLE GOES BACK TO NORMAL WITH NO MAINTENANCE. UPON RETURNING HOME VEHICLE RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION, WILL NOT START OR FUEL PUMP RANDOMLY RUNS AND NOW WAY TO SHUT OFF. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I AM FINDING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE TIPM IN THESE VEHICLES. YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO GET THE PARTS AS THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO THE MANUFACTURER. WHO DO WE COMPLAIN TO IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE MY CHILDREN ARE IN THE CAR AND THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. THIS SEEMS LIKE THIS WILL BE THE ONLY WAY SOMETHING IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. *TR

VEHICLE POWER SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, IN ANY AND ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS. NO POWER STEERING, NO POWER BRAKES, NO POWER, NOTHING. THERE IS NO WARNING WHEN POWER GOES OUT. DRIVER CAN BE STRANDED IN MIDDLE OF FREEWAY, OR OFF-RAMP, OR BUSY INTERSECTION. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. WORSE THAN GM ISSUE. VEHICLE CANNOT BE RESTARTED WITHOUT SHIFTING INTO PARK. 2011 JEEP STALL ON 70MPH FREEWAY REQUIRES DRIVER TO SHIFT INTO PARK BEFORE A RE-START CAN BE ATTEMPTED (NEUTRAL WILL NOT ALLOW ROLLING START). EXTREME DANGER OF HIGH-SPEED REAR END COLLISION. WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE ON WEB 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE TIPM. RECALL IS NEEDED FOR THIS SAFETY CRITICAL ITEM.

SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE THROUGHOUT THE DAY TO START MY 2011 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE AND IT WOULD NOT START, ONLY A CLICKING NOISE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND THE TIPM IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. OBVIOUSLY, MY CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND NOT UNDER WARRANTY NOW. THE PART ALONE IS OVER $900.00, WHICH SEEMS QUESTIONABLE THAT SOMETHING WOULD GO BAD SO QUICKLY ON A VEHICLE AND COST SO MUCH TO REPAIR. BESIDES THE COST, THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE, AND EVEN MORE SERIOUS WITH THE ENGINE CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING. IS SOMEONE GOING TO RECALL THIS ITEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR EVEN KILLED????? I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, AND ALL MY PREVIOUS CHRYSLER/JEEP VEHICLES THINKING THEY WERE SAFE FOR MY FAMILY; NOW I'M NOT SO SURE. DO THE RIGHT THING AND RECALL THE TIPM! IN ADDITION, I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET THE BRAKE BOOSTER REPAIRED DUE TO THE RECALL AND THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT IN. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MONTHS NOW. *TR
