JEEP WILL NOT START INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN TURNING THE KEY OVER THE JEEP WILL CLICK ONCE AND THE STARTER WILL NOT TURN OVER. SOMETIMES YOU CAN TRY AGIN RIGHT AWAY AND IT'LL START. SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO WIGGLE THE GEAR SHIFTER, AND SOMETIMES IT TAKES AWHILE TO GET IT TO TURN OVER AND START. I WAS TOLD IT IS EITHER AN IGNITION PROBLEM OR A NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH, BUT GEARED TOWARDS THE LATTER. IT DOES IT WHETHER PARKED ON A HILL, FLAT, WARM OR COLD. ACCORDING TO MANY JEEP PAGES AND FORUMS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REMOTE DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT OPERATE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FUSE TO THE DOORS HAD BLOWN. THE FUSE WAS REPLACED BUT, MOMENTS LATER, HAD BLOWN A SECOND TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER JEEP, DODGE, CHRYSLER AND FIAT OF YAKIMA WASHINGTON WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIPM MODULE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MODULE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURES CONTINUED. DURING THE REPAIR, IT WAS ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE WIRE HARNESS TO THE TIPM HAD MELTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

I OPENED THE DOOR TO THE JEEP AND THE WIPERS, HORN AND WIPER FLUID ENGAGED NON-STOP WITHOUT A KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THEM WAS TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. WHEN THE BATTERY CABLES ARE RECONNECTED, THE HORN, WIPERS AND WIPER FLUID SPRAYER ARE AGAIN ENGAGED. ON QUICK RESEARCH, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN TIPM FAILURE ISSUE THAT CAN ALSO EFFECT THE AIRBAG (PREVENTING DEPLOYMENT AS WELL AS RANDOMLY ENGAGING IT WHILE DRIVING), FUEL INJECTION CAUSING SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND VEHICLE CONTROL AS WELL AS ISSUES WITH LIGHTS AND GAUGES. ISSUES WERE SEVERE ENOUGH TO ISSUE A RECALL ON 2007 YEAR MODELS BUT SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE 2008 ARE NOT ADDRESSED. I WAS FORTUNATE THE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE WHEN THE TIPM FAILED AND NOT DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY.
Electrical system, May 2, 2017
I JUST PURCHASED MY JEEP ABOUT A MONTH AGO. I HAD A 30 DAY POWERTRAIN WARRANTY FROM THE DEALER, BUT IT DID NOT INCLUDE ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE TIPM WAS DEFECTIVE, AND MY JEEP WILL NOT START NOW AS A RESULT. I CONTACTED A PARTS DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND NO RELEASE DATE AVAILABLE.

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE (R13/NHTSA 15V-222) FOR CLUTCH INTERLOCK SWITCH. I REMOVED THE PART (1 CLIP AND ONE CONNECTOR) AND TRIED TO GET A REPLACEMENT PART AT LOCAL DEALER. THEY ATTEMPTED TO CHARGE FOR THE PART AND I ASKED FOR NO CHARGE DUE TO RECALL. THEY REFUSED TO GIVE ME THE PART BECAUSE I "MIGHT NOT INSTALL IT CORRECTLY". THEY WANTED ME TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENT FOR REPAIR (PUT THE PART BACK IN AND DRIVE TO THE DEALER, WHICH GAVE THEM ENOUGH FAITH THAT I COULD PLUG IT IN?). I DIDN'T WANT TO WAIT AT DEALER TO HAVE A PART PLUGGED IN, SO CONTACTED FCA RECALL ASSISTANCE. DEBATE ENSUED REGARDING WHAT FCA WILL AND WILL NOT PAY FOR. I PROPOSED THAT I WILL BUY THE PART AND SUBMIT FOR REIMBURSEMENT. I WAS TOLD THAT I MIGHT NOT BE REIMBURSED. AFTER REVIEW OF TITLE 49, I CALLED FCA RECALL ASSISTANCE BACK AND CONCEDED SOME ASPECT OF MY ORIGINAL ARGUMENT (BASED ON TITLE 49, 30120 (A)(A)(I)) AND OFFERED TO LET THE DEALER COME OVER AND CLIP IN THE PART. OF COURSE, THEY REFUSED AND RECALL ASSISTANCE RECOMMENDED TAKING IT TO THE DEALER, IN ESSENCE, INSTALLING THE SUSPECT PART THEY ARE CONCERNED THAT I MIGHT NOT INSTALL CORRECTLY (THE BASIS FOR REFUSAL TO PROVIDE THE PART), THEN DRIVE TO DEALER). I ASKED IF I THERE WAS SO MUCH CONCERN ABOUT PROPER INSTALLATION, WHY WOULD FCA ENDORSE THE INSTALLATION OF THE OLD PART. FCA THEN RECOMMENDED THAT I PAY TO TOW THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR THE REPAIR. FIRST OF ALL, SHOULD I BE REIMBURSED FOR THE PART, IF I PURCHASED AND INSTALLED? FCA POSITION IS MAYBE. SECONDLY, WHY IS REIMBURSEMENT AT THE DISCRETION OF FCA?
