Owners are advised not to drive their vehicle until the recall repair is complete. Chrysler will notify the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and RAM owners. Mitsubishi owners will be notified by their company. Dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2017. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403.

Power train, Apr 30, 2020
THE VEHICLE "POPS" OUT OF 1ST GEAR CONSTANTLY. I'VE SEEN HUNDREDS OF EXAMPLES POSTED IN FORUMS WHERE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MANY OF THESE MODELS. ITS DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO START FROM A STANDSTILL WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND YOU AND YOU CAN'T EVEN USE FIRST GEAR TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. I'VE HAD PEOPLE ALMOST HIT ME BECAUSE OF THIS!!..AGAIN, THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED...AT FIRST I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS JUST ME....BUT AFTER DOING HOURS OF RESEARCH (HUNDREDS OF POSTS ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON LINE) AND EVEN HAVING OTHER PEOPLE DRIVE MY VEHICLE, WE ALL AGREE SOMETHING IS WRONG..

Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 27, 2020
SINCE 2017, EVERY TIME I PUMP FUEL INTO THE CAR AT GAS STATION, THE PUMP OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR, THE GROUND AND THEN MY FEET AND HANDS BECAUSE I HAVE TO STEP IN THE PUDDLE AND PUT THE GAS CAP ON. I MOVED TO TN FROM CA IN 2016 AND I HAVE BEEN THINKING THAT IT THE SHELL GAS PUMPS HERE IN TN THAT WERE CAUSING IT...AS IF THEY WERE OLD OR NOT UP TO SOME SORT OF "CA STANDARD" OR SOMETHING. HOWEVER, AFTER THIS PROBLEM JUST HAPPENED TO MY PREGNANT WIFE WITH OUR 2 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR, I DECIDED TO CHECK A JEEP FORUM AND SEE IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. LO AND BEHOLD, THIS APPEARS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE DATING BACK 10 YEARS TO A 2010 FORUM I FOUND. URL: HTTPS://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F176/HAVE-FUEL-SPILL-PROBLEMS-LIKE-MANY-US-SUBMIT-COMPLAINT-FORCE-RECALL-974337/ THIS VIDEO SHOWS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?TIME_CONTINUE=7&V=HAE5HT-_Y48&FEATURE=EMB_LOGO THIS IS A SERIOUS RISK OF FIRE AND SAFETY...FOR NOT JUST ME, BUT ANY PATRON AT A GAS STATION WHO IS EITHER THERE WITH ME OR DRIVES UP TO MY PUMP AFTER ME. THE FUMES ARE NOW ON OUR FEET AND THEN IN THE CAR...THEN WE GO HOME OR WHERE AND SPREAD THAT GASOLINE FUMES AROUND EVERYWHERE WE GO. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I'M VERY CONCERNED WHY THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS GIVEN THE EASE TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM WITH ONE SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH. I'M VERY CONCERNED...

TIPM PROBLEMS FROM THE RESEARCH I'VE DONE. CAR GOES HAYWIRE! HORN GOES ON RANDOMLY AND STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DRIVING! WIPERS GO ON AND OFF RANDOMLY EVEN WHEN I TRY TO USE THE WIPER SWITCH TO CONTROL IT, NOTHING HAPPENS. WIPER FLUID GOES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY EVEN WHEN NOT CONTROLLED BY SWITCH. DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING EVEN WHEN NOT USING THE REMOTE. ALARM GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH THE HORN. ALL DASHBOARD LIGHTS RANDOMLY FLASH ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALL THESE WEIRD EVENTS USUALLY OCCUR AT THE SAME TIME OR RANDOMLY BY THEMSELVES. MOSTLY HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING OR WHEN TRYING TO INITIALLY UNLOCK AND ENTER THE VEHICLE FOR USE.

CHRYSLER HAS PUT IN AN PART ORDER AND CANNOT GIVE ME A DATE AS TO WHEN THIS CAN BE FIXED. THE SIZE OF THIS BACKLOG INDICATES THERE ARE MANY INSTALLATIONS NEEDED.

I AM EXPERIENCING A RECURRING ISSUE THAT APPEARS TO BE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS, THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES HAYWIRE, FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES AND THEN IS FINE.

AFTER DOING A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE AFFECTED BY THIS AND THEY ALL CONCLUDED THAT IT WAS THE TIPM.
