I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND REMOVED THE FUSE BOX COVER, THERE WERE MELTED FUSES IN THE BOX AND I COULD SEE SOME MELTED WIRES UNDER THE FUSE BOX. I CALLED A LOCAL BODY SHOP TO COME AND PICK UP OUR JEEP. I CALLED MY INSURANCE AND FILLED A CLAIM. SINCE THERE WAS NO FIRE WE HAD NO CLAIM. I RENTED A TOW DOLLY AND TOOK IT TO STATELINE DODGE IN FORT MILL, S.C. I DECIDED TO CALL JEEP FOR HELP. THEY SENT SOMEONE FROM ENGINEERING ANALYSIS TO DETERMINE WHAT HAPPEN.

TIPM IS FAULTY. POWER LOCKS NON FUNCTIONAL. WASHER PUMP NON FUNCTIONAL. PASSENGER HEADLIGHT STAYS ON HIGH BEAM CONSTANTLY EVEN WHEN VEHICLE IS NOT IN USE. UNPLUGGING BATTERY IS MANDATORY TO KEEP LIGHTS OFF AND BATTERY FROM DRAINING. FACTORY INSTALLED REMOTE START DOES NOT WORK.

JUST PURCHASED THIS JEEP A FEW WEEKS AGO AND, EVEN THOUGH WE KNEW THE TIPM WAS A KNOWN ISSUE, WE THOUGHT PERHAPS IT WOULD NOT SURFACE FOR A FEW MONTHS OR YEARS. WELL 2 WEEKS AGO, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED BEEPING. A FEW DAYS LATER, IT WOULD NOT START. THEN TODAY THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING & BEEPING AND A FEW MINUTES AFTER THAT, THE ENGINE STALLED. ALTHOUGH I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT, 10 MINUTES LATER IT STALLED AGAIN & I COULD NOT RESTART IT & NOTHING WAS COMING ON - NO HAZARDS / LIGHTS / ENGINE LIGHTS. ANOTHER 10 MINUTES AND I NOTICED THE LIGHTS WERE BACK ON SO I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN . ENGINE TRIED TO TURN OVER BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT DIDN'T START. WAITED ANOTHER FEW MINUTES & IT FINALLY STARTED. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME & AM NOT GOING TO MAKE THE APPOINTMENT TO GET THE TIPM REPLACED. JEEP NEEDS TO OWN THIS PROBLEM AND MAKE IT A RECALL.

MY HEADLIGHTS AND MARKER LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF UNLESS I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD RANDOMLY COME ON AND NOT SHUT OFF. CHANGED OUT THE ACCESSORY SWITCH AND THAT DIDN'T FIX ANYTHING. CHANGED SOME FUSES AND THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RESOLVED. THE NEXT DAY MY JEEP WOULDN'T START. JUMPED IT WITHOUT A PROBLEM AND ABOUT A HALF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING. MY JEEP ENGINES MOTOR STALLED WHILE IN MOTION ON A BUSY CITY STREET WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 40 MPH, FORTUNATELY I HAD JUST STARTED SLOWING DOWN FOR THE RED LIGHT SO AN ACCIDENT DID NOT OCCUR. I SAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BUSY ROAD FOR TEN MINUTES WAITING FOR THE POLICE TO PUSH ME TO AN EMPTY PARKING LOT. DUE TO THESE SYMPTOMS AND THE PREVIOUS INVESTIGATION (NHTSA DEFECT INVESTIGATION #DP14004), I BELIEVE I HAVE A FAULTY TIPM. THE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP IN HUBBARD, OHIO LOOKED OVER THE JEEP FOR BAD GROUNDS AND WIRES AND NOTHING WAS FOUND. ON MARCH 6, 2016, THE JEEP'S HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF UNLESS THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF, THE FOG LIGHTS LIGHT ON THE DASH FLASHED AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD COME ON WITH THE FOG LIGHT SWITCH. THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD SHUT OFF WHEN I SHUT THE JEEP OFF AND REMOVED THE KEY, SO I DEALT WITH THE PROBLEM FOR A FEW DAYS UNTIL IT WENT AWAY ON ITS OWN. I'M HOPING THIS IS THE LAST OF MY TIPM ISSUES.
