Description of the problem	I have had my grand cherokee for 1. 5 yrs and have had an intermittent start issue since i got it. It started out once or twice every couple months. In the last 3 weeks it will not start for me multiple times per day. This is a very annoying problem and i had it at a dealer for 2 days and they can't get it to duplicate. The alternator recall was performed and they also added the external fuel pump relay outside of the tipm. They fail to acknowledge any sort of problem because my vehicle has no codes when they run diagnostics on it. Since they have added this external fuel pump relay (which i see is going to be in a recall) the vehicle would not start after i made my first stop and shut te vehicle off. This happened right after i left the dealer. The dealer has provided me with no resolution and will not do anything further until they get their codes in the diagnostics. My vehicle is an early model 2012 and the dealer even looked at my tipm and compared to a 2011 tipm, it was the same tipm in my vehicle compared to the 2011 model. I wish fiat/chrysler would get it together and recognize this problem in other model years besides the ones recalled.
