| Description of the problem | I bought a 2012 grand cherokee used three weeks ago to the day when while driving the kids to the library saturday, suddenly all the warning lights (check engine, abs, traction control, brake, service power steering system etc.) buzzers, speedometer and transmission position started acting erratically. I pulled over and turned the car off. After a few minutes i restarted it and made it to my driveway when it did it again. I got it into my garage, disconnected the battery cable and let it sit until this morning. When i re-connected the cable and started the car only the check engine light came on. So the wife followed me to the dealer where we dropped it off. Luckily it made the 8 mile trip without any other issues. Then a few hours later the service dept. Called me to say it was the tipm, appx. $950. 00, not under warranty, and about 3 to 5 days to fix. |
