Description of the problem	In feb 2016 was driving through town and my dashboard and jeep started acting crazy and it just totally died as i tried pulling into gas station, was now blocking entrance/exit. Totally dead, couldn't put it in neutral and hazards didn't work. Replaced tipm costing me $1300. Then in oct 2016, jeep dashboard started going crazy again and died as i'm driving and turning in the middle of an intersection! Everything dead, no hazards, lights anything and it was pitch black. I was lucky i didn't get hit. Now they said it was battery even though i argued that it wasn't, i said it was the tipm again. They replace battery, but battery light came on right after i left dealer. Then they said it was the alternator. Got it replace but it wasn't the alternator, it was the tipm again! They covered that since i just paid for it in february. Faulty tipm's caused my jeep to totally die as i'm driving - twice!! If i was on a highway, it would have been horrific. And both times i had my kids in the jeep with me. Absolutely unacceptable. Never buying a jeep again. This is so dangerous.
