Description of the problem	As i was leaving for work one morning i hit the key alarm to unlock doors and jeep began honking, windshield wipers turned on and began spraying windshield fluid. I thought it was odd and didn't think much of it. On the way to work in traffic it began doing the same thing and this occurred 3 times in about 30 minutes. After getting to work, the jeep would honk by itself every 2-3 minutes. I decided to take in to the dealership. It continued doing this on the way there. As i was about half a mile from the dealership the jeep completely turned off and i immediately had to pull out of traffic. I was able to start back up but this time all a/c had stopped working. After gutting a call back from dealership, he said the part was on backorder and there was at least a 100 orders waiting to be shipped. This concerns me because it looks to be a widespread thing with the jeeps. In doing some research previous to this email there were problems with the tipm on the 2007 jeep and i'm worried some of these bad ones may have gotten into some of the 2008.
