Description of the problem	My jeep wrangler unlimited x 4 dr would not start and would just click once without turning over the engine. The entire dash was bright and functioning and my battery was brand new. After a few attempts the jeep started as if it was perfectly fine and did not struggle to start neither. Every few weeks to few months it will repeat the same thing over. Also, a few times the dash would show that the jeep was engaged in every gear. I stepped on the brake and shifted the automatic gear from p to 1 and back to p and the dash returned to normal. I have a strong feeling my computer or tipm / fuse box is going haywire yet the dealer finds nothing wrong. I just brought it to the dealer for a diagnostic and he found no errors. Why is there no recall on this if there are so many complaints about the same issues for jeeps from many models and years?? Please help! I have read on many posts that dealers have told customers that there are about 300-400 tipms are on backorder so why no recall? My warranty is still good but i'm afraid the dealer will do everything they can to avoid having to honor it as i was pretty much told they could do nothing for me. I'm still paying off the finance and it's not right that i have a lemon on my hands. The worst part about this is that i am in danger of the engine stalling while driving and now i fear my family's life/safety. No one should have to deal with such a dangerous situation.
