| Description of the problem | Just purchased this jeep a few weeks ago and, even though we knew the tipm was a known issue, we thought perhaps it would not surface for a few months or years. Well 2 weeks ago, the check engine light started beeping. A few days later, it would not start. Then today the dashboard lights started flashing & beeping and a few minutes after that, the engine stalled. Although i was able to restart it, 10 minutes later it stalled again & i could not restart it & nothing was coming on - no hazards / lights / engine lights. Another 10 minutes and i noticed the lights were back on so i tried to start it again . Engine tried to turn over but unfortunately it didn't start. Waited another few minutes & it finally started. Was able to drive it home & am not going to make the appointment to get the tipm replaced. Jeep needs to own this problem and make it a recall. Its terrifying knowing that i could have been on the highway when the car died. |
