| Description of the problem | On 5/6/16 i went to start my 2014 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon and the engine did not make a noise but the dash lit up like a christmas tree. The windows had power and radio worked but the door lock or alarm did not work. I towed it to the dealer and was advised that it was a common problem and was called the "tipm module" which is basically the entire fuse box and part of the computer. I was stuck there in north carolina from maryland for four exra days. Now after getting back home to maryland on 6/5/16 i go to try and accelorate onto the highway from a ramp and the transmission revs to 5,500 rpm but the jeep will not accelerate. I have to ease off the gas and let it accelerate very slowly. Thank god no trucks were coming or it could have beed and extremely dangerous situation considering it was interstate 95 by 175 where semi trucks go to the ta truck stop. |
