ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
FIRST THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING (CHANGED MOTOR AND CONTROLS) THEN THE HORN STOPPED WORKING, THEN THE BLINKER AND LIGHTS ALONG WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. SWITCHED THE PANEL AND FINALLY THE TIPM WHICH FIXES ALL ISSUES. VEHICLE CONTINUED TO RUN BUT PARKED IT UNTIL AFTER REINSTALLING THE TIPM.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TAKA AIRBAGS, TIPM FUSE BOX. COMPLETELY DISABLES THE VEHICLE. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT AND HAVE BEEN RUNNING THIS PART IN MANY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP VEHICLES SINCE 1995.MY CAR IS A 2007. IT RECKON HAVOCK ON THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE DEALER MILKS ALL OF YOUR 260 SOMTHING SENSORS BEFORE REPLACING THE TIPM, TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. AND THE SWAY BAR DISCONNECT IS PRONE TO WATER DAMAGE AND SHORTING OUT BECAUSE THEY LET WATER IN THE ASSEMBLY AND SHORT OUT THEN THEY CHARGE YOU 1400 DOLLARS FOR A NEW ONE. WHEN IT IS JUST THE ACTUATOR. A MANUAL OVERRIDE IS ONLY 89.00.ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE FROM THE CAN BUSE C. 90 %OF THIS VEHICLE PROBLEMS ARE FROM THIS CAN BUSE C. BUT NO RECALL ON THE TIPM, SWAY BAR ACTUATOR, OR CAN BUSE C COMMUNICATION. THIS WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHOULD BE A RECALL. IT IS GARBAGE. OVER COMPLICATED AND UNDER NESASARY! DRIVING DONE THE FREEWAY AND THE WHOLE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP I PULLED OVER TURNED CAR OFF AND THEN WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. GOES IN TO A LIMP MODE. I WAS WORRIED THAT IT WOULD SHUT OFF OR WORSE CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR LEAVE ME STRANDED IN THE FREEWAY! THE AIRBAG RECALL COULD SET THE AIRBAG OF WILE DRIVING CAUSING YOU TO CRASH.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY CAR STARTED ACTING UP. NEIGHBORS WOULD COME REGULARLY RING MY HOUSE BELL TO LET ME KNOW THAT THE JEEP'S HEADLIGHTS WERE ON. THE JEEP WAS PARKED IN THE STREET. THE PROBLEM: IT WOULDN'T STAY LOCKED. IT WOULD AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AND UNLOCK WHENEVER. WE ONLY HAVE STREET PARKING AT HOME AND IT WAS VERY STRESSFUL TO LEAVE THE CAR OPEN AT NIGHT IN THE STREET OR EVEN WHEN GOING PLACES. ALSO THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED GETTING STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD OR SOMETIMES STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY! FINALLY, THE RIGHT BLINKER WOULDN'T WORK AND THAT PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RELATED TO THE BROKEN LOCKING/UNLOCKING SYSTEM. AFTER GOING BACK AND FORTH TO TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS 5 TIMES (EACH TIME THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED BUT IT WASN'T), AFTER REPLACING THE TIPM AND ALL THE WIPER MOTOR PARTS AND REPROGRAMMING EVERYTHING PROPERLY, IT IS NOW A FUNCTIONAL CAR AGAIN! IT WAS A BIG BILL AND ON TOP OF THAT I HAD TO SPEND MONEY ON LYFT AND WAS VERY HANDICAPPED WITHOUT A CAR!

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY JEEP WITH 86K MILES ENGINE BLEW. ONE WEEK EARLIER WHEN DRIVING OVER 40 MILES PER HOUR IT SEEMED TO WOBBLE A BIT FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE I HAD 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON. I HAVE ONLY OWNED IT FOR A MONTH AND IT IS A 2ND VEHICLE AND I WAS NOT SURE IF THAT WAS NORMAL OR NOT. THEN AFTER NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS I MOVED IT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND WAS LESS THEN A BLOCK FROM MY HOME WHEN THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND HALF A BLOCK LATER THE ENGINE CUT OUT. THE CAR WOULDNT START AGAIN AND I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT. THEY TOLD ME THE INTERNAL FUEL PUMP SEEMED TO MALFUNCTION AND THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN! WHEN I RETURNED HOME I NOTICED A POOL OF OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY. THIS CAR SAT FOR DAYS AND WAS BARELY DRIVEN BY ME SINCE MY PURCHASE. HOW DOES AN ENGINE AT 86K MILES JUST BLOW? HOW DOES OIL JUST DUMP OUT OF A VEHICLE? WHY? WELL DOING INTERNET RESEARCH IT APPEARS THAT THIS 2007 ENGINE YEAR THERE WAS A MISTAKE IN THE ENGINES WHERE PISTONS WERE PUT IN UPSIDE DOWN? THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THIS AND MANY 2007 JEEPS HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN. I AM LUCKY IT HAPPENED ON A LOCAL ROAD, IF I WAS DRIVING 65 IN MIDDLE LANE OF A HIGHWAY AND MY ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF I WOULD BE DEAD. I COULDNT STEER IT. IT JUST STOPPED..... I HAVE TRIED CALLING CHRYSLER AND HAVE BEEN TRANSFERED MANY TIMES TO OTHER PEOPLE, I AM AT A LOSS OF WHAT TO DO. AGAIN, I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE 1.5 MONTHS...

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
JEEP WILL NOT START INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN TURNING THE KEY OVER THE JEEP WILL CLICK ONCE AND THE STARTER WILL NOT TURN OVER. SOMETIMES YOU CAN TRY AGIN RIGHT AWAY AND IT'LL START. SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO WIGGLE THE GEAR SHIFTER, AND SOMETIMES IT TAKES AWHILE TO GET IT TO TURN OVER AND START. I WAS TOLD IT IS EITHER AN IGNITION PROBLEM OR A NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH, BUT GEARED TOWARDS THE LATTER. IT DOES IT WHETHER PARKED ON A HILL, FLAT, WARM OR COLD. ACCORDING TO MANY JEEP PAGES AND FORUMS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FOR THE PAST 5 MONTHS I'VE HAD MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I READ THE CODE AND IS SAYS "LARGE E VAP LEAK " I'VE REPLACED THE PCV VALVE AND THE E VAP CHARCOAL CANISTER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON. I'VE BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY DID A SMOKE TEST AND EVERYTHING TESTED OUT GOOD. SHOWING THAT THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS AND TO START WITH THE GAS CAP. I'VE SPENT OVER 100.DOLLARS ON GAS CAPS AND I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE TO FOR EMISSIONS BY THE END OF DECEMBER. I'VE HAD EVERY RECALL KNOWN TO MAN ON THIS JEEP. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT IT COULD BE THE GAS FILLER NECK ITSELF. HOW TO I GO ABOUT GETTING A NEW ONE AND WILL IT COST ME ANYTHING? I ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WHEN I TRY AND FILL THE TANK. THE GAS COMES FLYING BACK OUT IF I TRY AND FILL IT. ITS GETTING OUT OF HAND AND THE DEALERSHIP WON'T GIVE ME AN ANSWER. I WAS GOING TO GO TO.ANOTHER DEALERSHIP BUT I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS WILL COST ME? I HAVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31 TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED OR MY PLATES WILL BE SUSPENDED AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO GET MY PLATE STICKER. WHAT SHOULD I DO?? THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING. THIS STARTED IN THE MIDDLE OF MAY.
