My headlights and marker lights would not shut off unless I disconnected the battery. Windshield wipers would randomly come on and not shut off. Changed out the accessory switch and that didn't fix anything. Changed some fuses and the problem seemed to be resolved. The next day my Jeep wouldn't start. Jumped it without a problem and about a half a mile down the road while driving all of the dash lights started flashing. My Jeep engines motor stalled while in motion on a busy city street with a speed limit of 40 mph, fortunately I had just started slowing down for the red light so an accident did not occur. I sat in the middle of the busy road for ten minutes waiting for the police to push me to an empty parking lot. Due to these symptoms and the previous investigation (NHTSA defect investigation #dp14004), I believe I have a faulty tipm. The local repair shop in hubbard, ohio looked over the Jeep for bad grounds and wires and nothing was found. On March 6, 2016, the Jeep's headlights would not shut off unless the vehicle was shut off, the fog lights light on the dash flashed and the windshield wipers would come on with the fog light switch. The headlights would shut off when I shut the Jeep off and removed the key, so I dealt with the problem for a few days until it went away on its own. I'm hoping this is the last of my tipm issues.
Problem light for the suspension disconnect came on. Dealership had to replace the actuator because it was full of water and shorted out. Couple of weeks after problem with suspension, the tipm module had to be replaced. At time all problem lights on dash board lit up like a christmas tree and vehicle could not be started. Had to be towed.
After backing out of parking space, stopping and placing Jeep in drive, vehicle continued to move in reverse. Dash display continued to indicate car was in reverse. Vehicle was placed in park and the ignition turned off. Vehicle would not restart. Tried disconnecting battery but did not reset. Also tried the manual override, which did allow shifting to neutral, however vehicle would still not start. Display continued to show vehicle in reverse regardless of shifting to different gears. This could have been a dangerous situation, with potential for injuries to those in the parking lot. Also, could have resulted in an accident had it occurred at an intersection or other location. Why is this not a recall? this seems to be occurring in many Jeep/Chrysler products based on vehicle forums.
