Two problems related to starter have been reported for the 2011 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Jeep was towed to shop due to starter randomly catching on fire. Asked mechanics to check the road walk. They said everything was fine but Jeep bounces all over the road. I have drove many keeps and this isn't normal and is unsafe to drive. Electrical issues with the heated seats. They turn on for 3-4 seconds and shut back off.
My 2011 Jeep Wrangler unlimited is a right hand drive that I use for mail delivery and personal use. The engine stalls spontaneously while I'm driving and/or delivering. When this happens, steering is precarious. Twice this incident has happened while I was in-transit through a curve at 45 mph. I was unsuccessful at wrestling with the steering wheel to drift off the road safely. Two succeeding cars, not able to see me in the blind spot of the curve, swerved into the opposing lane of traffic to avoid me. A fatal accident could have happened. F ornately and thankfully, the engine did start up again but not without a close call. Does someone have to get seriously injured or die before a recall will be considered?? also, randomly the starter cranks but won't start or it won't crank at all, rendering the key fob useless for locking the doors-excruciatingly frustrating & a security issue when the vehicle is full of mail/packages. I have been to 2 mechanics on 3 separate occasions concerning these issues. One mechanic could not make a diagnosis and the other thought the problem to be the starter, which was replaced. However, the problems persist. My research has lead me to believe that I might have a faulty tipm. I will have a mechanic investigate this possibility further. Should the tipm be the culprit, a recall should be opened for desperate reconsideration and for safety's sake!!!!!!.
