1 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 08/31/2019

The radio in my jk 2014 sahara kept over heating and now does not work at all it is completely black screen.

2 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2017

Randomly the airbag light came on and shut off the same day. The next day it came back on and won't go off. This is new. The radio skips every couple of seconds and interrupts all sound making a popping noise from every speaker. It does not matter if I am using the auxiliary satellite am fm or even do you connect device. Usually if it is the first time the vehicle is started that day the radio works fine along with everything else until it is shut off and restarted. This has been happening for over a year it stopped for about a month and started up again.

3 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 11/02/2014

Jeep completely died (lost all power, including all electrical, brake lights, panel lights, etc) in condo parking lot. Got out to start pushing it back to parking spot, and a few seconds later the door chime started and power was restored. Radio was booting up from cold start (showing garmin logo). Restarted car, it turned over and started normally. Started driving forward again, and in about 20 feet, it completely died again in the same way, and came back to life about ten seconds later. Decided it was not safe to drive, and was able to restart again and reverse to parking spot. Jeep was towed on November 3 and repaired on November 4 when the part came in. I was told that the tipm was replaced with a new version that didn't have the same type of problems.
