I OPENED THE DOOR TO THE JEEP AND THE WIPERS, HORN AND WIPER FLUID ENGAGED NON-STOP WITHOUT A KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THEM WAS TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. WHEN THE BATTERY CABLES ARE RECONNECTED, THE HORN, WIPERS AND WIPER FLUID SPRAYER ARE AGAIN ENGAGED. ON QUICK RESEARCH, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN TIPM FAILURE ISSUE THAT CAN ALSO EFFECT THE AIRBAG (PREVENTING DEPLOYMENT AS WELL AS RANDOMLY ENGAGING IT WHILE DRIVING), FUEL INJECTION CAUSING SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND VEHICLE CONTROL AS WELL AS ISSUES WITH LIGHTS AND GAUGES. ISSUES WERE SEVERE ENOUGH TO ISSUE A RECALL ON 2007 YEAR MODELS BUT SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE 2008 ARE NOT ADDRESSED. I WAS FORTUNATE THE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE WHEN THE TIPM FAILED AND NOT DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY.

MULTIPLE TIMES YESTERDAY, STARTING WITH (WHICH I THOUGHT NOTHING OF INITIALLY) THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNING ON WHILE THE JEEP WAS IN PARK NOT MOVING. SHORTLY THERE AFTER WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A HIGHWAY ABOUT 45-55 MPH A KNOCK OR CLUNK WAS FELT BENEATH THE FLOOR, IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY THE EAS, TRACTION CONTROL, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED, THE AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHED, THE WIPERS RUNNING EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE OFF, A HARD PULL TO THE RIGHT AND HIGH RUNNING/INCREASING RPM'S ON A LEVEL ROAD WITH MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR. I HIT THE HAZARDS, PULLED OFF THE ROAD, LOOKED AT, IN AND UNDER THE JEEP, NOTHING LOOKED AMISS. MY HUSBAND TOOK OVER THE DRIVE, MADE IT ROUGHLY 8-10 MILES WITH OUT ISSUE AND THAN AGAIN EVERYTHING ABOVE BUT IN ADDITION THIS TIME THE HORN BLARED FOR PROBABLY 2 MINUTES, IF NOT MORE, HE PULLED OVER SHUT IT OFF TURNED IT ON WE WENT HOME, WAITED ABOUT 2 HOURS, DROVE ABOUT 15 BLOCKS CITY ROADS WITH HILLS AND TURNS LESS THAN 25MPH ROUND TRIP AND NOTHING HAPPENED. MIGHT BE WORTH MENTIONING, FOR THE LAST MONTH OR SO IN HIGH HEAT 80 DEGREES AND UP, IT HASN'T BEEN STARTING THE FIRST FEW TURNS, BUT THE BATTERY IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD.

FACTORY RADIO IN 2007 JEEP WRANGLER BEGAN OVERHEATING DURING THE SUMMER OF 2009. OVERHEATING WAS CAUSING EXTREMELY LOUD POPPING NOISE TO BE BROADCAST OVER ALL SPEAKERS IN VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER AND INSPECTED, RADIO WAS REPLACED. PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE FIXED HOWEVER; THE WEATHER TEMPERATURE HAD COOLED BY THAT TIME SO IT WAS UNCLEAR AS TO WHETHER THE SITUATION HAD BEEN ALLEVIATED. IN OCTOBER 2009 THE PROBLEM BEGAN OCCURRING ONCE AGAIN, THIS TIME WHEN THE DEFROST AND HEAT WAS TURNED ON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION AGAIN. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE HEAT FROM THE DEFROST AND THE HEATER WAS CAUSING THE RADIO TO BECOME EXTREMELY HOT. THE POPPING NOISE WAS DUE TO THIS OVERHEATING PROCESS THAT WAS OCCURRING. CHRYSLER CORPORATION WAS NOTIFIED AND A COMPLAINT WAS FILED HOWEVER THEY STATE THAT THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION AT PRESENT AND THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ENOUGH INSTANCES TO WARRANT A RECALL. THEY HAVE OFFERED NO REMEDIES OTHER THAN EMPTY APOLOGIES. WE ARE AFRAID TO TURN ON THE RADIO IN THE VEHICLE FOR FEAR THAT IT WILL CAUSE A FIRE. THE DEALER STATES THAT THEY CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN. FURTHERMORE THE POPPING POSES A HAZARD IF IT OCCURS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AS IT IS SO SUDDEN AND SO INCREDIBLY LOUD. *TR

DRIVING TO ST. JAMES, NY AFTER A WEEKEND IN NJ IN SNOWY AND COLD CONDITIONS WITH NEW PUPPY. AT 7:00AM, ABOUT ONE HOUR INTO THE DRIVE, WHILE ON LONG ISLAND EXPRESSWAY, RADIO WENT OFF, LIGHTS FLASHED ON AND OFF, CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AND LOSE POWER. I PULLED OFF THE NEAREST EXIT AND IT STALLED AS I COASTED INTO A GAS STATION. AFTER ABOUT 15 MINUTES, THE CAR STARTED AGAIN, AND I TRIED TO DRIVE IT TO THE HUNTINGTON SERVICE CENTER ABOUT 8 MILES AWAY. THE CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE OVER 25 MPH, AND AFTER ABOUT TWO MILES BEGAN TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND TRIED REVVING THE ENGINE. NOTHING CHANGED AND THE CAR STALLED. I WAITED IN THE COLD AND SNOW FOR AAA TO TOW ME TO THE HUNTINGTON SERVICE CENTER. SERVICE CENTER COMMUNICATED TO ME THAT THE CAR HAD NOTHING WRONG WITH IT BASED ON THE COMPUTER CHECK. THAT A TECHNICIAN WOULD TAKE IT FOR A TEST DRIVE WITH ME. THE PROBLEM DIDN?T HAPPEN ON THE TEST DRIVE. UPON RETURN TO THE SERVICE CENTER, I INSISTED THAT THEY CONTINUE TO SEARCH FOR THE PROBLEM ON THE GROUNDS THAT MY CAR HAD TO BE TOWED IN AFTER LOSING CONTROL ON THE HIGHWAY. SERVICE MANAGER REFUSED. I ASKED HIM TO EXPLAIN CHRYSLER?S RESPONSIBILITY IN THE MATTER AND HE SAID IN AN UNKIND TONE THAT I COULD GO TO ARBITRATION BUT THE PROBLEM WOULD HAVE TO OCCUR IN FRONT OF THE ARBITRATOR, SO IT PROBABLY WOULDN?T WORK IN MY FAVOR. RETURNED TO SERVICE CENTER AT 29,308 MILES BECAUSE THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS WERE GOING ON AND OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. INSISTED THAT THEY FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND FIX IT. SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD CALL THE CHRYSLER TECH SUPPORT TEAM TO HELP WITH SOLVING THE PROBLEM. THEY STATED THAT THE PROBLEMS CAUSED ON MARCH 3 AND MARCH 4 WERE BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS LOW AND THE ESP WAS ACTIVATING PREMATURELY. THEY STATED LOW BATTERY WAS CAUSING THE POWER FAILURE AND THE ESP WAS CAUSING THE SHAKING OF THE CAR. SERVICE CENTER REPLACED THE BATTERY AND FIX THE MODULE THAT CONTROLLED ESP. *TR

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER .I HAVE EXPERIENCED A STALLING PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE 5 TIME IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS. 4 OF THE 5 TIME I WAS TRAVELING AT NIGHT AT SPEEDS OF 50 TO 65 MPH ON AN INTERSTATE. THE REASON I AM WRITING THIS COMPLAINT IS I ALMOST REAR ENDED A TRACTOR TRAILER RUNNING AT A SLOWER SPEED AFTER THE STALL TURNED OF THE LIGHT AND GAVE ME NO BRAKE POWER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ALMOST COSTING ME MY LIFE. I AM TAKING IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A RECALL NOTICE DONE ON 03/21/08. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE COMING QUITE COMMON ON THESE JEEPS, I HOPE A DEATH DOES NOT HAPPEN BEFORE THEY FIX THE DEFECT. *TR

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED FULL SHUTDOWN AGAIN, THIS TIME ON THE INTERSTATE AT INTERSTATE SPEED. THE RECALL DID NOT COVER MY BUILD DATE AND THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE VEHICLE TURNING ITSELF OFF, AND THEN BACK ON A FEW SECONDS LATER. THE ONES THAT WERE COVERED BY THE RECALL, SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE STILL. ALL THE DEALER CAN DO IS DOCUMENT THAT I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN AND THAT THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE IS LIKELY TO GET SOMEONE KILLED!*CN
