NHTSA Complaint #10629868 — 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

MY JEEP FAILED TO START ON THE FIRST 4 ATTEMPTS. THIS WAS ONE OF THE MANY TIMES IT HAS FAILED TO START. MY SERVICE TECH TOLD ME IT NEEDS A TIPM, TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE AND THAT THEY ARE KNOW BY JEEP TO BE DEFECTIVE AND JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL THESE BEFORE THERE ARE ANYMORE ACCIDENTS. I WAS ALSO TOLD IT WILL TAKE WEEKS FOR A REPLACEMENT TIPM DUE TO THE DEMAND OF THE BAD ONES BEING REPLACED. I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS AROUND A $1300 REPAIR. I BOUGHT A EXTRA 5 YEARS WARRANTY AND NOW NEED TO GET A RENTAL AND HAVE IT FIXED BEFORE IT LEAVES ME STRANDED ALONG THE ROAD. *TR
