2012 JEEP WRANGLER Electrical System Problems

SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL COME ON EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN I TURN ON THE LEFT BLINKER. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE TAILGAIT. AFTER ABOUT 3 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE THE TAILGATE HINGE DID NOT STOP THE TAILGATE FROM OPENING UP A FULL 180 DEGREES CAUSING THE ELBOW JOINT TO COME COMPLETELY OUT AND MY RIGHT TAIL LIGHT TO BE SHATTERED. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER SHIP THAT THIS WAS COMMON ISSUE, BUT THEY WOULD NOT RETURN MY CALLS/EMAILS TO GET IT FIXED.

TIPM PROBLEMS OVER HEATING. SAFETY FRONT TURN SIGNALS CHANGED TO FOG LIGHT NOT AWARE UNTIL PARKED IN FRONT OF A PLATE GLASS WINDOW AND NOTICED THE PROBLEM TIPM LESS THAN 90 DAYS SINCE IT WAS CHANGED. HEARING OF AIRBAG FAILURE ANTILOCK BRAKE PROBLEMS ETC ALL RELATED TO THE TIPM SHOULD BE CAUSE FOR CONCERN

WHEN DRIVING AND ACCELERATE TO AROUND 3500 TO 5000 RPM RANDOMLY THE JEEP STALLS AND DOESN'T ACCELERATE NORE PASSES 2500 RPMS. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY. I CLEARED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AROUND 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. OBD CODE WAS P06DD

WHEN DRIVING MY JEEP IT HAS SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. TODAY I WHEN FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE AND WAS TRYING TO PARK ON A BUSY STREET AND THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. I HAD TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION AND THEN START THE VEHICLE AGAIN BEFORE I COULD DRIVE AGAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD POSSIBLY KILL SOMEONE IF THIS HAPPENS ON THE INTERSTATE. IVE READ MANY REPORTS ON LINE OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

ON 3 OCCASIONS MY JEEP WRANGLER'S ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR. SHIFTING TO NEUTRAL WOULD NOT BRING THE PEDAL UP. MANUALLY PULLING THE PEDAL WOULD NOT MAKE A CHANGE. TWICE I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR IN MID TRAFFIC. THE THIRD TIME I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

JEEP HAD RANDOM "JOLT" WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT SPEED. THEN A REALLY HARD JOLT IN FEBRUARY THAT STALLED THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 60 MPH. WOULD NOT START FOR 10 MINUTES, THEN DID. I HAVE TAKEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS WHO SAY THAT THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. NOT SAFE AND THEY SHOULD HAVE TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT.

WHILE STOPPED EXITING A PLAZA I TURNED ON MY TURN SIGNAL AND IT DIDN'T TURN ON AT ALL. IT WAS OPERATIONAL WHEN I PULLED INTO THE PLAZA A SHORT WHILE BEFORE. THEN WHEN PARKED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD ALSO NOT TURN ON WITH THE SAME CONTROL STALK. THE NEXT DAY THE OTHER CONTROL STALK THAT CONTROLS THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS, HORN WHEN PRESSED FROM THE STEERING WHEEL, ALONG WITH ALL OF THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WERE NOT WORKING. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT IT WAS THE CLOCK SPRING INSIDE THE STEERING WHEEL. I RESEARCHED RECALLS AND SAW RECALLS ON THE CLOCK SPRING INVOLVING THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. I THEN TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS THE LIN BUS FAILURE INTERNAL TO INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. ALSO THE LIGHTS ON THE WINDOW SWITCHES HAVE ALL SLOWLY STOPPED WORKING OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR....

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND YET STILL NOT RECALLED THE TIPM JUST FAILED IN THE JEEP (SECOND ONE IN A MONTH) THIS TIME IT DID IT WHILE DRIVING. THE JEEP WENT ALL APE [XXX]. ALARMS GOING OFF, TRYING TO RESTART, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULDN'T WORK. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO CRASH AND DIE. HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AND CONTINUED WHEN I GOT ON TO THE CITY STREETS THE DEALER MECH SAID IT PROBABLY WENT BAD AGAIN(IN LESS THAN A MONTH) I SEE MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUES(OTHER SUVS FROM SAME COMPANY HAVE RECALL ON THE PART, JUST NOT THE WRANGLER) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE VEHICLE POWER ABRUPTLY DROPS WHILE DRIVING LOSING ANYWHERE FROM 100 TO 500 RPMS. IF THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AT A SIGNAL OR TRAVELING AT LOWER SPEEDS THE POWER DROP WILL SHUT DOWN THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM IS RANDOM AND VERY UNSAFE

THE MANUFACTURER OF MY VEHICLE,FCA HAS ISSUED A NUMBER OF RECALLS EG S33 COVERING JEEPWRANGLERS BUILT 2007-2010 AND RECENTLY S40 COVERING ONLY RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEPS BUILT 2022-2016. THESE RECALLS ARE FOR CLOCK SPRING FAILURES RESULTING IN COMPROMISED AIRBAG CIRCUITS WHICH WILL NOT DEPLOY. THE CLOCK SPRING FAILS BECAUSE DUST GETS IN IT. MY JEEP IS A 2012 WRANGLER WITH ABOUT 10,000 MILES ON IT HAS HAD THIS FAILURE. IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN EXTENSIVELY WITHOUT WINDOWS IN THE DESERT. I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS PROBLEM WITH FCA WITHOUT SUCCESS . WHAT IS MY RECOURSE???

MY VEHICLE CLOCK SPRING HAS GONE OUT. MY VEHICLE HAS 45000 MILES AND IS A MODEL YEAR 2012. OTHER YEARS, SPECIFICALLY 2008-2011 HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE VERY SAME THING. ALSO 2012 RHD MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE VERY THING. MY AIRBAG LIGHT CHIMES AND IS ILLUMINATED WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, WHENEVER I TURN LEFT, RIGHT OR STOP OR ACCELERATE.

WHILE BEING TOWED BY OUR RV ON A CITY STREET, A FIRE STARTED UNDER THE HOOD OF THE JEEP. THE TRANSFER CASE WAS IN NEUTRAL. THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION WAS IN NEUTRAL. THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS TURNED 1 NOTCH TO ACCESSORY TO UNLOCK THE STEERING. THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED BY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. NO POLICE REPORT WAS FILED BECAUSE THE FIRE WAS NOT CAUSED BY AN ACCIDENT. BECAUSE OF THE SEVERITY OF THE FIRE DAMAGE, NO CAUSE OF THE FIRE WAS DETERMINED.

TIPM WENT OUT LOST ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHILE TRAVELING 55 MPH! COULD HAVE BE A DEADLY SITUATION! JEEP NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ASAP....

JULY 26, 2016, WE TOOK OUR 2012 JEEP WRANGLER TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE ABS AND TRAC LIGHTS CAME ON. THE DEALERSHIP SHOWED A C102A CODE AND A U140B CODE. THEY REPLACED AND PROGRAMMED THE LEFT REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, FEELING THAT WOULD SOLVE OUR PROBLEM. ON AUGUST 18, 2016, IN STOPPED TRAFFIC, ON A MAJOR STATE HIGHWAY, THE CAR LOST POWER. WE WERE ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT BY THE TIME WE GOT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, NO CODES WERE EVIDENT. ON SEPTEMBER 18, 2016. DRIVING 60 MPH, ON ANOTHER STATE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. FORTUNATELY IT WAS A SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT. WE WERE ABLE TO COAST TO A SIDE ROAD AND AFTER ABOUT 4 ATTEMPTS WERE ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND DROVE ABOUT 2 BLOCKS TO A SAFE PLACE. WE HAD TO CONTACT A TOW TRUCK TO CARRY THE VEHICLE 10...

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE MIDDLE OF A THUNDERSTORM, CREATING A HAZARDOUS SITUATION. TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE SHOP, HAD THE FUSES CHECKED, WIPER MOTOR REPLACED, WINDSHIELD WIPER SWITCH TESTED, AND NOTHING FIXED THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE TURNS OUT TO BE A FAULTY TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE), AND WILL COST OVER 1200 DOLLARS TO REPLACE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH CHRYSLER VEHICLES.

WIPERS TURNS ON AUTOMATICALLY WHEN IN THE OFF POSITION, SAME WITH AC, STEREO RESETS BY IT SELF. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER WHAT THE SHIFT POSITION IS. NO MATTER IF THE CAR IS RUNNING OR IN PARKING MODE.

JUST NOTICED WHILE DRIVING, ALL OF THE CONTROLS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE STEERING WHEEL ARE INOPERABLE. THESE INCLUDE THE RADIO, BLUETOOTH PHONE, INFORMATION MENU, RESET, ETC: UPON FURTHER EXAMINATION I ALSO NOTICED THE HORN NO LONGER WORKS. UNSAFE AND WILL NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION. INQUIRY BY INTERNET SEARCH INDICATE POSSIBLE CLOCKSPRING DEFECT, BUT THAT IS INCONCLUSIVE SO FAR.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V234000 (POWER TRAIN , STEERING), 14V631000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , VISIBILITY), AND 16V352000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE FUEL PUMP RELAY ON THE TIPM MODULE FAILED (TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE). THIS FOR THE 2012 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED ISN'T PART OF A RECALL AND IT ISN'T SOMETHING COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. THE JEEP STARTED TURNING OFF AT LOW IDLE. THIS HAPPENED FOR BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT OR AT A STOP LIGHT. IT NOW HAPPENS WHEN GOING DOWN THE ROAD WHERE THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF AT RANDOM. IT ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. I AM WORKING ON THE REPAIR NOW.

I JUST LEFT WORK AND HAD TRAVELED LESS THAN A MILE WHEN MY ENGINE SHUT OFF. I WAS ONLY TRAVELING 20MPH AND COASTED INTO THE FIRST OPEN DRIVEWAY I COULD FIND. I OPENED THE HOOD TO A LOT OF SMOKE AND A SMALL FIRE FROM MY WIRING HARNESS. MY 2012 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT IS COMPLETELY STOCK AND ALWAYS MAINTAINED THROUGH MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP. THE OFFICIAL WORD FROM JEEP WAS THAT MY STARTER SHORTED OUT WHICH CAUSED MY WIRING HARNESS TO OVERHEAT AND CATCH FIRE.

THE SUDDEN FAILURE OF TURN SIGNALS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, HEADLIGHTS, TAILLIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS AND ALL CONTROLS ON THE TWO STALKS AND THE STEERING WHEEL. I DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT HAPPENED AND REALIZED IT WHEN I NOTICED THE LACK OF SOUND AND BLINKING DASH LIGHT ON USING THE TURN SIGNAL. NO FUSES WERE BLOWN.I DO NOT DRIVE IN THE DARK MUCH.I AM HAVING IT REPAIRED TODAY. THE SERVICE WRITER SAID IT WAS A COMPUTER. HOW CAN JEEP TIE SO MANY ESSENTIAL CONTROLS TOGETHER? IF IT HAD OCCURRED AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN IT COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. PERHAPS IT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED TO SOMEONE.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN A LOCAL CITY STREET. TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING RENDERING THE AIR BAG INOPERABLE. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT NHTSA ALREADY HAS 2 RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM BUT FOR RIGHT HAND DRIVE WRANGLERS ONLY. MY JEEP HAS THE SAME PROBLEM, CONCERNING THE SAME PARTS, FOR THE SAME REASONS THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE AIR BAG FAILURES OCCURRED. JEEP REFUSES TO COVER MY JEEP UNDER THESE RECALLS. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V176000 AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V528000

THE TIPM UNIT WENT OUT, CAUSING LOTS OF ISSUES. THE ISSUES WE'RE AWARE OF ARE: THE DOORS WOULDN'T LOCK, SHIFTER WAS STUCK IN PARK, RADIO/CD/BLUETOOTH WOULDN'T WORK, AND THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS WOULDN'T TURN OFF LEADING TO A COMPLETE DRAIN OF THE BATTERY. THANKFULLY, THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE WE WERE DRIVING IT (IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS IF IT DID). IT COST US $1100.00 TO REPLACE THE TIPM UNIT, WHICH WAS A HUGE FINANCIAL BURDEN ON US, BUT EVEN WORSE WAS THAT WE HAD TO GO WITHOUT THE JEEP (ONE OF OUR MAIN MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION) FOR ALMOST TWO MONTHS BECAUSE THERE'S A WAITING LIST FOR THE REPLACEMENT PART. WE CHECKED WITH 3 DIFFERENT REPAIR SHOPS JUST TO BE SURE, AND ALL SAID THE SAME THING: 1.) THAT THERE'S A WAITING LIST AT LEAST 40 PEOPLE LONG FOR THIS TIPM UNIT, AND 2.) THAT THEY'VE...

ON 04/09/16, THE WIPERS STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING, AND DRIVERS SIDE HEADLAMP STAYS ON CONTINUOUSLY, AND ON HIGH BEAM. HAVE TO UNHOOK BATTERY TERMINAL IN ORDER TO GET LIGHT TO GO OUT. WAS TOLD THE TIPM TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE HAS FAILED.

I WAS HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH MY 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. SPECIFICALLY MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE NOT WORKING. IT WAS SNOWING OUTSIDE AND THEY JUST WOULDN'T WORK. I HAD TO MANUALLY GET OUT OF MY CAR SEVERAL TIMES TO CLEAR THE SNOW BEFORE I MADE IT HOME. I GOT THE MOTOR REPLACED BUT IT THEY STILL WERE NOT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT MY ENTIRE TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) "WENT BAD". THEY TOLD ME THAT THE COULD NOT ORDER THE PART BECAUSE ITS ON BACK-ORDER. I CALLED JEEP AND THEY SAID THAT THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER WITH NO ESTIMATED TIME OF DELIVERY. THE TIPM CONTROLS ALL OF THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLS ON MY VEHICLE AND I CAN NOT DRIVE WITHOUT IT. IT IS A 2012 SO I AM SURPRISED THAT THIS PART IS FAILING, LET ALONE UNAVAILABLE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. FURTHERMORE THE PART...

THERE SEEM TO BE A NUMBER OF ELECTRICAL ISSUE MOSTLY AROUND THE DOOR LOCKING FAILURE; THE HORN AND THE TOUCH RADIO

TPIM MODULE HAS FAILED CAUSING SEVERAL STRANGE ISSUES WITH THE CAR. MOST NOTABLE FOR SAFETY IS THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPER PUMP WILL NOT WORK.

AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL M031 IN EARLY 2012. THE PART RECALLED HAD FAILED AGAIN CAUSING AIRBAG LIGHT TO BE ILLUMINATED, LOSS OF SPEED CONTROL, LOSS OF STEERING WHEEL AUDIO CONTROLS, LOSS OF HORN, AND LOSS OF "STEP" AND "RESET BUTTONS FOR THE INFORMATION CENTER. THIS ISSUE STARTED OUT WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN THE LEFT OR RIGHT POSITION AND WITHIN A FEW WEEKS HAS BECAME A CONSTANT PROBLEM TO NO AVAIL.

TIPM FAILURE. THE TIPM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT WASN'T OPERATING THE ENGINE COOLING FAN (RADIATOR FAN). THE COOLING FAN MODULE ALSO HAD TO BE REPLACED. I UNDERSTAND A FAILED TIPM COULD CAUSE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY INADVERTENTLY, WINDOW OPENING FAILURE, RANDOM HORN ALARMS, STABILITY CONTROL PROBLEMS, AND MORE. AN ENGINE TROUBLE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THE POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE (PART NUMBER 68244883AA) AND THE COOLING FAN MODULE (PART NUMBER 68143894AB) HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THEY HAD FAILED.

12 JKRU 52,000 MILES. IT FIRST HAPPENED AT NIGHT WHILE WIFE WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE JEEP WENT CRAZY MODE ALL LIGHTS IN CLUSTER ILLUMINATED WARNING LIGHTS FLASHING AND WITH HOT OIL MSG, WARNING DINGS GOING OFF, HEARD ELECTRIC FAN RUNNING . IT SEEMED THAT NOTHING WAS CONTROLLABLE, AUTO TRANS WENT INTO AND WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. SCARED THE HELL OUT OF MY WIFE. GOT HOME AFTER SHUT OFF I TRIED TO RESTART BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I DISCONNECTED BATTERY TO RESET CPU THAT DID NOT WORK. I STOPPED BY AUTO ZONE TO GET CODES SCANNED . THEY TOLD ME EVERY SYSTEM WAS REPORTING FAILURE AND NEEDS TO GO TO DEALER. AFTER RESTART EVERY THING WAS NORMAL. AFTER 100 YARDS DOWN THE STREET IT ALL HAPPENED AGAIN. PULLED INTO STORE PARKING LOT, TURNED JEEP OFF AND WOULD NOT RESTART TILL 4TH TRY. DROVE IT STRAIT TO DEALER IN FIRST...

AIR BAG LIGHT AND WARNING IS GOING ON AND OFF WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. DEALER SAYS THE CLOCK SPRING NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS A RECALL ON RIGHT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES AND NUMEROUS REPORTS OF ALL CLOCK SPRINGS FAILING.

YESTERDAY WHEN DRIVING MY JEEP TO THE GAS STATION ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS STARTED TURNING ON AND THE JEEPS BATTERY LIGHT TURNED ON. KNOWING THAT IT COULD BE A PROBLEM WITH THE ALTERNATOR I HEADED HOME IMMEDIATELY. A BLOCK FROM MY HOUSE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION THE BATTERY FINALLY DIED THANKFULLY SOMEONE WAS ABLE TO PUSH ME OUT OF THE INTERSECTION BECAUSE IT WAS DARK OUT AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANY LIGHTS. I HAD THE CAR CHECKED AND IT IS THE ALTERNATOR. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR A PENTASTAR 3.6 L V6 ALTERNATORS BUT I'M BEING TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. BY SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDING MY VEHICLE FROM THE RECALL THEY HAVE RISKED MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF THOSE AROUND ME.

FAULTY TIPM.. HAVING TROUBLE WITH VEHICLE NOT STARTING. THE STARTING ISSUE STARTED IN 10/2015 BUT WASN'T A REGULAR ISSUE TIL 01/2016. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP AS IS IS A NEWER MODEL WITH ONLY 27000 MILES ON IT. THEY REPLACED A SENTRY MODULE..PROBLEM PERSISTED. NOW BEING TOLD IT'S THE TIPM. APPARENTLY THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD ISSUE AND WAS TOLD TO REPORT IT.. STILL WAITING TO SEE IF COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY..

2012 JEEP WRANGLER HAVE HAD INTERMITTENT TROUBLE FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. TURN CAR OFF AND HEADLIGHTS STAY ON. FINALLY FIGURED OUT THAT IF I TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND ROLL FORWARD A LITTLE I CAN SOMETIMES TURN LIGHTS OFF. SAME PROBLEM TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS ON. ROLLING THE CAR A FEW INCHES USUALLY CORRECTED THE HEADLIGHTS. WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL START ON THEIR OWN OR STOP DURING USE WITH NO WARNING. THIS BEGAN IN LATE 2014 BUT THE PROBLEM WAS SO INTERMITTANT WE COULD NOT DUPLICATE IT ON DEMAND UNTIL AUGUST 2015. THE DEALER REPLACED THE MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH AND WIRING HARNESS BUT BEFORE WE EVEN DROVE OUT OF THE PARKING LOT BOTH THE LIGHTS AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE DOING THE SAME THING. THEY KEPT IT A FEW DAYS AND "SEALED THE CLUSTER". DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM FOR A FEW WEEKS AND THE CAR IS NOW 700 MILES AWAY AT...

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON MY RESIDENTIAL STREET MY ENGINE STALLED AND I LOST ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE. I HAD NO POWER FOR LIGHTS, FLASHERS, TURN SIGNALS, INTERIOR LIGHTS, ETC. BASICALLY, THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALLY DEAD. I WAS CLOSE ENOUGH TO PUSH THE JEEP TO MY RESIDENCE AND CHECKED THE BATTERY AND I HAD FULL VOLTAGE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY TIPM. FORTUNATELY, I WAS NOT ON THE INTERSTATE DOING INTERSTATE SPEEDS AT NIGHT...

VEHICLE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER STARTING ENGINE AND DRIVING 30 FEET FROM INITIAL PARKED LOCATION. VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND EXPLOSION OCCURRED UNDER THE HOOD WHILE DRIVER WAS STILL IN VEHICLE. NO PREVIOUS INDICATION THERE WAS ANY ISSUE WITH VEHICLE. UPON DRIVER EMERGENCY EXIT OF VEHICLE, FURTHER EXPLOSIONS AND LARGE FLAMES ENGULFED THE VEHICLE RESULTING IN A TOTAL LOSS OF VEHICLE WITHIN MINUTES.

FAULTY CLOCKSPRING AIRBAG LIGHT APPEARS SPORADICALLY WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND I HAVE SOMEONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, NOTIFYING ME THAT THEIR AIRBAG IS DEACTIVATED. HORNS VOLUME IS WEAK. POSSIBLY A COINCIDENCE, BUT THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE ALERT APPEARS AT START-UP. ALL TIRES (GOODYEAR LT285/70R17) READ 45-50 PSI. THIS PART IS RECALLED IN 2007 AND 2008 JEEP WRANGLERS, BUT NOT FOR 2009-2016. IT IS THE EXACT SAME PART.

HAD TO REPLACE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS ON MY WRANGLER AND MY WIFE'S 2012 WRANGLER. BOTH ARE RHD. NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SHAME ON JEEP

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS DRIVING AND STAR RAINING. TURN ON THE WIPER ,NO FUNCTION I CHECK WASHER, NOT WORKING. THEN I NOTICE NO HEAD LIGHTS,NO HORN'S,NO TAIL LIGHTS. 4 WAYS AND BRAKES LIGHT DOES WORK.

BASICALLY GOING 80 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR DECIDES TO SHUT OFF, ENDANGERING THE LIVES OF MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS. FORCING US TO STOP AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALL A TOW, KEEP IN MIND THIS ALL HAPPENED AT 2 AM IN THE MIDDLE OF A DARK EMPTY HIGHWAY. I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND AFTER RUNNING THE DIAGNOSTICS THEY TELL ME IT IS A FAULTY TIPM. NOW THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME A $1,000 IN REPAIRS TO REPLACE A PART THAT COMES FAULTY FROM THE FACTORY.

SEVERAL PROBLEMS OCCURRED ELECTRONICALLY WITH MY WRANGLER IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS. 1. HEADLIGHTS TURNED ON WHEN I CAME OUT OF THE STORE 2. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON (4CYL. MISFIRE) BUT CLEARED ITSELF AFTER 100 MILES 3. WHILE SITTING IDLE AT A RED LIGHT, THE DASH WARNING LIGHT LIT UP AND FLICKERED AS WELL AS CHIMED FOR A MINUTE. 4. WHILE CRUISING ON THE INTERSTATE ABOUT 70MPH, THE JEEP SHUT OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS AND TURNED BACK ON BEFORE I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND TURN SIGNALS INDEPENDENTLY ACTIVATED AND ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTING WILL FALL TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. ....UPDATED 12/11/15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. UPDATED 01/28/16.*JB

TIPM FAILURE WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC VEHICLE STALLED CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK USING FOB OR ROCKER SWITCH / WINDSHIELD WASHER WILL NOT WORK/ HEATER WILL NOT WORK/ RADIO DIMS WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED ON/ DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN ON UPON OPENING DOOR

JUST OVER A MONTH AGO I WAS GOING TO WORK, AND NOTICED THAT MY TURN SIGNALS WERE NOT WORKING. I TRIED MOVING THE TURN SIGNAL UP AND DOWN TO NO AVAIL. I ALSO NOTICED THAT MY HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON. I PULLED OVER AND THOUGHT MAYBE A FUSE WENT BAD OR SOMETHING AND FOUND EVERY SINGLE FUSE TO BE FINE. I THEN ALSO NOTICED THAT THE DIGITAL COMPASS READOUT ON THE DASH WAS NOT FUNCTIONING, AND I COULD NOT SCROLL THROUGH THE MENUS WITH THE MAIN COMPUTER USING THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. THE HAZARD LIGHTS WOULD WORK PROPERLY...AND THE LIGHTS WOULD FLASH PROPERLY WHEN I LOCKED THE DOORS WITH MY KEY FOB...WHICH TOLD ME THAT THE CIRCUIT WAS STILL WORKING. AFTER ABOUT 25 MINUTES OF FIDDLING EVERYTHING SUDDENLY STARTED WORKING AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY, WHILE AT WORK I WENT TO LUNCH, AND WHEN I RETURNED TO WORK AS I...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V631000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY); HOWEVER, THE PART WAS UNAVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE REPAIRS.
