Description of the problem	This issue has to do with the totally integrated power module (tipm) used in jeep and other makes. This part is responsible for a lot of the power switching/modulation/distribution, and communications with other systems in the electrical system. There are numerous complaints online regarding this part that is on national backorder. Our car has been out of service sitting at a jeep dealer since july with no estimate from chrysler of when the part might be available. There has been no talk of a recall at this point. The part almost always goes bad after the warranty has lapsed and costs anywhere from $900 - $1400 depending on the dealership, etc. Once it goes, the car is rendered useless. We spent $2,000 at a mechanic who thought it was the fuel pump and an additional $1000+ on a rental car before the car was towed to the dealer. We are unable to only have one car, so we have now bought a third car. Fortunately we are in a position to do this. Many people are unable to afford even a rental. The safety issue comes into play because the car may jsut stop while you are driving. This did happen to ours once, but it was before there was an obvious problem and the car worked fine after the incident so we never looked into it. There is also the issue that sometimes it may start, but if you turn the car off it may not start the next time possibly stranding the driver who knows where. At this point people would just like this issue acknowledged and investigated.
