Description of the problem | I tried to start my jeep grand cherokee 2011 with the push start and it turned over but would not crank. I finally got it crank after several tries and waiting five minutes. I have since experienced intermittent problems starting my jeep each morning or after it sits for more than four hours. In the past week i have experienced difficulty starting everyday. It getting harder to start. I read online that a lot of people are having the same problem and someone recommended using the remote start button to start your vehicle. That is the only way i have been successful getting my jeep cranked each day. I took my vehicle to the jeep dealership and they said i need a tipm and it is not covered under warranty. I am a female nurse who drives my car for a living and i do not feel safe in my vehicle. I go in unsafe areas for my job and it is not a good feeling worry if my jeep start. It is going to cost over 1200. 00 to get my car repaired and part is on back order. I worry everyday that i will get stranded and this is suppose to be an award winning suv. Please help me! |
