Description of the problem | The jeep has a faulty tipm which controls the whole car. It would not start just turns over. I had it towed in for repair and they told me it was something other than the tipm. And that they had fixed it. It has happened many times since and they keep saying they fixed it or that they cant find anything wrong because it works when its at the shop. Now i have it in for the same problem and they admit its the tipm. The car is no longer under warranty and i have to pay for it. The problem is their are no replacement tipms because the hole nation is having this problem and they don't know how to correct the tipms. They have told me they don't know when they will be able to make new tipms that work properly. Some people have had their jeeps turn off while driving, others have had it turn on while it sits in the garage. This is so dangerous something has to be done. Please help us. |
