 Description of the problemOn or about april 20, 2015 i had just driven my jeep about 20 miles to get groceries came home unloaded and went back to start jeep to go pick up grand daughter at school and the jeep would not start. It would crank for about 30 seconds and then stop. Tried to start 5 or 6 times. Took my truck to get grand daughter. Called chrysler and they sent dealer to get jeep. About an hour later jeep started then but they took it to check it out. After 5 days they told me i need a new battery. They wanted $355. 31 for new battery. Took jeep to 2 parts stores and they checked the battery and said it was stronger than what was posted on battery. On may 7, 2015 i was out at store and jeep would not start. Tried about 6 or 7 times and then it started without my foot on brake but would not go into gear. Restarted and was fine. Called dealer and took back on may 8, 2015. Dealer kept jeep over night and told me i needed a new battery. Bought a new battery through my son in laws shop cost me $122. 14. The dealer charged me $90. 00 for the test. So i am out of $212. 14 as of now. Today june 13,2015 i went to start my jeep and it would not start. Same as both times before. I know the problem is with the tipm and no test will show that there is a problem with it. Called jeep hot line and they said there is no recall on this and no reports. To take it to the dealer and have them test it again that they could not help me with this problem because my jeep was out of factory warranty. I only have 32989 miles on my jeep. It only had 32627 on the second visit to dealer. I have extended warranty on the jeep but they charge $50. 00 if the test don't show up a problem. So i am between a rock and a hard place. Where do i go from here. I know there are a lot of reports on here about the same problem i am having. Thank you for your time.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
