HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE JEEP KNOWS ABOUT A TIPM ISSUE BUT WILL NOT FIX IT. TIPM issue. This issue is common and described across the web but is a safety hazard! The headlights will flash 3-5 times then completely shut off. Restarting the Jeep and disconnecting the battery does not help. Jeep dealer says circuit in the TIPM is the issue and that this is common! Lordy have mercy for all the vecs on the road when my headlights started flashing at them and then went out on, of course, an unlit section of the road. But the crazier part is Jeep knew this could happen and doesn't warn the customers. I sure did not know that I might be driving blind at night becoming a safety hazard. The lights then decide to not work for a few days before going back to being reliable for anywhere from weeks to months until you happen to drive at night again and bam they go out again. Luckily the runner/ fog lights are unaffected but as a primary vehicle I can not just keep taking ubers every time it is dark outside! This is such a serious safety issue to loose your lights while driving! There are two common fixes for this. One you buy the TIPM or two you buy non stock headlights and reroute them to your own switch but for most of us, buying a part that Jeep knows will break is crazy and not practical (plus WE the consumer didn't know it would) and the alternative of having to buy a different company's lights to buy pass the wiring in just crazy. It is such a serious issue I do not understand why there is no recall! I'm also so unsure if I can even pass a safety inspection anymore. Also the automatic fuel STOPper does not work which is ANOTHER know glitch with the TIPM. This is okay if you know about it because you can hold the handle the whole time while filling up but you can not trust it alone. It isn't like it is all the time either. Just enough to keep you on your toes and plosion the ground with spillage. The first time is scary though.

MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED HAS BEEN IDLING FUNNY FOR A WHILE. TODAY MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED RUNNING WITHOUT TURNING THEM ON, THE HEADLIGHT CAME ON HIGH BEAM WITHOUT TURNING THEM ON AND MY TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING. I WAS JUST TRYING TO GET HIME FROM WORK. SOMETIMES THE STARTER STICKS & GRINDS WHEN I TRY TO START IT..SOMETIMES THE CRUISE CONTROL MAKES THE JEEP SHAKE VIOLENTLY LIKE DRIVING ON 4 FLAT TIRES DOWN THE INTERSTATE. MY HUSBAND UNHOOKED THE BATTERY TODAY TO STOP THE WIPERS AND IT WAS SPARKING AND THE WHOLE FUSE CONTROL PANEL WAS TOO HOT TO TOUCH. HE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT IT IS THE TIPM AND IT'S BEEN A PROBLEM IN ALMOST ALL JEEP WRANGLERS, AND HAS BEEN RECALLED IN MOST THAT HAD ALL MY JEEPS ELECTRICAL ISSUES, BUT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED IN THE 2010, EVEN AFTER MANY CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS, GLAD IT DIDN'T CATCH MY JEEP ON FIRE. NOW I'M WORRIED ABOUT PARKING IN MY GARAGE AS IT IS PART OF MY HOUSE. SO NOW MY JEEP THAT ONLY HAS 74000 MILES AND COST ME 35000 DOLLARS IS A FIRE HAZARD AND CAN'T BE PARKED IN ITS COZY 350000 GARAGE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY HOME, JEEP AND POSSIBLY MY LIFE. CHRYSLER REALLY NEEDS TO STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING AFTER MAKING SO MUCH MONEY OFF OF US DIE HARD LIFE LONG JEEP ENTHUSIASTS.*DT*DT *TR

THE HEAD LIGHTS HAVE STOPPED WORKING. THEY FLASH WHEN I START THE JEEP AND WHEN I TURN ON THE LIGHT SWITCH. THE PROBLEM STARTED WHEN I CHANGED THE BATTERY. I CAN'T DRIVE IT AT NIGHT ANYMORE. THE WEB IS FULL OF THIS SAME COMPLAINANT. I HAD THE SYSTEM SCANNED AND GET CODES B162F & B162B. HOW CAN THIS PROBLEM EXIST? I'M TALKING ABOUT HEAD LIGHTS. THE RUNNING LIGHTS ARE NOT AFFECTED.

WIPERS TURN ON BY THEMSELVES, SOMETIMES WON'T WORK WHEN DRIVING. RADIO CONSTANTLY REPROGRAMMING ITSELF. HEADLIGHTS SOMETIMES COME ON WITHOUT TURNING THEM ON YET OCCASIONALLY WON'T WORK WHEN DRIVING. WHILE DRIVING I'VE HAD THE RADIO SHUT OFF, TRIP ODOMETER RESET, MILEAGE RESET, IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE CPU RESETS IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. LASTLY, IVE HAD THE ENTIRE JEEP STALL WHILE STOPPED AT INTERSECTIONS. MOST TIMES IT TAKES 2-3 CRANKS TO GET IT STARTED. NOTHING LIGHTS UP ON THE DASH WHEN I TRY TO START IT. THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 30-40 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. THE RADIO REPROGRAMMING ITSELF HAPPENS DAILY.

FIRST, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND HIT THE BRAKES, WHEN THE VEHICLE LOCKED ALL THE BRAKES COMPLETELY, THE VEHICLE STARTED SKIDDING ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. A FEW WEEKS LATER, I WAS DRIVING UP THE HILL WHEN ALL THE DASH LIGHTS LIGHTED UP, I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND TURNED IT OFF BUT THEY DID NOT WENT OFF . I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD TO REPLACE THE ABS MODULE (68067458AA) COSTING $215.00 PLUS $160 ON LABOR. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT A FEW CUSTOMERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO TURNING OFF THE HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT. RIGHT KNOW THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. THE CHECK ENGINE CODE IS B162F, RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THE TIPM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, IT COST AROUND $400. WHEN I LOOKED IN THE INTERNET, THERE ARE SEVERAL CASES OF THAT ISSUE SINCE 2010.IT CREATES A POSSIBLE HAZARD DRIVING AT NIGHT.

THE WIPERS KEEP TURNING ON BY THEMSELVES AND SOMETIMES WON'T SHUT OFF. THEY ALSO SOMETIMES COME ON WHEN THE TURN SIGNALS ARE USED, AND AGAIN SOMETIMES WON'T TURN OFF. THEY SOMETIMES WON'T TURN ON. ALSO, BULBS, SUCH AS HEADLIGHT, MARKERS, AND FOG LIGHTS KEEP BLOWING OUT ON AN EXTREMELY FREQUENT BASIS. ALL THESE THING HAPPEN WHEN THE JEEP IS BOTH IN MOTION AND IDLING BOTH ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY DRIVING.....GOING FOREWORD AND DURING MID TURN. WHILE ACCELERATING AND BRAKING. ALL OCCURRENCES HAVE HAPPENED DURING ALL 4 NEW YORK SEASONS. AND AT NO SPECIFIC TIME OF DAY. WE HAVE NO PHOTOS BUT THIS HAPPENS AT VARIOUS TIMES AND HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE THE JEEP WAS BOUGHT NEW IN 2010 AND THIS WAS BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALERSHIP WHICH INFORMED ME THAT THEY DID NOT PHYSICALLY "SEE" IT HAPPEN THEREFORE COULD NOT DIAGNOSE. I WILL PUT A DATE IN THE "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN BOX" BELOW AS A START POINT...BUT KNOW IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN TO THIS DAY. *TR

INITIALLY THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROL BUTTONS FRO THE COMPUTER WOULD NOT FUNCTION. THEN LOST THE FOLLOWING: INTERIOR LIGHTS, ALL SWITCHES IN THE SWITCH BANK, HEATED SEATS, ELECTRONIC TRACTION CONTROL, HILL DESCENT ETC. STOPPED WORKING. DEALER CHECKED IT OUT SAID THAT IT WAS A BAD TIPM. IT IS GOING TO COST $850 TO REPLACE BUT IT IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER, SO NO ESTIMATION AS TO WHEN IT COULD BE REPLACED. THIS UNIT CONTROLS EVERYTHING FROM THE FUEL PUMP TO THE AIR BAGS AND THE DEALER SAID THAT ANY OF THAT COULD STOP WORKING AT ANY MINUTE. *TR

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN NOVEMBER 2010. THERE HAS BEEN SYSTEMIC ELECTRICAL FAILURES THAT ARE GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND PUTTING MY SAFETY AT RISK. I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE RUN AROUND WITH CHRYSLER REGARDING THE PROBLEMS. - I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW FROM A JEEP DEALER IN LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA. SINCE BEING PURCHASED THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS HAVE FAILED INTERMITTENTLY. EACH PART SIMPLY STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND IN ORDER TO MAKE THEM START WORKING AGAIN I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER TURN THE CAR OFF WAIT A FEW MINUTES THEN TURN THE CAR BACK ON (HORN, LIGHTS, WINDOW MASER SWITCH, CAR STEREO, CAR STEREO AMP, DRIVER'S AIRBAG). ONCE I RESTARTED THE CAR IT SEEMED LIKE THE JEEP WOULD RESET AND THE PARTS WOULD START WORKING AGAIN. JEEP HAS BEEN REPLACING THESE ITEMS, BUT THEY WOULD NEVER ROOT CAUSE THE PROBLEM. - MOST RECENTLY CHRYSLER DISCOVERED THAT THE FUSE BOX & ELECTRICAL CLUSTER WERE DEFECTIVE. IT TOOK JEEP 77 DAYS TO REPLACE THE 2 PARTS. THE WORSE PART IS THEY TRIED TO HAVE ME DRIVE THE VEHICLE DURING THOSE 77 DAYS UNTIL THE PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE PUTTING ME AND ANY VEHICLE AROUND ME AT RISK OF INJURY AND DEATH. THIS IN MY OPINION IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. - WHILE I HOPE THIS IS THE END OF MY PROBLEMS.. I THINK THE NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE JEEP CHRYSLER'S ELECTRICAL CLUSTER AND COMPONENTS TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE WORTHY OF BEING IN VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. *TR
