Dash lights going on and off when brights are on. Chimes sounding. Vehicle has 44, 000 miles on it. Repair tech says tipm has to be replaced at $1300. At 33,000 miles alternator had to be replaced for similar symptoms.

When I press the start power button, the car will start and then cut off immediately. This happens repeatedly and then sometimes not at all. Sometimes, I turn off all of the electronics in my vehicle and then try to start it to see if this helps. Seems to have no rhyme or reason why it just won't start. I have searched the internet and found many other people reporting this same problem with their vehicles from Chrysler all the way back to 2011.

The tipm is junk. I have taken 3 places to be checked and the fix is $1000 for a vehicle that has 37,400 miles on it. It started after the original 36,000 miles of course. It will randomly not start in the mornings or after it sits for 8 hours. It's awful. It's become a vehicle that you can't trust.

Not sure the problem, but when the push button start is used it sometimes wont start even though it is trying to turn over. Checking the internet I see lots of people are saying its the new computer board. This could be a problem if I have my wife out on a trip and the board or whatever it is fails. Also could be a fire hazard if its fuel related.

Tipm fuel relay went bad not allowing fuel pump to get power and start vehicle. Dealership denied me buying repair kit cbwpr091aa because my vehicle has not been recalled. This is a 16 dollar fix. Instead they tried selling a whole tipm @ $869. Chrysler needs to recall these vehicles and fix this. I'm fortunate enough to have the know how to do it myself and bought the part online and did this myself.

While driving at about 15 to 20 mph the engine shut off with no steering assist or braking aid or anything powered. After coasting to a stop and shifting into park the engine started normally.
