Faulty tipm (totally integrated power module) that needed replacement. Vehicle would not start. Repair cost $1350. Dealer was familiar with the problem once I mentioned the issue I was having and mentioned he had just replaced one in a durango. I did a little online research and am finding out that this is a common, expensive and known Chrysler issue. I'm hoping a recall is conducted and that owners who have had to pay for repairs are reimbursed.

After much research, I have found that my tipm is bad. My vehicle started experiencing issues with starting and stalling in January of 2014 (@ just over 30K miles). Initially I did not think much of the problem as it was in January and cold here in Colorado. The problem mildly continued in Feb and March... fast forward to July 2014 and the problem became more prevalent. I finally have an appointment with the local dealership to look at the problem (tomorrow - 28august2014). It is now a daily occurrence that my vehicle will not start without many attempts and once it does start, it stalls and the engine turns off.

Vehicle would not crank over when attempted to start. After several attempts, vehicle eventually started. Flash updates were previously performed on the vehicle to address this issue; however, updates did not prevent issue. Dealership diagnosed problem as faulty tipm. Tipm replaced.

It began a couple of weeks prior to 8/14/14 where the car would take several tries to start. I would press the start button and the car would not turn over and start. Finally on 8/14/14 it was at its worst taking many more tries and barely started when I left work and again picking up my child from school. I made it home but it wouldn't start again after that. We had the car towed to the dealership on 8/19/14. We were informed on 8/20/14 that it was an electrical issue that needed to be replaced costing $1300. The items repaired as listed on the invoice were tipm kit tip 080350 and core return.

I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited with approximately 32K miles. I began seeing an issue several weeks ago where the engine would crank but wouldn't start (using push button starter). Eventually it would start. Over the last several weeks the problem has intermittently reappeared but seems to be getting worse as it's taking longer to start once the issue is seen. I've noticed that if I use the key instead of the push button it'll start right away. In what I initially thought was unrelated I also experienced the engine simply cutting off while driving. Fortunately I was only driving about 5 mph on both occasions in which this occurred. Please contact me if any additional details are required. Thank you,

Highway driving......vehicle shuts off......no warning......no idiot lights.....no brakes......happened twice......two different Chrysler dealers say there is nothing wrong......New York times article says that Chrysler is "looking into the problem".....at a high rate of speed I have twice had to muscle the car off the road and drift to a stop in order to apply the brake to restart the engine.....I hope I don't become a statistic.......

After several attempts at starting the vehicle with the push button start and it would not turn over. At first, the tire pressure indicator light was coming on. I took it to discount tires and they said the air pressure on all 4 vehicles was fine. Two days later, tire pressure indicator came on again. Once I was leaving work, I attempted to start vehicle and after about 5 tries, it finally started. At this point I was a bit leery and decided to drive the vehicle to Jeep dealer and have them check it out. At the time the rep stated that he could not look at the vehicle until Monday because he two days behind. After describing to him what was going on, he indicated that the starter seemed to be sticking and he would not recommend that I continue to drive the vehicle for safety that it may stall while driving. I drove the car home and parked it. The next day, I tried to start the vehicle to drop it off at the dealer. No luck. After several attempts, I gave up and ended up getting a rental for the weekend. After extensive research on the internet it appears to be a faulty part in the vehicle that has enforced a class action law suite from several Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge owners. Predominately owners of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The vehicle is still not repairable, and I don't see the point in towing it to the dealer and pay them $100 to diagnose the problem has been declared a nationwide issue. I too am a dedicated Jeep customer and really want to stand behind the product, hopefully this won't turn into a GM issue.

My car (sitting in the garage at a shopping mall) would not start, I tried to start it 5 times, then let it sit a bit and tried it again and it started. Went directly to eastside Chrysler Jeep and they repaired it for me. It took a day but cost me $1,310. I see there are quite a few cars with the same problem. My car's warranty was still in effect, but the dealership did not honor it. Saying it was a second owner vehicle. Sorry, I bought the warranty when I bought it and it should have been honored. Now knowing what I know now that it is a defect in the electrical system, I am lucky I wasn't stuck out on the freeway. I feel like I was taken advantage of and think the company owes me a refund since my car is under warranty.

I began having difficulties starting my vehicle about a week ago, the engine would continually turn over without actually starting (push button start). Each time I would have to press the start button multiple times and let the vehicle cycle through multiple failed attempts until the engine would finally start. However, this morning, after cycling through multiple attempts and getting the vehicle to start, the engine shut off while I was driving. After the engine shut off the dashboard read as if it was still running. I was unable to start the vehicle after that and had to push it out of the way (was luckily still in a parking lot).

Vehicle power shuts down while driving at highway speed, in any and all driving conditions. No power steering, no power brakes, no power, nothing. There is no warning when power goes out. Driver can be stranded in middle of freeway, or off-ramp, or busy intersection. Extremely dangerous. Worse than GM issue. Vehicle cannot be restarted without shifting into park. 2011 Jeep stall on 70mph freeway requires driver to shift into park before a re-start can be attempted (neutral will not allow rolling start). Extreme danger of high-speed rear end collision. Well documented issue on web 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee tipm. Recall is needed for this safety critical item. gotaclassaction.com/Chrysler-investigated-over-defective-totally-integrated-power-module-tipm-in-2011-2012-Jeep-grand-Cherokee-and-Dodge-durangos/

Vehicle was traveling on highway at 55 mph when it suddenly stalled in traffic. Could not restart after pushing to side of road. Towed to dealer and told that total integrated power module had failed and needed to be replaced.

I've been researching online of similar problems and it all point to the (tipm). My car does not start, and when it starts, it stalls right away. The truck even stalled while running, luckily I was going less than 35 mph with very little traffic, I could only imagine if this could have happened while I was driving on the freeway going like 60 mph. I drive with my wife, 2 children and a newborn and do not want to put their lives at risk because of this issue going on for a while and nobody seems to do anything about this. Now for some reason something is draining my battery, I already replaced 2 new batteries and the problem still persists. I cant take it to the dealer because its out of warranty and it seems to be too expensive to fix, and im someone that lives by every paycheck and still barely affords to pay this truck with a very serious issue. This really needs to get reported to Chrysler Jeep and needs to immediately be put on recall. My wife does not want to get on the Jeep Grand Cherokee anymore due to all of these issues and complaints going on. I just don't know who to go to.

On Saturday morning after pulling out of a parking space my car stalled and lost power steering. I put it in park and restarted engine it was fine. Went to other store, parked it and the same thing happened once I returned to leave. When I got home I shut off the ignition switch and after app. 8 seconds I heard a sound coming from behind the fuse box area or at least behind that area. Sounded electrical "vooop, vooop" I also noticed when going up an incline around 30 mph the car had a huge delay, I had to push the gas pedal practically to the floor, and than it kicked in and zoomed off. I felt like I was loosing power and than the car took off on its own! crazy feeling!!! I feel as though the computer that is in charge of the car is out of wrack and the car has become inconsistent to drive because of what could occur next. I also lost brakes this winter while driving due to brake booster failure which eventually became a recall. I was scared then and I'm afraid this incident may result in something bigger and worse. :(

Faulty tipm (totally integrated power module) caused the car to not start and/or stall after it was started.

- Atlanta, GA, USA

The car will not start. The car will crank as if it is about to start and then will not start. After some time, it may start and then appears like fuel was not getting to the engine and then stall. Then when I try to start it again, it would not start. My mechanic tells me it is the tipm. Complaints with the tipm for the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a well known issue. Feel free to look it up on various online forums. Even the service departments at the Jeep dealership knows that tipm is a common issue with the car. Please initiate a recall of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee for this problem. The tipm controls the power / switching / communications amongst various parts of the car. It is extremely dangerous for anybody to drive this car with a faulty tipm. Thank you.
