I bought a 2012 Grand Cherokee used three weeks ago to the day when while driving the kids to the library Saturday, suddenly all the warning lights (check engine, ABS, traction control, brake, service power steering system etc.) buzzers, speedometer and transmission position started acting erratically. I pulled over and turned the car off. After a few minutes I restarted it and made it to my driveway when it did it again. I got it into my garage, disconnected the battery cable and let it sit until this morning. When I re-connected the cable and started the car only the check engine light came on. So the wife followed me to the dealer where we dropped it off. Luckily it made the 8 mile trip without any other issues. Then a few hours later the service dept. Called me to say it was the tipm, appx. $950, not under warranty, and about 3 to 5 days to fix.

On 11/3/2015 at approximately 5:30am I was driving my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee when I began to smell strong fumes which I suspected was coming from my car. Moments later smoke began overwhelming the cab of the vehicle. I pulled over, got out and it was then I saw flames coming from the top of my car over the area of the driver's seat. The fire department came to put out the fire. The roof and driver's seat was damaged from the flames. Inspections by my auto insurance and Jeep confirmed the source of the fire was from wiring located on the driver side sun visor. This is related to a recall on the vehicle which I had addressed in October 2014 (paperwork attached as well as pictures of the damaged vehicle and fire).

While traveling down a paved country road at night, the indicator lights on the dashboard started blinking, the engine quit and the headlights went out. The hazard lights wouldn't work, so I was sitting in total darkness. The vehicle would not start. I could't get it out of park to move it off the road. The tow truck driver had to drag the Jeep onto the bed of the tow truck because the wheels wouldn't turn. The service dept. At the dealership replaced the tipm and core return. They had no explanation as to why this occurred, which is very unsettling.
