My vehicle has stopped 3 times this year without warning. Twice while I was driving and once while my daughter was driving. There is a click sound and the radio and everything on in the vehicle goes. The vehicle begins to slow down. Luckly when this happened there were no cars around so each time we are able to stop the vehicle wait a second and start the vehicle without an issue. This is a very dangerous issue and this needs to be fixed ASAP.

I WAS DRIVING THE OTHER DAY AND ALL THE SUDDEN I HIT A BUMP AND THE KEY FOB FALLS OUT OF THE IGNITION CUTTING THE ENGINE COMPLETELY OFF. SO I WAS COASTING WITH NO ENGINE OR POWER. LUCKILY I PUT IT IN TO NEUTRAL AND IT STARTED BACK UP. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS. ALSO MY KEY WILL NOT RELEASE WHEN I AM TRYING TO TURN THE CAR OFF SO I HAVE TO LEAVE IT ON SOMETIMES AND IT HAS KILLED MY BATTERY. MOST OF THE TIME IT WILL RELEASE AFTER A CLICKING NOISE I CAN TURN IT TO THE OFF POSITION AND IT WILL RELEASE. IT HAS COST ME TWO BATTERIES AND A NEW KEY

THE CAR WILL NOT START WITH IGNITION FOB. THIS HAPPENS UNPREDICTABLY. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR A LONG TIME. WE THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY BUT NOW, WITH A NEW BATTERY IT STILL OFTEN WILL NOT START. IF WE WAIT FOR SOME UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME IT EVENTUALLY CRANKS AND STARTS. WE NEVER KNOW WHEN AND IF WE CAN LEAVE OR VISA VERSA FOR RETURNING HOME. WHEN EVER THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY IN LEGAL PARKING PLACE. HOWEVER, IT HAS CUT OFF WILL DRIVING.

TOOK OUR JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE KEY FOB KEPT GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WOULDN'T RELEASE. THEY SAID IT WAS THE WIN MODULE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE KEY WOULD HAVE TO BE REPROGRAMMED FOR THAT WIN MODULE! WELL, SINCE THEN, WE'VE NOTICED THAT WHEN WE ARE ABLE TO GET THE KEY OUT (FROM HITTING ABOVE THE IGNITION TO GET IT TO RELEASE, OR WAITING AN HOUR FOR IT TO EJECT ON IT'S OWN) THE RADIO WILL KEEP PLAYING, SO WE HAVE TO TURN IT OFF, ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS STAY ON, IT STILL DINGS IF THE DOOR IS OPEN AND ACTS LIKE THE KEY IS IN IT AFTER BEING REMOVED. NOW WE'RE RUNNING INTO MORE ISSUES WHILE WE'RE DRIVING WHERE IT STARTS GLITCHING AND THE COMPUTER MAKES ALL KINDS OF TERRIBLE SCARY SOUNDS AND HAS ACTUALLY POWERED DOWN ON US! NOW THE BATTERY IS DEAD AND WON'T START EVEN WITH A JUMP! MOST ISSUES STARTED OUT WHILE IN PARK AND JUST TRYING TO REMOVE KEY FOB, THAT LASTED A FEW MONTHS AND IT STILL DROVE FINE. UNFORTUNATELY, THE ISSUES HAVE CONTINUALLY GOTTEN WORSE AND I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT WITH MY FAMILY SINCE IT POWERED DOWN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET!

RIGHT REAR TURN SIGNAL BECAME TOTALLY INOPERATIVE AFTER WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. BULB AND BULB SOCKET CONNECTOR WAS REPLACED, FUSES WERE CHECKED. HAZARD LIGHT WILL NOT FUNCTION ON THIS BULB ALTHOUGH DRIVING LIGHT FUNCTION WORKS ON THIS BULB INDICATING BULB IS NOT THE ISSUE. ALSO, DRIVER'S SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT WILL NOT SHUT OFF AFTER IGNITION TURNED OFF. RECEIVED CODE B162B INDICATING POSSIBLE ISSUE WITH THE 'INTEGRATED POWER MODULE' ALSO REFERRED TO AS THE 'TIPM'. NOT HAVING A WORKING TURN SIGNAL CREATES AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE DEALER. FAULTY TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS AND HEADLIGHT ISSUES ARE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE TIPM THAT WAS INSTALLED IN THESE VEHICLES BY CHRYSLER FOR WHICH AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED.
