TIPM Faulty
2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee (Page 2 of 2)
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Jeep dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 Grand Cherokee hasn't seen the same complaint volume as the 2011, at least not yet.
It's worth noting both model years are part of a class-action lawsuit that focuses on a defective TIPM and a long wait for replacement parts.
The 2012 also received national attention after it failed a Swedish Magazine's "moose test". The test measures a vehicle's ability to swerve out of the way of an obstacle you wouldn't want to hit while driving down the road ... like a moose.

I purchased my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited February 14th 2015, used from a Car Dealership. I received a notice in the mail a month or so later telling me about the recalls on my Jeep. The "TIPM" was one of them. I did have the Jeep just stop running twice right after I bought it, and I was pretty perplexed and pissed at the same time! So I was glad to get the recall notice and brought the Jeep in for repair. Well, it went quite awhile with no issues, until about a month ago. Now the Jeep has stopped running several times again now! Usually when decelerating up an off ramp, or turning down the on ramp. But has shut off just driving straight on a flat road too. Suppose I've got to bring it back in!!
