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.

Ran into issues of random stalls and not turning over. Turns out the fuel pump relay had to be REDONE, AGAIN! After it left me stranded and wouldn't turn over at all. Looking into this further, the original recall (which I would call hack job) should never been approved and should have just replaced the entire TIPM. Instead they went the cheap way and left Jeep owners to foot the bill to fix it right. Now I still have weird electrical issues. I know its just a matter of time before the whole TIPM goes. Might be time to give up on the love of Jeeps... great looking product but they obviously don't care about longevity of their vehicles or keeping customers...
