Engine Turns Over, Won't Start
2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee
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 do not understand why a TIPM is not a recall for my year and model when this seem to be a common problem with this line. It is so sad that the Cherokee is such a beautiful vehicle with so many problems. This is leaving a very bitter taste in my mouth. Please advise what kind of compensation can be extended to me because locally this part is costing some $1,300.00 and that does not include labor. I would greatly appreciate any help given in this matter.
Thanks
Denise
Update from Dec 17, 2017: I took the jeep to the dealer on Monday Dec 11th. They replaced the fuel pump relay and all was good.
