This problem started long before 5/20/2020. However, if you pushed the push-to-start button enough times it would eventually start (turn over). Or, you could just let it sit there for a day and it would start up like nothing had ever happened. As time went on, the truck went from starting after waiting a while to never starting. This is a major problem with getting the problem fixed. FCA has such a HUGE backlog in vehicle repairs at its service centers that by the time they get to my truck it starts right up with no issues. By the 3rd time this event happened I had to physically record the event and drive to Autozone to print out the codes.
When I presented this new information to the dealership they replaced the PCM. Now it is back at the dealership for the same problem for the 4th time. The code it throws has nothing to do with not starting/turning over. It throws the p0882 code which is low voltage to the TCM (transmission control module). With low voltage TCM power the vehicle is supposed to start and drive in limp mode. I get dead silence when I hit the push-to-start button and a lot of error messages on the EVIC. I get error messages saying air bags must be service, anti-lock brakes must be serviced, and parking sensors are inoperable (just to name a few).
