Tipm issue. All dash lights come on. All gauges drop to zero except fuel gauge. Ac stops working. Car still runs and is drivable, but you can't see your speed limit. I feel this should be recalled as this could potentially be very dangerous. This can happen while stationary or driving. Issue seems to come and go, but problem sticks around more than not.

All of the dashboard lights are on. Speedometer, odometer, GPS, automatic door lock, remote start, cruise control, none of that works. Tire pressure warning lights are constantly flashing different pressures. Everything lights up upon starting and stays on while moving until it's turned off. This initially happened when I was driving on a highway, and my first reaction was that I didn't have any brakes. It was quite frightening. Subsequent to that the lights would go on and off intermittently, but after a few months they are now permanently on. The dashboard also makes a ping noise every minute or so. I purchased the car in 2017 and this had not been a problem until a few months ago. The known danger is in not knowing how fast I am going. The unknown danger is could the brakes at some point not work, or if I become involved in an accident will the air bags not deploy or will the engine at some point just stop running. I have been told it could be a faulty tipm. I also have a 2008 jeep liberty that does not have this problem, however it suffers from the same dashboard random ping noise.

I had traveled about 500 miles and all of the lights concerning the 4 wd lit up on the dash and the RPM's jumped up over 3000 RPM, I was towing a trailer and using the towing mode as it says to in the manual, there were no chrysler dealers open for doing service, I pulled over and shut off the trailer towing and went a ways further and the lights were still on so I pulled the fuse and continued along the lights slowly one by one shut off. I stopped in bloomington, illinois at the chrysler dealer the next day and they could not give a god answer for what had happened. I continued on to florida to visit with my sons and the situation got worse it started acting like the engine was miss firing on a cylinder or two, chrysler dealer in fl was too busy to check it out and wanted me to pay up front even though the power train is still under warranty til 100,000 miles. I left fl returning to il and had it checked by a friend who had a garage and his testing showed a bad modulator in the transmission, I took it back to the chrysler dealer and they put it on their computer and dis some adjusting and told me to take it easy the transmission is very weak and needs repair but chrysler will not do anything unless the transmission quits completely. I left il and returned to south dakota and the transmission is no better but actually getting worse, I went to hot springs sd yesterday which is about a 60 mile one way trip, visited with friends for 4 hours and returned home and before I got back home all the lights for the 4 wd were on , I think chrysler needs to take care of this problem before I am left stranded alongside a road someplace or have a wreck from the transmission gong out while driving. This is the worse chrysler that I have ever owned and will be the last one if the problem is not corrected and soon.

I started off by driving down hill on highway 40. All vehicle lights lit up on dashboard, enging stalled, no brakes or steering. I shifted the vehicle to neutral and was able to come to a stop on the shoulder of the road when the vehicle started up the next hill. No turns, the road was straight. Turned the key off and restarted the vehicle, and the jeep ran fine. Later that day in a parking lot, the same thing happened. Started the vehicle, started to pull out of the parking lot, all of the dashboard lights came on, the engine stalled and had no brakes or steering. Placed the vehicle in neutral until the jeep came to a stop, turned the key off, then restarted the vehicle and the jeep ran ok until we got home.

While driving my 2012 jeep liberty at about 30-40 MPH, on three different occasions thus far, all dashboard lights suddenly appear and the vehicle automatically turns off in mid driving. No current recalls for this particular jeep liberty model. This is major issue safety issue and I have hopes that the issue will be properly addressed by jeep.
