First the windshield wipers stopped working (changed motor and controls) then the horn stopped working, then the blinker and lights along with the instrument panel. Switched the panel and finally the tipm which fixes all issues. Vehicle continued to run but parked it until after reinstalling the tipm.

As soon as I turn the car over, my dash lights, headlights come on. The headlight stalk and the windshield wiper stalk are inoperable. It's a safety hazard to drive my car. And after researching through multiple forums and sites online, it looks like this is a fairly common problem, with a non-standard resolution. Not looking forward to the hours I'm going to have to spend getting this addressed. I was driving 8/14 when I noticed the issues.

Front wipers do not work. It is not the motor. Dealership says it is the tipm. Tipms have been on back order from chrysler for years with no end in sight!

2007 jeep wrangler unlimited sahara will stall while driving down the road at any given time/speed. Wipers will start going off without turning them on, followed by engine stalling, leaving me unable to accelerate. Meanwhile, my wheels lock up leaving me unable to steer. Very dangerous. Already had the tipm reprogrammed in 2010, and then again 2 days ago. (october 16th, 2015). On the way home from getting it "fixed", wipers go off again and engine stalls. Paid $825 for nothing. This needs to be dealt with.

This has occurred while driving and while keys were not even in the ignition. I was driving down the road and the horn started honking, wipers went off and windshield fluid started spraying every where. It has done it several times. It has also done this just when opening the doors and no keys in the ignition. It blinks through the gears on the transmission and has locked up the traction control. I have had it in to the dealership several times and it is just now possibly diagnosed with tipm. Im part of a jeep club in which we have an online forum and this in not just happening to my jeep its happening to many jeeps and I feel its a major safety concern. Chrysler has paid for several of the jeeps on the forum, so far they haven't paid for mine but I think this issue really needs to be addressed.

The windshield cracked at the bottom right in the middle. The vehicle was not in motion and the window defroster was turned on. That is when the crack formed.

The windshield on the vehicle is very weak. I have had three cracks in the last three weeks. This seems to occur on days below 32 degrees f. I do not travel gravel roads and have never had a vehicle windshield do this before.

During a snow or ice storm as the snow and ice collected on the vent below the windshield it gets in the area where the wiper motor and other mechanical parts are, they then freeze and encase the wiper system in ice causing the wipers not to work. When the wipers are needed as road salt and dirt splash on the windshield they do not work. This causes a very unsafe condition restricting visibility.
