Tipm- door locks shorted out, fuel pump quits stranding the vehicle on the street, will not restart without pulling and resetting the iod fuse, causes airbag light to flash fault, rear wiper quits. This makes the vehicle unsafe or unable to be used. Vehicle was bought new and wouldn't think much about this if through research I had not found how many failures experienced by many have been related to this parts failure rate. Parked the vehicle and when went to restart it it would not resart, then the doors started locking and unlocking repeatedly locking me out of the vehicle with the keys in it. I reset the iod fuse and it started. Then going down the highway the warning lights in the dash started flashing, airbag, tcs, anti theft, tire pressure, ABS, stability control all came on then vehicle shut off. It would start then run for a few seconds and die. Through research I found this to be related to the anti theft in the tipm-. Tried replacing the door lock fuse and it started arcing and smoking. Vehicle is parked now with a tipm- on order. As stated previously, I bought this jeep new and if it was not such a widespread issue with chrysler products I woul not think much about a part failure at ten years.

As the vehicle was travelling at night on a two-lane country road at 35 MPH, the electrical power of the vehicle shut off, including headlights, radio, interior power, ventilation, and engine. The duration of the outage was approximately 10 seconds. This power outage occurred just prior to a curve and caused loss of vision and ABS braking, causing a skid and narrowly missed colliding with a guardrail. The power then came back on, and all systems appeared to return to normal. There appears to be a power distribution problem that affected the operability of the vehicle, creating a hazardous condition. Battery and alternator check out ok, so a power supply problem is not a root cause of the issue.

Clockspring was replaced july 18, 2016 due to recall. Now the vehicle wipers come on anytime and vehicle then stalls. Takes 5 minutes or more to start vehicle again. This occurred while driving in traffic. Dealer claim faulty wiper motor and ABS module. Replaced both august 1st, it happened again when driving home that same day, problem still not resolved. Dealer has vehicle again. My vehicle ran great before dealer changed clockspring.

My jeep's horn began honking, wipers came on, door locks began locking and unlocking. Nothing stopped until I got home and my husband disconnected the battery. He connected it several hours later and it was fine. I took it to the dealership where they told me nothing could be done as the problem had stopped. Several months later, the same thing occurred along with the A/C shutting off. We went through the same steps; disconnect battery, reconnect and took to dealership. Again I was told that they really couldn't diagnose because nothing was happening at that point. Last night my jeep began shaking violently and scared me as I could not regain control. I had to slow and pull over so it could stop. My husband came to get me and was following me when in addition to the past things happening (I call it possessed), the warning lights came on; brake, engine, ABS, battery, etc. It then stalled as I was turning. Luckily the woman coming the opposite direction slowed and went around otherwise I would have been hit. My husband towed the jeep to the dealership and left it there, and told them to fix it as it is a real road hazard. In reading about jeep complaints, I'm assuming it is a "tipm" problem and something called a "death wobble". I am absolutely shocked that this hasn't been recalled.

While driving on the road the jeep starting flashing the ESC light, the traction control, brakes, ABS and the speedometer would skip and not give a reading. The headlights would also flicker. Just to note the alternator and battery are good. This could have caused me loss of control in slippery conditions.

Driving on the interstate the all of the dash warning lights came on and blinked(ABS,ESC,traction control,brake,seatbelt) then the vehicle stalled causing loss of control. Luckily no vehicles around and I regained control after going in the median. Put in 4 wheel drive and got out. The vehicle then stalled again turning everything off including 4 way flashers when I stopped at a light. It was dark and the jeep is dark green. I had a flashlight to warn other drivers. Very dangerous situation. I opened the hood and pounded my fist on the main fuse box. After 3 minutes the vehicle came to life and I started it to get off roadway.

On the 2009 jeep wrangler 4-dr 4x4 (lhd) dashboard, the airbag warning light flashes on every other minute with a chime, an indication that there is something malfunctioning or interfering with the vehicle's airbags.the ABS esp and bas lights come on when going over a bump, having a car wash or going around a corner. This has been a recurring issue and concern for many 2009 jeep wrangler 4-dr 4x4 (lhd) owners, including myself, and has been shown time and time again to be caused by a faulty clockspring within the vehicle's steering wheel. It's all over the web on various online jeep forums.this faulty clockspring is the culprit for potential airbag failure in the 2009 jeep wrangler 4-dr 4x4 (lhd) during an accident or premature deployment when simply driving around. Daimler chrysler has refused to address the safety concern of their faulty clockspring that can cause failure of the vehicle's airbags from properly deploying. I have spent over $1000 replacing parts and getting the jeep chrysler certified technicians to diagnose the issue and resolve it but to date they have not and the lights are still on.

Airbag, ABS and ESC lights all come on and won't turn off. Meaning airbags may not deploy if in accident and ABS may fail when braking. Esc has been randomly kicking in which cuts power to my powertrain and causes a safety hazard when in traffic and my vehicle suddenly slows and cannot maintain speed. Recalls have been done on the right hand drive models from 2008-2011, and the left hand drive model for 2007. This appears to be same issue (clockspring) as the recalls and is a safety concern that the dealer is not taking responsibility for.

While in normal driving conditions my dash board lit up, esp/bas, traction control, ABS, and airbag light all were lit up, and later I found out that my horn was inoperative. I have done extensive research and believe the cause to be a faulty clock spring. As of now I understand that there is no recall on the clock spring for my year of vehicle. Those systems are installed to protect my family and I. Those systems are vital to safety, especially the airbags! I do not believe that each individual that has this problem should have to pay to fix a faulty system that the manufacturer originally installed. I, along with many other jeep owners request that there is a recall put in place for this product.
