2007 Jeep Wrangler: doors won't lock, open or latch

Filed Aug 31, 2022 · Electrical, Lights · WV

The door locks will unlock and lock by themselves. Without anything being touched. It does it so often that it will run the battery dead at night as the headlights come on every time the vehicle unlock is triggered. Also the horn will sound for no reason. Unprovoked at all hours. No warning whatsoever.

Timp has gone bad. Causes all gauges to quit working, stalls engine during operatiing, door locks and security system inoperable, headlights work then don't work. Lights come on even if switch is off. Window motors quit working. The well known failure of the timp in chrysler vehicles, especially all jeep wrangler series dating as far back as 2006, have not been addressed nor fixed by chrysler. This timp failure is a severe safety hazard and needs an immediate recall forced upon chrysler/daimler/jeep. My 2007 jeep wrangler jku timp quit working, whilst I was driving. This could have caused a major accident of which could have resulted in injury, and/or death. Thankfully, I was able to physically through the disabled power steering to stop vehicle. Through my research, it appears this is a major safety issue plaguing nearly every jeep wrangler produced. Something needs to be done now to address this issue. I wonder if anyone involved in an accident causing injury or death or damage could have been related to the timp. I am going to discuss this issue with the north carolina general assembly and nc and us attorney's general's office as well. This has to be fixed now with immediate recall forcing chrysler/daimler/jeep to fix the timp.

Incidents of engine stall; airbag non-deployment; random horn, headlight, taillight, door lock, instrument panel and windshield wiper activity; failure of fuel pump shutoff resulting in unintended acceleration; and fires. All the dash back lights come off and on randomly especially the heater controls. Air bag light is always on. Air bag light and beeper flash and beep all the time and no mechanic does not know what to do about it. Very flushterating to drive w airbag beeping . No resale value due to all the above things. Will you buy it? Horn has now stopped working and lights behind the heater do not work either.
