2008 Jeep Wrangler electronic stability control (esc) problems

“I'VE CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP ABOUT THESE OPEN RECALLS FOR OVER A YEAR NUMEROUS TIMES THEY TELL ME THEY WILL CALL WHEN PARTS ARE IN. NO CALLS ET. THIS IS MY ONLY CAR TO DRIVE THEY NO THAT. CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!”

“WHEN GOING OVER 35 THE WHEEL STARTS TO WOBBLE LIKE THE DEALTH WOBBLE. HAS A LOT OF LACK IN STEERING WHEEL.. WHEN CONTROL CONTROL IS ON IT GOING TO 5 RPM AND SHIFTING FUNNY..”

“WHILE IN MOTION DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND ON A CITY STREET CAR SUDDENLY DIES, NO POWER STEERING, LIGHTS FLASHING, HORN BLARING, WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND FLUID ARE ACTIVATED AND DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK. MECHANIC INFORMS ME IT IS TIPM ISSUE WITH 2007-2011 JEEPS/CHRYSLERS/DODGES. I INVESTIGATED ONLINE AND JEEP FORUMS ETC. SUPPORT THIS AND YET JEEP REFUSES TO ACCEPT ACCOUNTABILITY- AS SOMEONE WHO HAS NEARLY WRECKED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, I IMPLORE YOU ADDRESS THIS OR SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE, BECAUSE JEEP CONTINUES TO IGNORE THIS PROBLEM!!! THIS ALSO HAPPENS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED STATIONARY AND ISN'T EVEN ON- I HAVE WOKEN IN A PANIC SEVERAL TIMES BY WHAT I THINK IS MY CAR ALARM GOING OFF, TO FIND THE HORN BLARING, BLOWER MOTOR, FLASHERS, INTERIOR LIGHTS, AND THE WIPERS GOING ON AND OFF. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LIGHTS SUDDENLY GO OUT. ONCE AGAIN I URGE YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM, BECAUSE THIS WILL CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, OR WORSE IF THESE ISSUES ARE NOT RESOLVED! *THESE INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, BUT THE MOST RECENT WAS TODAY, SO THAT IS THE DATE USED TO ANSWER "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN"”

“ABNORMAL FLASHING OF INSTRUMENTS PANEL. SPEEDOMETER AND GAUGES TURN OFF WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR GO OFF AND ON. VEHICLE TEMPORARILY LOSES ENGINE POWER. INTERMITTENT LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER TO ALL DASHBOARD COMPONENTS. RADIO, BLINKERS, WIPERS GO ON OR OFF ON THEIR OWN. VEHICLE IGNITION WON'T START. DIAGNOSED BY DEALERSHIP AS: TIPCM FAILURE; "COMPUTER FRIED" I HAD TO PAY FOR A NEW WIRING HARNESS, HAD TO REPLACE FUSE BOX, BRAND NEW SWAY BAR CONTROL MODULE ALONG WITH A BRAND NEW TIPCM COMPUTER BOUGHT FROM DEALER. DEALERSHIP WON'T COVER REPAIR COST NOR IS COVERED BY JEEP MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY.”

“LAST YEAR (2016) I HAD A PIECE OF PLASTIC (LOOKS LIKE TAPE) COMING OUT BETWEEN THE STEERING WHEEL AND STEERING COLUMN WHILE DRIVING ON OUR LOCAL STREET. I DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS WIRES AT FIRST. THIS WIRE 'TAPE' EVENTUALLY BROKE WHICH MEANS YOU DON'T HAVE A WORKING AIRBAG, HORN, ETC. BROUGHT IT TO A LOCAL GARAGE LAST FALL (2016) AND WAS TOLD THE CLOCK SPRING CAUSED THIS AND THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT. PUT THE JEEP IN THE GARAGE FOR THE WINTER AND TODAY (3/2/2017) CALLED THE DEALER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. AFTER GIVING THEM THE VIN # I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL DIDN'T APPLY TO MY JEEP WRANGLER. BTW IT ONLY HAD 40,920 MILES ON IT!”

“WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 50 MPH VIOLENT SHAKING OF ENTIRE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. IT IS BRAKE OR STABILITY CONTROL RELATED. HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND START AGAIN FOR SHAKING TO STOP. ALSO HAVE HAD TO CHANGE BOTH FRONT CALIPERS DUE TO OVERHEAT DAMAGE. THE OVERHEAT IS A RESULT OF BRAKES APPLIED BY STABILITY CONTROL OR TRACTION CONTROL WHEN THERE IS NO NEED FOR EITHER.”
