CarComplaints.com Notes: The fourth generation Grand Cherokee took the relatively trouble-free run of the 3rd-generation and flipped the script.

From 2010 to 2011, complaints about the vehicle not starting increased 10-fold. In fact, the 2011 model year is riddled with engine problems and a defective TIPM might be to blame. The TIPM (Totally Integrated Power Module) distributes power to all the eletrical components in the vehicle, so when it starts acting funny so do numerous other components in the car. Orders for new TIPMs were so abundant that parts became scarce, prompting a class-action lawsuit claiming Chrysler ignored this obvious defect.

By 2012 complaints dropped back down by about 80%. Needless to say, if you see a used 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee on a lot just keep walking.

Have had this panel replaced twice and each time I have to get in line for service to look at it and then they tell me after an hour and ½ that they have to order the panel. Then I have to call them to find out if the part has come in. When I get back to have it installed its another 1½ to get the panel put in.

The plastic panel part on the back of the drivers seat keeps coming off. Took to dealer twice to have fixed. Hopefully it will stay on now.
