INTERMITTENT STALLS ON CORNERING. MY WIFE WAS TURNING ONTO OUR STREET WHEN SUDDENLY, THE ENGINE STALLED AND SHE LOST ALL POWER SYSTEMS LIKE STEERING AND BRAKES. SHE WAS BARELY ABLE TO AVOID HITTING A FIRE HYDRANT AND SOME CHILDREN WHO WERE PLAYING NEAR IT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN THE LAST MONTH THAT THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS THE SAME IDENTIFIED IN THE 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN AND TOWN AND COUNTY (SAFETY RECALL L25). THE KEY FOB DOES NOT SIT IN THE "ON" POSITION BUT CAN OVER-TRAVEL FROM START TO A POSITION BETWEEN "ON" AND "ACC". IF YOU TURN A CORNER OR HIT A BUMP, THE FOB WILL TRAVEL TO EITHER "ON" OR "ACC". IF IT TRAVELS TO "ACC" YOUR ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF AND THERE WILL BE NO CODES. SINCE YOU WILL LOSE ALL POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES, THIS CAN LEAD TO A DANGEROUS SITUATION, ESPECIALLY FOR WOMEN WHO MAY NOT HAVE THE UPPER BODY STRENGTH TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE POWER SYSTEMS. WHEN CONFRONTED WITH THE 2010 RECALL NOTICE, MY DEALER HAS ADMITTED THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE IN 2010 VEHICLES BUT BECAUSE I HAVE A 2009 THEY REFUSED TO EVEN LOOK AT IT. THEY WILL DO NOTHING TO HELP IF THEY CANNOT RECREATE THE ISSUE. HAVING A LOT OF EXTRA WEIGHT ON THE FOB WITH OTHER KEYS AND SUCH PROBABLY EXACERBATES THE PROBLEM AND IS PROBABLY WHY DEALERS ARE UNABLE TO RECREATE SINCE THEY WILL JUST HAVE THE FOB AND NOT ALL THE EXTRA WEIGHT THAT IS NORMALLY FOUND ON PEOPLES KEY CHAINS. THIS IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO BOTH MY FAMILY AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. PLEASE HELP GET CHRYSLER SAFETY RECALL L25 EXPANDED TO ALL VEHICLE AND MODEL YEARS WITH THE SAME FOB DESIGN. *TR

DP14004 · Totally Integrated Power Module Failure

Opened Sep 25, 2014 · Closed Jul 24, 2015

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Electrical System

In a letter dated August 21, 2014, the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) petitioned the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to initiate a defect investigation of alleged failures associated with the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) installed in Chrysler SUV?s, trucks, and vans beginning in the 2007 model year. The petitioner alleges that TIPM defects may result in engine stall, airbag non-deployment, failure of fuel pump shutoff resulting in unintended acceleration, fire, and other symptoms. On September 25, 2014, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened DP14-004 to evaluate the petition for a grant or deny decision. ODI analyzed complaint data provided by CAS as well as complaints submitted to ODI from consumers. In total, there were 296 complaints submitted by the petitioner in the original petition and five supplements, including 271 complaints related to the subject vehicles equipped with TIPM-7. Approximately 3 percent of CAS complaints are related to vehicles equipped with TIPM-6 and ODI?s review of these complaints did not identify any safety defect trends. ODI conducted a detailed review of complaints narratives submitted by CAS and consumers including careful analysis of vehicle repair histories, warranty claims obtained from the manufacturer and any available Customer Assistance Inquiry reports (CAIR). Analysis of the field data indicated that MY2011-2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango vehicles exhibited significantly higher complaint rates related to fuel pump relay (FPR) failures than other subject vehicles. In a September 3, 2014 letter to NHTSA, Chrysler submitted a Defect Information Report (DIR) identifying a defect in the FPR within the TIPM-7 which can result in a no start or stall condition in approximately 188,723 model year (MY) 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee (WK) and Dodge Durango (WD) vehicles manufactured from January 5, 2010 through July 20, 2011 (14V-530).In a February 24, 2015 letter, Chrysler submitted a second DIR expanding the scope of the FPR defect condition to include an additional 338,216 MY 2012 through 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured from September 17, 2010 through August 19, 2013 and MY 2012 through 2013 Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured from January 18, 2011 through August 19, 2013 (15V-115).ODI analysis of the CAS allegations of TIPM defects resulting in stall while driving, airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, fire and other faults identified a single defect condition related to 1 of over 60 different circuits in the TIPM assembly. The most common effect of this defect condition, related to the fuel pump relay, was a no-start concern, but it could also result in stall while driving (76 complaints). No valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components.Except insofar as the petitioner's contentions relate to the defect condition addressed by the Chrysler recalls, the factual bases of the petitioner's contentions that any further investigation is necessary are unsupported. In our view, additional investigation is unlikely to result in a finding that a defect related to motor vehicle safety exists or a NHTSA order for the notification and remedy of a safety-related defect as alleged by the petitioner at the conclusion of the requested investigation. Therefore, in view of the need to allocate and prioritize NHTSA's limited resources to best accomplish the agency's safety mission, the petition is den
