Unhappy PLEASE HELP! 2013 Jeep Starting Issues

Hello all,

My 2013 JGC CRD Limited is having issues starting . I had the recalls performed last year in October one of which was the Fuel Relay.

This year my car failed to start, you'd press the button to start it would start up then immediately shut off. This happened a few times sequentially before finally starting. Thinking it was just a key issue i drove it to work , This was Easter Sunday. My car after around 15 minutes went into LIMP mode and had no more torque and wouldn't go when foot was flat. I pulled over immediately and shut the car off. When i tried to restart the car all i could hear was the car cranking (Starter motor noise) with no start. Engine Light also appeared.

The car eventually started and i had it towed to Jeep . I had done some research and believed the issue may have been the TIPM box or the Fuel Relay issue From the recall. I had expressed this with jeep and they looked over my car. I had received and update and they had told me this was going to cost me $1200 as it was the Wireless Ignition Module and Steering Module which is what the diagnostics told them. I was a little hesitant to believe them at first because the symptoms where so similar to the fuel relay issue and my car was perfect before these recalls. However i trusted them and went ahead with paying this money and fixing it as i needed my car back.

They called me to come pick up the car and told me it was all good. I drove it to work (3kms up the road) parked it and went about my shift. After finishing work i got into my car and started it which it started but strangely a little rough. I wasn't impressed with how it was sounding. On idle it was revving it's self like it was "chugging" ? Then it clunked out. I started the car again , same thing happened. I turned the car off and back on and to my horror no start...keeps cranking and no start. This time it was hard for me to even turn it off from cranking. I got pretty upset at this point because i was once again stranded in the car park at 10pm...

I organised a tow truck for the next morning and got it towed back to jeep. Now they are saying the car is turning on and starting perfectly every time. They can not replicate the issue. I have video footage of my car doing all this by the way which i have shown Jeep. They are doing everything they can to try and find the problem but i still believe it could possibly be the recall issue?

Has anyone had this issue or experience dealing with this issue? I know all of that was long but at this point i'm desperate for answers. I'm scared to trust what they are saying and to take my car home. They have even had one of there foreman take my car home and test the computer whilst driving to try find this issue.

Please help , it's still at JEEP and i want to fix my poor baby it was fine before these recalls and now i'm out of pocket $1200 for something that may have not needed.
