I've been having trouble with my '19 JLU for about 3 weeks now. Went out one day to head to work and it would not start. Had engine light, ABS, traction control lights, and all gear shifter lights were lit up orange. Tow guy came and jumped it thinking batteries were dead. Went on my way and it was fine for the next 5 days.

Next time it happened, same lights lit up, took him about 3-4 times with the battery pack on to get it to turn over. Drove it to the dealer, they tested the batteries, said they were good, and said to let them know it it happened again.

Third time I went out and the Jeep was completely dead. No lights, nothing. Towed it to the dealer, tested the batteries and supposedly everything else and said they could not find the issue.

Happened for the fourth time today. Got all of the flashing lights and warnings. Sent the dealer a video of what it was doing, no reply yet, and it's getting towed back to them in the a.m.

Any ideas, besides the batteries, on what the issue might be? I heard maybe an ECM issue?

And please save the comments about finding another dealer. I live in a town of 400 people and there's not much around me. I'm already frustrated and just want this thing diagnosed and fixed.

Probably battery related.

Do talk to the Service Dept. Service Manager.... again the Service Manager and not the Service Writer.... Ask him to please give you a copy of the LOAD TEST for each battery.

You want to see the results for each so you know they indeed load tested your batteries. Load testing process takes a few hours.
