Well here's something for everyone to ponder on.. I pull into the bike shop and run in for a couple min. Come out and my jeep doesn't wanna start.. key fobs will NOT work to lock or unlock the doors, no lights from the gushed cluster.. finally I shift the shifter and I have cluster lights.. But still NO engine start.. Everything is DEAD.!!!! LUCKLY my dealer brings me a loaner car and tow the jeep to the dealer.. what's wrong..??? Still don't know, they haven't figured it out yet..
Mind you this is a 2012 JKUR auto. only 7000 miles on it..
I'll keep eveyone posted to the finding....

 

Ohh and was I pissed..???? Like HELL YES!!!!!!!

 

Sounds the transponder in the key became un programmed. I hope it's just an easy reflash.

 

I hope it is something simple as I sit here waiting for my 2012 to be built.

 

Well for a first model year (new motor wise) the complaints have been minimal....

 

Dang!! That stinks!! I hope you get it corrected quickly... let us know the source of the problem.

 

Always fun to buy a NEW vehicle and have something like this happen......eh?......

 

Had this very same thing happen to a family members new Power Wagon.
It was dead just like your Jeep was.
It would have been a very hard tow due to the location it was at out on our ranch.
Yes they use the Power Wagon for what it was built for.

I ended up disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and that fixed it, was able to start it. One thing is when it all powered back on all the lights worked and the horn was honking in that security honk pattern.

The dealer could not find any code and just told them it could have been the security system got messed up and needed a reboot. Sure glad it was not locked up when this took placed. So keep that trick in mind if that happens a 2nd time.

Jeep less now , But a Future Jeep owner.

Ok kids... The problem was... "the key sensor module"..... it went bad and was not reading the keys.. the keys themselves were good..
My dealer towed it in, brought me a car to drive and had it fixed in no time!!! Koodos to my dodge dealer from Claremore Oklahoma.!!
Now my jeep is back on the road and I'm a happy camper. Buuhwaaaaaa...!!!
