I'd get that battery tested as a first step. That is often how it works. Starts one time, next time kaput.

I agree, test battery as they can die a very sudden death. But, is it cranking and won't start, or not cranking?

I am having the same issue stop for gas and the Jeep will not start. Everything else works. I have already put in a new battery still doing it. It is very random couple times a month. Looks like the security like above the gas gauge is on. An ideas? Had this Jeep for 2 years and it has happened about 5-6 times.
