TIPM Recall Coming

Interesting. I only run 92 through it. Not to say I didn't get a bad tank or something. Was there a TSB for the "fishbite"? I remember when I first got it that people were talking about it but I never felt it back then. Thanks.

Hemibuck,
I believe the below TSB is what you may be referring to. If you think this could be related to what you're experiencing, I certainly recommend bringing your vehicle to an FCA dealership to have them take a look at it.
TSB 18-035-14
SUBJECT:
Flash: Surge, Shudder or Pulsation at Highway Speeds
OVERVIEW:
This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) with new software.
NOTE: This is an optional software update that should only be used in situations
where the customer is specifically complaining of the condition described
below.
MODELS:
2012 - 2013 (WK) Grand Cherokee
2012 - 2013 (WD) Durango
NOTE: This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.7L engine (sales code EZH).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
A small number of customers may experience a surge, shudder or pulsation type sensation when driving on smooth road surfaces at highway speeds of 40-80 mph (64-129 km/h). Some customers may also describe the sensation similar to that of a fish biting on a fishing line.

Sadly I do
That's exactly what I have happening at freeway speeds. I had run several different brands of fuel additives/cleaners, thinking that would help clean or clear it up. Wishful thinking on my part.
I will reference this information when telling the service department.
Hopefully/Maybe it will get fixed this time around.

Maybe this is one of the pending items for NHTSA has against Fiat/ Chrysler they will be working on getting fixed just after announcing the great news for older Durango and Ram owners today.
I received my notice in March of this year and still have not heard anything. Talk about fixing thing's in a timely manner....NOT!

Sadly, I am still waiting on parts too. I can not understand how there are no relay parts available for this electrical circuit problem. The fix FCA came up with, is a cheap work around. The Takata air bag, FCA is sort of stuck in the middle, but it's still their responsibility.
The recalls that are now applying to my DD, can be considered a real serious hazard to ones life. Airbag blowing up and spraying you with shards of metal, can kill you. Fuel shutting off when you are driving, can get you killed too. I luv the DD, but it's not worth my life to drive it.

This is exactly why I bought my own relay:
And performed the recall work myself - Who wants to drive in a $40k time bomb.
