OP
I’ve had the Jeep about 1 1/2 year, check engine light came on after 3 months.May I ask what symptoms directed the mechanic to.make the timing chain diagnosis?
At about 24-26k Rpms the Jeep would buck and drive really rough..
Read cam sensor, replaced with Mopar.
Jeep ran for about couple of months and same code came up mechanic replaced crank sensor with Mopar sensor..
About a month after that engine light back on took back to mechanic and he said there was a short in one of the cam sensor wiring and replaced...
About 3 months after that ch eng light again and same code... the strange thing was that if outside temp was below 50• then the check engine light would come on and start bucking at 26k rpms...
Now took Jeep to the Dealership, they said both sensors were bad and replaced both.
Very next day engine light on again, they suggested that it needs new computer...
I sent computer out for repair, the company called and said they cannot find anything wrong with computer. They even left the computer in the refrigerator freezer overnight and retested unit, and same results, no issues with the computer.
Re-installed computer and the engine light stays on constantly but now it only bucks at 34k rpms....
Since it’s my daily driver, I drove it always under 34k rpms...
On extremely hot days 98• and above the car
At times, the car would shut off and have a really tough time starting and when it does start it runs really rough, like out of timing. If I let the car sit for an hour it starts right up and drives pretty normal.
That shutting of happened 3 times within 3 Month span...
Last week the Jeep kept shutting off about every 10 blocks and having a tough time starting and once started running very rough...
