Yes I had to return it but we did open it up and it was all cracked inside and had a blister like it got to hot

Then I recommend that you check the charging system, make sure its regulating the voltage, and of course computer, sensor grounds and make sure there isn't any intermittent shorts in the reference voltage wiring, you don't want to roast a new computer.

My 2009 grand Cherokee turns over but won't start. In both instances I used remote start it did start I then use key fab it turns over but does not start. The first time we used starter fluid to get it to crank over and inter changed relays no problem for a week then the second time it wouldn't start with starter fluid use. Towed to garage next day mechanic got in and it started right up. Diagnostic is not indicating any codes. Help!
