Vehicle had external fuel relay installed over a year ago by dealer. This vehicle had not experienced an issue with the fuel relay. Now vehicle is having the same issues - engine stopping for no reason, even while driving - as described in the complaints about the tipm. Very dangerous and the "fix" by fca, appears to not be a permanent fix.
