Had total electrical failure of car. First, AC wouldn’t work, then within 4-5 minutes warning lights came on, car stalled, all power off. Not even emergency lights came on.

Towed to shop, they haven’t been able to trace the problem yet es

Sounds like a TIPM failure.

> If you've heard of a TIPM, chances are you own a vehicle from Fiat-Chrysler (FCA). Think of it like a command center for all the electrical functions of your car, and in FCA's case a very, very disfunctional one.
