2011 JGC Battery Drained and Wiper Issue
Hey guys,
I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 5.7L Hemi engine. My battery got drained and the vehicle would not start. The wipers also started working on their own like they were possessed. I had it towed to the dealer and they recharged the battery and it seems to be working fine now.
I checked online to see if others had this problem and it seems like the 2011/2012 years have electrical issues. I've also read that some have even started on their own, and some have cut off while driving on the highway which can be very dangerous. Has anyone experienced anything like this?

I'm sorry to hear of this.
I have yet to hear about such a case but if you would like me to look into this for you, please send me a PM with your VIN and full name.
I would be happy to document this concern with customer care and review this with our technical assistance group for you.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Idea*
The relay for the window wipers are draining the battery due to the open the signature. The relay is bad and stuck in the open/on position. I would start with that. If not check for any wiring that is grounding out.
