Jeep won't turn over sometimes. When it does, it occasionally make a grinding/scrapping noise. Any ideas on the root of the problem?

Grinding could be the starter gear not meshing with the flywheel gear. If the flywheel gear is damaged the transmission will have to be removed and the flywheel repaired or replaced. If your new starter is the problem then replace it immediately as fly wheel damage is really expensive to fix.

Just bought it-5 days later the windshield wipers are stuck on/turn signals won't work. Took it to the certified shop and they replaced wiper & multi purpose signal switch. Started doing it again? 3 Answers
Is this a wiring problem? The mechanic was a little red in the face after they told me it was fixed and we didn't even get it out of the service garage.
