Your Jeep's battery likely drains overnight because something is pulling power while the engine is off, known as a parasitic draw. Common causes include a door or trunk light left on, a faulty module such as the TIPM, an aftermarket accessory, or a battery that's simply too old to hold a charge.
Waking up to a dead battery is one of the more frustrating problems a vehicle owner can face, especially when you did nothing differently than the day before. In a properly functioning vehicle, everything should power down once you turn off the engine and lock the doors, aside from a very small amount of draw needed to keep your clock, alarm system, and computer memory running. When something is drawing more power than it should, your battery can go from fully charged to dead by morning.
There are several usual suspects behind this kind of drain. A trunk, glove box, or interior light that isn't shutting off completely is one of the simplest and most common causes, and it's often something you can catch by watching closely at night to see if any lights stay lit. Aftermarket additions like a stereo system, remote starter, or trailer wiring can also create a drain if they weren't installed correctly. On many Jeep models, the TIPM itself is a known contributor to parasitic drain, particularly when fuel pump or relay issues cause current to continue flowing after the vehicle is shut off.
It's also worth considering your battery's age. Batteries naturally lose their ability to hold a charge over time, and a battery nearing the end of its life may simply self-discharge faster than before, even without any electrical fault. If your battery is more than three or four years old, that's a reasonable place to start looking.
Tracking down a parasitic draw usually requires a multimeter and a bit of patience, since it involves testing your electrical circuits one at a time to pinpoint where the power loss is occurring. This isn't a quick guess-and-check job, and pulling fuses at random can take hours without the right approach.
