While pulling out of a parking lot, with my foot on the brake, the vehicle began accelerating. This only lasted a brief second, but the vehicle jerked forward and drove over a parking block and off the curb. Soon thereafter, I began having issues with the headlights. I would turn the light switch to on. The lights flickered for a second, then shut off. I would toggle the light switch and would eventually would get the headlights to turn on. This issue became progressively worse to the point where they would shut off while I was driving. Needless to say, this presented a safety issue. Thankfully, I live only 10 minutes from where I work, and use the fog lights on well lit roadways to get back and forth, but obviously cannot drive the vehicle for long distances or on major highways and interstates during night time hours. While this issue got worse, the radio in the vehicle would unexplainable shut down. When this happens, I hear a sound like wires short circuiting from somewhere inside the dash. The same time the radio goes out, I noticed that the air conditioning, power windows, and door locks would also lose power. After researching all these issues through the internet and Chrysler forums, it seems the logical issue would be the T.I.P.M. ( total integrated power module). I am having the vehicle looked at in the next few days. My only concern is all the complaints regarding this module on Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep vehicles, and no safety recall had been issued. Thus is clearly a safety concern and should be addressed in a class action law suit.

Received safety recall notice R03 on May 16,2015. As of now(Oct. 27,2015) I have not been able to get the work done. Dealer says he can only get one part at the time and there are 17 on the waiting list. This is unacceptable. I don't know where else to complain about this.

I am a used car dealer. I purchased vehicle from the dealership. It was a trade in. I sold the vehicle. The next day the customer called and said the wipers came on without being turned on. Lights were flashing in the dash and it shut off several times when they made a turn. The vehicle was taken to dealership. I paid $983 for the repairs. Vehicle was picked up by my customer. It was not fixed, same things were happening. It was taken back to shop, still at dealership shop. The service manager told me it cannot be fixed. I have tried to contact the case manager, but she is not available and does not return calls. My customer had called me and told me she had the same problem and wanted me to find out what is going on with the case. The customer is not paying me on the vehicle at all. I am a buy here pay here dealer. It is unsafe to drive due to all the things that are going on and off and it shutting off.

Van was running, starting, and driving fine. Then one day it would not start, when my husband went to leave work. He thought maybe he left the lights on in the van, and asked someone to jump his car. As soon as the cables were hooked up, it started. It ran the 20 minute drive home. He went out to start the car again that evening- and it started right up. The next morning when he went to leave for work it would not start again. The lights and radio came on. The starter clicked, but it would not turn over. It is intermittently leaving us stranded. Each time it has happened the vehicle was stationary, parked on a flat surface.
