Wiring melted together and lost headlights off and on. Dodge dealer could not find a problem the first time, 2nd dealer found the melted wires in the steering column. Could have caused an accident at night as the lights would just go out.

Neon SXT 2.0

  • Automatic transmission
  • 61,000 miles

I driving my car and I noticed a funny smell and white smoke coming from the steering column. I turned the car off and back on and it kept smoking every time it was turned on. I took it to the dealer, where they said it was my multifunction switch that burned. They replaced the multifunction switch and gave me the onld one back. You can definately tell where it was melted/burned.
