Loss of power in my 2006 Chrysler Pacifica Limited
I was getting on the freeway when I lost power to the car. I was preparing to exit the offramp when, out of now where the car increasingly sped up going faster. I tried to put the gear in neutral to see if that would slow down. It didn't. At the same time the engine was making a horrible sound. I thought the motor was going to catch on fire. But it didn't.
Driver's seat buttons don't work, when tried there's a light clicking noise from that door area. Buttons on steering wheel don't work. Radio, cd, disk changer don't work. blinker assembly is loose, when I turn the Left blinker on the fog lights turn on also. When I turn the Right one on it gets stuck on until I fiddle with it to get it in just the right position. Back window wiper doesn't work. Drivers' side passenger window is stuck completely down.
Spoke to a Chrysler mechanic, they stated my issue was the BCM. Spent $500.00 to put a new BCM in and it didn't fix. Had to take to the dealership, they stated that it was the TIPM. Took 3 weeks for them to get the part in, they fixed it and returned the car.
I got home and somethings were still not working. Called the dealer back and asked to bring the car back. Guess what !?!? It was another faulty TIPM, which would take another few weeks for the part to come in.
I have spent so much money on fixing this problem. $500 BCM, $1800, TIPM, $1000 in rental car fees. I could have purchased a new car!!! Chrysler doesn't want to own up to their faulty parts!!!!!
When we got the car the second day we had to take the car back cause the motor stopped on us with the radio, lights went off, on , that's when the motor shuts down

The car got towed home.
