Vehicle started to accelerate on its own. It made it a foot or so before stopping. Soon after, the vehicle at random turned on the wipers and horn. Ignition became non-responsive and I had to pull battery cable to silence everything. Had to take it to the dealership for repair and received lecture about not pulling battery cable and was charged $90 so a tech could fix this. The tipm module had failed and needed to be replaced.

Recall L25/NHTSA 14V-373 "fobik" button ignition key may not fully seat in the on position and may move to the accessory position. Received the recall notice 9/15/14. Called Chrysler dealership they said they do not have the parts to fix this item. Told me to call the manufacture. I called Chrysler and got a recording saying that they know of the problem and are working to fix this. It is now 6/4/15 and still the manufacture and dealer do not have the fix. We use this vehicle for our business and are not sure what to do. We know there is a safety problem, but we are unable to fix this because the manufacture has not resolve this issue.
