Consumer Description

MY 2003 DODGE NEON SRT4 STARTED SMOKING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN, AND MY HEAD LIGHTS WENT OUT, ALSO MY BRAKE LIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT AS WELL. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AFTER CHECKING THEY SAW THAT THE CONNECTOR FROM THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH WAS ALL MELTED AND HAD CAUGHT ON FIRE THANK GOD IT DIDN'T SPREAD AT THE TIME. I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE HARNESS AND SWITCH AND FROM FORUMS I HAVE COME TO KNOW THAT THERE IS A LOT THIS CARS WITH SAME PROBLEM. THIS HAS TO STOP IS REALLY DANGEROUS AND IS COSTING US A LOT OF MONEY, IT IS REALLY UNSAFE. *TR
