Consumer Description

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: GOOD DAY AFTER VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF, ESPECIALLY AFTER USING FOG LIGHTS; I..E. VEHICLE IS PARKED; SECURED; KEY OUT OF IGNITION; LIGHTS ARE PLACE IN OFF POSITION - THE LIGHTS WILL SEEM TO BE OFF THEN WITHIN AN HOUR RANDOMLY COME ON - GO OFF - GO ON OFF THUS DRAINING THE BATTERY. I'VE ALSO RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND MANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH 2005 DODGE CARAVANS ELECTRICAL ISSUE - LIKE THIS SAME PROBLEM (WHICH I EXPERIENCED MY SELF TODAY) OF THE LIGHTS RANDOMLY GO ON/OFF WHILE DRIVING. I'M GLAD IT WAS DAY TIME - BUT IF AT NIGHT WITH MY PREGNANT WIFE DRIVING - SET A RED FLAG OFF OF A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE SEE THE BELOW LINKS FOR OTHER EXAMPLES OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS - BELIEVE A RECALL IS IN ORDER TO FIX THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN YEARS AGO BY THE LOOKS OF IT. PLEASE HELP ! ! !
