NHTSA Complaint #10487863 — 2008 DODGE NITRO

AT ANY GIVEN TIME ALL OF THE ELECTRONICS ON MY 2008 DODGE NITRO WILL GO CRAZY WITHOUT CAUSE. WHILE YOUR DRIVING OR PARKED, ENGINE ON OR OFF, KEY IN OR OUT OF THE IGNITION THE HEADLIGHTS, WIPERS, HORN, WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID, BLINKERS, DOOR LOCKS, RADIO INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL JUST START GOING ON OR OFF. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 1 YEAR NOW. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT IT WAS THE TIPM OR TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. THEY STATED THAT THE TIPM IS ON BACK ORDER AND THEY CAN NOT TELL ME WHEN MORE WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE. I CONTACT DODGE/CHRYSLER IN DETROIT AND THEY TOO COULD NOT GIVE ME ANY INFORMATION ON GETTING THIS REPAIRED. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF NITRO OWNERS WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN LEFT WITHOUT ANSWERS. IF SO MANY VEHICLES ARE EFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE THEN WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM? IF I CANT TURN TO MY DEALER OR MANUFACTURER FOR HELP, WHERE DO I TURN? *TR
