Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AT NIGHT MY RIGHT HEADLIGHT WENT OUT,REPLACED BULB AND DISCOVERED NEW BULB DOES NOT WORK,PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A BAD TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE,SO A $20.00 LAMP TURNED INTO A COSTLY $1200.00 REPAIR, WHAT IF ALL LIGHTS WENT OUT? AS I INVESTIGATED THIS ISSUE IT IS VERY COMMON ON CHRYSLER/DODGE VEHICLES, THIS OCCURRENCE OF FAILURE CAN AND WILL BE A DANGER IF YOU ENCOUNTER FAILURE WHILING DRIVING AT NIGHT AND LOSE ALL LIGHTS OR OTHER COMPONENTS, I BELIEVE CHRYSLER /DODGE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS FAILURE IN THEIR DESIGN OF THIS NECESSARY COMPONENT IN THEIR VEHICLES AND A SAFETY RECALL SHOULD BE ORDERED! THANK YOU *TR
