Consumer Description
I HAVE ALSO BEEN DEALING WITH THIS SAME ISSUE FOR THE PAST 6-8 MONTHS AND BASED ON OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE.. THE ELECTRICAL RANDOMLY GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES IT WILL COME BACK ON ITS OWN BUT MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE TO PULL OVER TO TURN CAR OFF AND RESTART. WINDOWS, BLINKERS, AC, RADIO, WIPERS, HAZARDS, AND EXTERIOR BRAKE LIGHTS, ETC GO OUT. (I DO NOT LOSE CONTROL OF DRIVING BUT FEAR THAT IS WHAT IS NEXT, BASED ON OTHER PEOPLE'S COMPLAINTS OF SIMILAR ISSUES). THE DEALERSHIP CANT FIND THE PROBLEM, COULDN'T REPLICATE ISSUE (HAD TURNED OFF CAR DESPITE MY TELLING THEM IT WORKS AFTER RESTARTED), AND TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK NEXT TIME HAPPENS SO THEY CAN SEE (AS IF THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE ME)..I HAVE BOUGHT BACK AGAIN. ONLY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 3,000 MILES LEFT ON THE EXTENDED WARRANTY- SEEMS THEY ARE WAITING WARRANTY OUT. THIS IS A POSSIBLE DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT CAN CLAIM LIVES, IF SOMEONE DOESN'T SEE ME BRAKING, TRYING TO TURN, WIPERS WOULDN'T WORK DURING A RAIN DOWNPOUR ONCE.. DODGE NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS AS A WHOLE!! *TR
