NHTSA Complaint #10778603 — 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN

FOR A FEW DAYS MY VAN HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES STARTING.(NOT BATTERY) EVERY LIGHT ON THE DASH BORED HAS BEEN POPPING ON. THEN ALL THE DASH LIGHTS GO OUT AND SO DO THE HEAD LIGHTS. WE WERE DRIVING AT NIGHT. PARKED THE CAR FOR A MINUTE AND LET IT RUN. IT SHIFTED OUT OF PARK INTO DRIVE AND DROVE UP A LITTLE KNOLL AND INTO A PARKED CAR.NO ONE WAS IN OR AROUND THE VAN. MY BUMPER WAS DAMAGED. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT. I AM A MOTHER OF 4 YOUNG CHILDREN. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. TODAY IT RAIN A BIT BUT PRIOR TO TODAY IT WAS NOT RAINING. WHEN IN PARKED, LIGHTS AND WIPERS WERE IN THE OFF POSITION BUT THEY CONTINUED TO STAY ON. AT A VERY FAST RATE IT WOULD IDLE UP AND DOWN QUICKLY. WE REFUSE TO EVEN TURN ON THE VAN FOR I AM SCARED OF WHAT MAY HAPPEN.
