Consumer Description

I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP TO BE DIAGNOSE BECAUSE OF WINDSHIELD WIPER NOT WORKING PROPERLY. WHEN WIPERS ARE TURN ON THEY WOULD RANDOMLY STOP OUT OF NO WHERE THEN TAKE SEVERAL SECONDS SOMETIMES MINUTES BEFORE COMING BACK ON, THE DIAGNOSTIC CAME BACK INTERNAL SHORT IN TIPM. I'VE NOTICED IN MANY RESEARCH ONLINE THERE HAS BEEN MANY RECALLS AND PROBLEM REGARDING TIPM FROM DODGE, JEEP, CHRYSLER. ALSO I'VE HAD SHORTAGE IN MY POWER WINDOW NOT WANTING TO WORK BUT WILL EVENTUALLY START AGAIN AND AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON ALL THOSE COULD BE RELATED TO THE BAD TIPM. THE FIRST TIME I'D NOTICED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER NOT WORKING I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON A RAINING NIGHT ON THE PARK WAY DOING 65MPH WITH A SEMI TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME THEN OUT OF NO WHERE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS GOT STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD I COULD NOT SEE BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING KIND OF HARD SO I HAD TO DRIVE 20MPH WITH MY EMERGENCY FLASHES ON BECAUSE I WAS LESS THEN A HALF OF MILE FROM MY EXIT THEN I PULLED OVER AT THE FIRST STORE OFF THE EXIT. THE OTHER SCENARIO WITH THE WINDOWS NOT ROLLING DOWN I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE DOCTOR MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS DOWN WHEN I PULLED UP TO THE PARKING LOT IT WOULDN'T ROLL BACK UP AFTER I LEFT THE DOCTOR I GOT HOME 5 HOURS LATER I DECIDED TO GIVE IT ANOTHER TRY IT WAS WORKING FIND. MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR ABOUT 4MONTHS NOW AND I'VE NOTICE THERE'S BEEN RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE ABOUT THE AIR BAG.
