Consumer Description

WE HAD ISSUES WITH THE DIFFERENTIAL, UPDATES NEEDED AND DODGE HAS NO CLUE. BUT NOW THIS...WE HAVE A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY THAT IS ACTING VERY STRANGE. IT STARTED WITH THE HEADLIGHTS BEING ON, EVEN WHEN THEY WERE OFF (WE DO NOT HAVE AUTOMATIC LIGHTS)...THEN AFTER THE CAR WAS OFF, THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD FLASH ON AND OFF EVERY 10-30 SECONDS, WE WOULD HAVE TO UNDO THE BATTERY TO KEEP IT FROM DIEING. WE REPLACED THE HEADLIGHTS SWITCH AND IT STILL DOES AND ADDED A SYMPTOM. WHEN MY HUSBAND WOULD MANUALLY LOCK THE DOORS, IT WOULD UNLOCK BY ITSELF. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE TIPM WHICH HAS TO BE DONE BY DODGE. NOT SURE WHAT IT WILL DO NEXT!
