Consumer Description

SIMILAR TO NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10898441 I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED AN INTERIOR DOME LIGHT FLICKERING AND ALSO THE DRIVERS POWER WINDOW DOOR LOCK SWITCHES STOPPED WORKING. I WAS LOCKED OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS RUNNING WITH ALL DOORS LOCKED (BY ITSELF) AND WINDOWS WERE ROLLED UP. I HAD TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE. THE SWITCH CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT LOCKING OF THE DOOR BY CONSTANTLY CLICKING. WHICH I FOUND OUT THE NEXT MORNING WHEN THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. I FOUND OUT THIS VEHICLE WAS MADE FOR AND FIRST SOLD IN CANADA WHICH IF THAT WAS DISCLOSED TO ME I NEVER WOULD HAVE PURCHASED IT. THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER AND THE MECHANICAL SPEEDOMETER ARE NOT SHOWING THE SAME SPEEDS. AT 30MPH THE DIGITAL ONE SHOWS 32MPH BUT AT 70MPH THE DIGITAL SHOWS 75MPH. REPAIRS ATTEMPTED AT LITHIA CHRYSLER JEEP RENO NV UNSUCCESSFUL. WHEN THE DOOR LOCKS FAILED TO WORK THE TRUCK WAS STATIONARY AND THIS LOCKING ALSO OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT SLOW AND FAST SPEEDS, CITY AND HIGHWAY.
