Consumer Description

MY 2011 DODGE SEEMS TO HAVE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. I AM UNABLE TO USE THE DEFROST, OR AIR. EACH TIME I TURN IT ON THE ENGINE BEGINS TO RUN HOT. ALSO MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURN ON WHEN I START MY ENGINE, BUT THEY WERE NOT ENGAGED. THIS HAPPENS WEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON AND STATIONARY AS WELL AS WHEN IN MOTION.
