NHTSA Complaint #10956113 — 2009 DODGE JOURNEY

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON BY THEMSELVES AND WILL NOT TURN OFF, HAD TO REMOVE FUSE. AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK THEY CAME ON AND WOULDN'T TURN OFF. THEN THE TURN SIGNALS, HEADLIGHTS, AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THIS CAR HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN AND THESE WORK WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE IT; MEANING THEY COME AND GO, WORKING ONE SECOND THEN NOT THE NEXT, THEN WORKING AGAIN....USUALLY THEY DON'T WORK AND STOP FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME THEN EVENTUALLY WORK AGAIN LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. THIS TIME I'M NOT SO SURE HOW LONG IT IS GOING TO GO ON BECAUSE IT IS WORSE AND ONGOING. I AM FINDING JUST HOW DANGEROUS IT IS NOT TO BE ABLE TO USE TURN SIGNALS, ETC. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE TO WORK NOW BECAUSE OF THE HEADLIGHTS! AND NOW THE RAIN IS COMING IN AND I AM NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS OR WIPERS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS - THERE ARE SOOO MANY COMPLAINTS! IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ME OR MY CHILDREN OR GRANDCHILDREN THERE WILL BE A LAWSUIT FILED AS THERE IS NO REASON FOR THIS NOT TO BE RECALLED WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS AND DANGER IT ENTAILS. COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ ARE ABOUT AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING, CARS STALLING IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, ETC. THIS IS TOTALLY ABSURD!!!!! AND AS BAD AS MY CAR IS GETTING THESE PROBLEMS WON'T BE FAR BEHIND. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO DOLE OUT FOR THIS BEING A SINGLE MOM AS IT IS A COSTLY FIX, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY THEY REFUSE TO RECALL I AM SURE!!
