Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET. ALSO, THE CAR'S HORN, WINDOW WIPERS AND LIGHTS IN SIDE HAVE JUST STARTED GOING ON FOR NO REASON WHILE LEAVING FOR SCHOOL. EVEN AFTER STOPPING CAR AND TURNING IT OFF, EVERYTHING WAS STILL GOING ON. I'VE HEARD IT'S A TIPM ISSUE WITH DODGE'S VEHICLES.
