NHTSA Complaint #11182498 — 2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN 4X4

VEHICLE ENGAGES 4WD LO AND 4WD ON IT'S OWN AT ANY TIME. DRIVING THIS VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS AT THE TRANSFER CASE ENGAGES AUTOMATICALLY WHILE DRIVING. I CAN ALSO HEAR 4WD ENGAGING WHILE LOCKING THE VEHCILE WITH THE KEY FOB. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF STORIES OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. DODGE/CHRYSLER WILL REPLACE THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR WHICH TEMPORARILY ALLEVIATES THE ISSUE. THE PROBLEM IS ELECTRICAL AND DANGEROUS. AT THE VERY LEAST, THIS PROBLEM CAN DESTORY A DIFFERENTIAL AND IN THE WORST CASE, CAUSE A VEHICLE TO GO OUT OF CONTROL ON A HIGHWAY/MOTORWAY. THIS ISSUE IS PREVALENT IN DODGE DURANGO AND CHRYSLER ASPEN VEHICLES.
