Consumer Description

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. ALSO, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD ACTIVATE, THE HORN WOULD SOUND, THE DOOR LOCKS WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK ON THEIR OWN, AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OR EXCEED 20 MPH.
