2009 DODGE NITRO 4X4 Electrical System Problems

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR STARTING FOR ABOUT A LITTLE OVER 3 YEARS. IT RANDOMLY WILL NOT START AND WILL ONLY CLICK WHEN YOU TRY TO START. IT STARTED OUT TURNING ON AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS AND HAS ESCALATED TO MORE THAN 20 ATTEMPTS BEFORE IT WOULD START. WE HAVE REPLACED A LOT OF PARTS, HAVE CONTACTED DODGE CORPORATE, GOT 2ND OPINION AND STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. TODAY I WENT TO WORK AND HAD TO GO TO A MTG SO DROVE THERE AND WHEN I CAME BACK AND WENT TO START MY CAR IT WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. I HEARD A HUMMING SOUND IN MY CAR BUT NOTICED THE ESP AND BAS LIGHTS WERE ON ON THE DASHBOARD. I THOUGHT OK MAYBE MY FIRST PROBLEM HAS COME TO A HEAD AND NOW WILL NOT START. I CALLED THE DEALER, CALLED A TOW TRUCK, AND AFTER WAITING ABOUT 30...

WHILE DRIVING MY HORN SUDDENLY WENT OFF AND THEN ALL THE LIGHT ON THE DISH LIT UP AND THE CAR CUT OFF. I TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES TO NO AVAIL....I THEN TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND THEY BLINKED A COUPLE OF TIMES THEN A BEEPING SOUND WAS MADE, THE EVERYTHING WENT OUT AND SMOKE BEGAN TO POUR FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I LIFTED THE HOOD TO FIND THAT THE SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE TIPM. UPON INVESTIGATION I FOUND THAT THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS PART ON THESE VEHICLES AND NOTHING SEEM DONE ABOUT IT. *TR
