HIGH MOUNTED BRAKE LIGHT IS AN LED DISPLAY AND COSTS $200.00. THAT IS REDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE FOR A SAFETY ITEM THAT SHOULD EITHER LAST LONGER OR BE CHEAPER. CAR WAS A DEMONSTRATION VEHICLE, AND I WAS NOT INFORMED DATE PUT IN SERVICE WHEN I BOUGHT IT - IT WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY WHEN THIS LED BURNED OUT. IN ADDITION, THE DEALER WANTS 1 HOUR ($85) TO DIAGNOSE THIS BURNED OUT LIGHT! CHRYSLER OUGHT TO BE HUNG FOR TURNING A $2 LIGHT BULB INTO A $200 PART. CAN YOU HELP?

OWNER NOTICED THAT MOST OF THE TIME THE LIGHT ON THE RADIO CLOCK AND CD PLAYER DOES NOT LIGHT UP. THE LIGHT STAYS OFF FOR WEEKS AT A TIME. THE RADIO AND CD PLAYER CONTINUE TO WORK, BUT THERE IS NO INDICATION OF THIS. THE DEALER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. *AK

AUTO HAS EXHIBITED A CONSISTENT PROBLEM BEING A GRINDING NOISE ACCOMPANIED BY DIFFICULTY IN STEERING. THIS PROBLEM MANIFESTS ITSELF PARTICULARLY IN COLD WEATHER.
