IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AROUND 3AM OUR CARS HORN ALARM STARTED TO GO OFF CONTINUOUSLY! NO MATTER WHAT WE DID IT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF UNTIL IT WANTED TO! THE NEXT MORNING OUR CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL. MY HUSBAND JUMPED IT, AND IT STARTED. LATER ON THAT DAY THE HORN STARTED GOING OFF AGAIN, SO MY HUSBAND UNHOOKED OUR HORN SO WE DIDN'T KEEP WAKING UP OUR NEIGHBORS. AND WE REPLACED OUR BATTERY. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY, IT STILL KEPT DYING. I COULD DRIVE THE CAR ALL DAY, STOP AND GET A COKE, AND THE THE CAR WOULDN'T START WHEN I CAME OUT; IT WAS OFF FOR 2 MINS. SO I CALLED THE CHRYSLER RECALL LINE, THERE WAS A RECALL SO I JUST HAD THE RECALL FIXED TODAY. I GOT HOME, WE HOOKED UP THE HORN AND IT'S STILL HAPPENING. HORN WON'T SHUT OFF AND NOW MY CAR WON'T START AGAIN. AND THE RECALL PEOPLE SAID THERE IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE MARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND THERE IS NO RECALL? SERIOUSLY? SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. MY CAR IS NOT SAFE AT ALL! AND DEFINITELY NOT RELIABLE. WE HAVE A CHRONICALLY ILL CHILD AND I NEED A CAR CAN RELY ON TO START WHEN HE NEEDS TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL, AND CHRYSLER SEEMS NOT TO CARE AT ALL. WE TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, BUT OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH IT, WHEN IT KEEP HAPPENING. PLEASE HELP LOOK INTO THIS.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A LONG DISTANCE ROAD TRIP, WHICH I DO QUITE OFTEN, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO VIBRATE AS I WAS DECREASING THE SPEED FROM 65 MILES PER HOUR. I HAVE SINCE HAD MY TIRES REPLACED AND THE TPMS ON ONE OF MY WHEELS BECAME CORRODED. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. I HAD MY BACK BRAKES REPLACED, THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. I HAD MY WHEELS ALIGNED, THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. MY MECHANIC IS CURRENTLY REPLACING THE AXLE ALONG WITH MY FRONT BRAKES. HOPEFULLY, THIS FIXES THE PROBLEM. MY DAUGHTER IS IN COLLEGE AND MY FAMILY AND I WILL BE MAKING 8 HOUR ROAD TRIPS OFTEN. I AM FINANCIALLY OBLIGATED TO THIS VEHICLE AND NEED IT TO SERVICE MY FAMILIES NEEDS. DODGE NEEDS TO ENSURE THAT THEIR VEHICLES ARE SAFE AND RELIABLE.

HORN HONKS ON ITS OWN AT RANDOM TIMES. WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN ON THEIR OWN. ELECTRICAL PANEL BLINKS BY ITSELF. INGINE HAS SHIRT OFF BY ITSELF. PROBLEM HAS BEEN TRYING TO BE SOLVED BY DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPAR :( ENT FOR ALMOST AN ENTIRE MONTH WITH ZERO PROGRESS. TPIM WAS UPDATED, KEY FOBS REPLACED TWICE, BATTERY REPLACED TWICE, CLICK SPRING REPLACED AND NOW WAITING ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SO IT CAN BE REPLACED.
