Description of the problem | We have a 2013 dodge durango with aprox 1600 miles on it. I have noticed on two different days now that when i get into the vehicle and start it that the "reading lamps" that are up by the sunglasses holder located in the front top of the vehicle, i noticed that they are "on" ... And i have to manually turn them off. Then on a different day i went to run errands, and i got in and out of the vehicle 3 times, and after all 3 occasions when i got back into the vehicle the lights were "on" again.... There was no one in the car that could turned them on, and it was daylight outside every time. I'm not for sure what is going on but it worry's me a bit since i have seen these other people reporting lighting/electrical issues and possiable headliner fires! I see there is an open investigation with chrysler about this or a similar issue.... I would like to add my incident to this as well... Hoping they can get this figured out and find a fix to the risk/issue. |
