| Description of the problem | I have reported this problem a year ago after seeing the lawsuit on jeep cherokee and dodge durangos. Having to replace the tpim module. I've seen several complaint about having to change the battery then the altenator then the tpim. I did all that and my vehicles electrical system still is giving me problems. The doors will not side open the air blows heat automatically when not even on and now won't even start. Problem after problem and still no recall. There has been hundreds of complaints about faulty tipm's and even a lawsuit. The dealership say's they don't know what the problem is but each person i've seen complain shares the same problem. First told it's the battery then the altenator then the tpim. Why has this not been recalled. Dodge knows this is a problem or they wouldn't have settled a lawsuit about the cherokee and the durango. This is not right at all and we need help fixing this issue asap. |
