| Description of the problem | Major problems with t. I. P. Module while driving at night the interior and head lights start to flicker and eventually go completely out. I have 5 kids and have been almost hit head on when this happens because it happens without warning. I have had to sit beside the road for hours waiting on my lights to come back on and sometimes they never have. This is a life threatening emergency and dodge wont listen to me. This is extremely dangerous and it is getting to the point the car is undrivable. I was told it would be $1,400 to repair module and that is why they will not do anything about it.
