| Description of the problem | 2013 dodge grand caravan 76000 miles. Windshield wipers wont work. I was told this tipm is failing and needs to be replaced. Dodge will not help replace or repair this even though this is a known issue. I was told by a chrysler dealership this is a known issue. The tipm is the command center for all electrical functions. There are reports of vehicles stalling while driving, air bag issues, windshield wiper issues, fuel pump issues. This is a very dangerous part to malfunction. Yet, they will not help replace this. There was a lawsuit filed for these issues. Why isn't there a recall. My family is being put in danger! Dodge told me not to drive it if i feel its unsafe. What am i supposed to do? This is my vehicle that i bought thinking it was a safe reliable vehicle. This part is over 1000 to fix. Please investigate and recall! This is a death trap waiting to happen not only for those driving but for others on the road. People shouldn't have to potentially lose there lifes due to a faulty part. |
