Description of the problem | I have had problems with what i believe is the electrical and i am afraid of it causing a fire. I have had dash lights come on for the breaks only to have the chrysler dealer tell me nothing is wrong. Then when the turn signal is turned on the dome light was flashing. Then 4 dash lights come on and it has something to do with the break system brought to mechanic he done an analysis said i needed a part. A week later the lights are out so i went back and this time was told as long as the lights are out there is nothing wrong. I am not a mechanic or scientist but i don't think it takes a rocket scientist to know something is not right with the electrical. The locks lock and unlock by themselves and this zaps my battery. I have a brand new battery which is dead today. I have called chrysler and they said i have to have another analysis done???? This is crazy! |
