| Description of the problem | i am owner of a 2004 dodge durango. Vin # 1d4hb48n04fxxxxxx. On tuesday, september 12, 2006 my wife (lori m. Murphy) noticed that all interior lights would not go off once the vehicle was in gear. This problem persisted throughout that day and at 10:00 p. M. I tried to get the lights to turn off to no avail. The lights were still on this morning (9/13/06) when my wife took the vehicle to aurora chrysler plymouth in aurora ohio. On the way to the dealership she noticed an electrical burning smell. After arriving and waiting about 2 hours, she was told that a chip had burned out on the circuit board for the instrument panel. The service personnel indicated the part needed for repair would be $587. 00. I would like to refer to the nhtsa investigation # ea06015 to see if i have any recourse with daimlerchrysler for covering expenses for this repair. *nm |
