Description of the problem	I bought the vehicle in 5/2014, the following day i noticed odometer jumped up about 300 miles and i live only about 20 miles away from the dealer. I also noticed that tpm light came on and half the radio was lit. I took it back the very next day and said that they would need it to order a new cluster panel and replace the radio. They also claimed they replaced all 4 tire pressure sensors as well as tpm module. They kept the car for about 2 weeks. It worked fine for about 2 days then i started getting even more lights to turn on from the cluster panel. Now i have the 4x4 amber light, trac control, tpm maint, and the abs lights to turn on, i feel i had nothing but problems since day 1. I need help. Total i paid about 13,000 for the car. I need answers. I strongly believe that the main computer is defective. Its not recognizing a chasis ground. It shouldn't take a fatality to get chrysler to look into this. I will never buy another chrysler product again. I feel the chrysler dealer also kept information private to try and make a sale. M going to the local media if this isn't resolved.
