Description of the problem	The first of many times happened one morning as i was getting into vehicle. The horn, windshield wipers . The wipers sprayed all the fluid in the reservoir. I could not turn these off. After disconnecting the battery, the engine would not crank for some time and the horn no longer worked. The dealership diagnosed the problem as a faulty horn and replaced the clock spring, horn and a fuse. A few weeks later, while driving, the horn, wipers and lights all came on and i could not turn these off! Even after removing the key, the engine and all the above would not shut off! Once again, i had to disconnect the battery in order to shut these components off. This has happened numerous times since! The dealership is now saying the problem is with the tipm. But, in the meantime, is this vehicle safe to drive? Today, i called chrysler customer service and they told me that they would document this. Not good enough! In the meantime....... I am somewhat fearful of driving my jeep for the simple reason of the unknown. Not to mention the embarrassment that this brings when stopped at a busy intersection and my horn and wipers start blaring uncontrollably. This must be stopped and chrysler should declare a recall! Please help my jeep is my only means of transportation and i'm very scared of driving it as i'm scared of the unknown that'd it stall or possibly go crazy on me again. This has happened more than roughly about 18 times in the span of 2 months
