Description of the problem	The security system activated without cause. I removed the key, tried locking the door and unlocking, inserting the key in the door to turn it off. Nothing worked. I to had to pull the fuse for the lights and horn so my neighbors could get some sleep. I took another vehicle to work. It has not acted up since. The week before the alarm system activating the lights would come on without cause as well. We were sitting in the house and the lights would go and off for no reason. We took the batteries out of the key thinking it was the batteries going bad. This did not fix the intermittent lights issue. I had the tipm replaced july 2015 because the headlights stayed on all the time then would flash from time to time. The wipers would go on and off on their own. The horn blared when it felt like it. All these symptoms happened while driving. The jeep dealership ran a diagnostic and said the unit was bad. Surely an $800 part without labor is suppose to last more than 5 months!!!!
