| Description of the problem | Driving down the road at 40 mph when all of a sudden complete power loss including brakes, steering, almost causing an accident. Horn started constantly going, front and rear wipers going. Turned key off and removed, but everything was still going like a possessed car. Had to disconnect the battery to get everything to shut off. Mechanic has told me it is likely a failure of the car's tipm, which seems to be a persistent problem with jeeps and other chrysler vehicles. Called fca and they won't stsand behind their product, saying it's not asn issue. |
