| Description of the problem | We could not start vehicle with only the center brake light working. The tow truck driver had to disconnect drive line to tow vehicle to dealership. The dealership diagnosed as tipm failure (total integrated power failure). Numerous complaints on internet were found with this same failure. We are very concerned of potential for car crash since all lights and vehicle are disabled without warning. If you are successful to coast your vehicle of the road there is still a danger of being hit by another car since the light are disabled. Also occupant cannot lock doors to defend against criminal activity. One more point is that this is an off road vehicle. We had just be using it in a very remote location. I don't know if we could safely get ourselves back including the vehicle from this very remote location. |
