My 2012 dodge avenger had recall for electrical system, airbags. I took it to the dealer and they performed recall "n38 reflash tipm." before this recall was done my vehicle had no problems. As soon as I drove away from the dealer, my airbag light on dash was on, the left rear turning light and left brake light not working, right headlight not working, right front turning signal not working. I let the dealer know what was going on and they said I had "to bring it back in because it probably has electrical problem". This is more than just electrical problem, it is a safety problem. After having the lighting diagnosed and inspected, I am having to pay $1250 for tipm to be replaced for a new one. I am very upset and in disbelief that I have to pay this for a defective or faulty tipm module. I feel this defect of the tipm module should be also a recall and covered by the manufacturer.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 dodge avenger. The contact stated that all of the exterior lighting failed on the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a mechanic who stated that the light power module was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 48,300.
We hit a deer and the front of the car was demolished. Upon inspection the next morning, I noticed that an airbag sensor was shattered and just hanging by the wire harness. Airbags did not deploy, I was concerned about this and never got a straight answer from anyone. Now I get a recall notice saying faulty restraint system, I'm not too happy...
