The back up camera and interior screen have both gone out. Out of nowhere. The screen fluctuates between working and turning itself off mid use (not only for the camera, but during driving as well.) the screen has been malfunctioning for quite some time now and the camera has gone down about 6 months ago.

This is a beautiful car however I have been smelling a chemical smell similar to melting plastic or rubber sinve I purchased it in january at 39,000 miles. My passengers also smell it. The dealership did not and they did not investigate further. Now the smell has gotten worse and is more like antifreeze and melting plastic. The smell happens most noticeably after exiting the highway and comingvto a stop. My passengers all notice it. I ride with the windows lowered slightly to bring in fresh air. Also the air conditioning has been turning on on its own, the backup camera recently stayed on for about a half mile after I changed from reverse to drive and began driving. Also their seems to be an occasional delay in accelleration whin shiftng gears.

Check engine light will flash while simultaneously the gear selections lights all glow red. Stability indicator signals loss as well as extremely rough shifting. Loss of reverse camera, moon roof, loss of auto windows both up and down, as well as practically all forward motion as if the transmission has suddenly stopped working. Once stopped safely and vehicle has been disabled I.t will not start without a series of steps prior to ignition. 1. Press accessory button. 2. Place in nuetral. 3. Return to park. 4. Open and close driver door. 5. Apply foot to the brake pedal. 6. Press ignition switch to start the vehicle. These steps allow the vehicle to become operational; however the check engine light will remain on for various lengths of time. The transmission now shifts less rough than during the initial malfunction. I have experienced this malfunction both while starting my car and during operation on the open road. At which point the vehicle becomes clearly unsafe to operate, due to loss of motion. I personally do not feel safe operating this vehicle alone and especially with my family aboard. I have researched this issue hours on end and found masses falling to the same vehicle malfunction. As of yet my specific VIN# has yet to be recalled regardless of the nature of the malfunctions. I charge you the federal safety agency to press upon chrysler for safety of not only my family but all the others out in the world at risk due to faulty engineering and equipment.
