The airbag light will not go off it stays on all the time when it is on the heater windows horn and rear back up lights and rear defroster do not work with no heater/defroster it is near impossible to keep the ice off the inside and outside of the windows even while having the passenger constantly trying to scrape off the ice it just instantly re freezes causing very dangerous and hazardous driving conditions due to this the car went off the road and crashed into a deep ditch the air bags did not deploy and we had to be towed out of the ditch with a hoist and a lift and back to the road by a commercial wrecker from what I have seen and heard when searching the internet for information this problem is most likely caused by the clock stop the same problem which prompted a recall on dodge and chrysler mini vans of the same year why wasn't this car recalled too? I know I am not the only one with this problem there are thousands and thousands of complaints listed on the internet for this same problem by other dodge intrepid owners this is a very serious safety hazard also the fact the windows don't work can cause entrapment in the vehicle

We were in a car accident on june 13, 2008. We were traveling east in a 2004 dodge intrepid on a 2 lane street and in the opposite lane a 2001 ford f-150 pickup truck was traveling west. The owner of the truck that was traveling west failed to yield to oncoming traffic and proceeded to make a left hand turn into a driveway. As we can over a hill traveling at rates of speed of 25-30 MPH was when the driver made his turn. Upon impact the whole front bumper of the intrepid came off, smoking and grinding sounds were very loud. The hood folded up and the headlights flew off. The damage to the intrepid was very bad. The airbags never deployed in the intrepid. The police report listed this as a head on collision. As of right now I was the passenger in the intrepid and have sustained some very serious nerve damage and a shoulder injury. As well as bruising across my chest. But our concern is that when we bought our car we were told that the airbags would work in a accident. Which they failed to do.
