2007 dodge nitro slt - car sitting in driveway overnight the vehicle listed, on multiple occasions, will go into a state where attempting to start the vehicle causes multiple odd things to simultaneously happen: loud clicking noises can be heard from engine compartment headlights / tail lights flash wipers start and stop randomly all dash lights randomly turn on and off radio clock is reset to 12:00 as if the battery was disconnected radio sometimes randomly turns on/off fuel pump can be heard starting and stopping, sometimes will not stop sometimes putting a battery charger on the car's battery will make it start. Sometimes it only makes the clicking louder, along with random other events listed above. Sometimes the only thing that fixes the problem is a thump with a small rubber mallet to the black box just to the rear of the main 12 volt battery. This seems to be more likely to happen in colder weather, but is not limited to happening during cold weather. Sometimes, just unlocking the car doors with the dodge key fob will cause some issues to happen. Sometimes the issues are followed up with check engine light coming on, but when codes are pulled they are invalid codes (codes checked at dealer).
The vehicle windshield wipers wont turn off and turn on, and turn on by themselves when you use the turn signal, or the wipers do not work at all. Whenever this random situation occurs the vehicle will also not start. The starter turns but the engine will not kick over. The driver side door handle broke off at 25,000 miles and the drivers side controls for the windows and locks operates at about 25% functionality.
