While sitting at a traffic light, most or all of the warning lights came on, wipers came on, horn started honking and the engine stalled. The horn continued to honk, the wipers to operate as if I had turned them on, which I had not. Once I was able to restart the engine, the incident stopped and operated fine until the next occurrence. The second and third time this same thing happened; I was driving on an interstate, somewhere between 60 and 70mph, and all the above random things happened again, although the engine did not stall. The fourth time I was driving in suburban traffic and stopped at a light, all the same things happened and the engine did stall. I was not able to stop the horn from blaring, nor shut off the high beams this time, even after the engine was stopped and the key was withdrawn. I had to disconnect the battery cable to shut off the horn and lights. Once I reconnected the battery, about an hour later, all was fine again. These 4 occurrences happened over the last ~2 months at random times in various traffic and weather conditions. It's frightening to think that I may be on an interstate in heavy traffic, and the engine stalls!
Received a notice in the mail of a recall with the ignition switch. After contacting the dealer they still do not have the proper part for the repair in their inventory. On a number of occasions while driving I have gotten warning lights on my dash and vehicle stalling occurring which is a distraction. To this date I have not been contacted about scheduling a date for repair.
My jeep commander started having trouble skipping. There was a recall on the control module and the fix determined by chrysler was to re-program it. I took it in to have the recall performed and the transmission check afterwards. When I arrived to pick it up, the dealership said the technician was out sick so all they could do was the recall. The car drove worse after I started home and failed to get transition between gears. I was forced to stop at the closest transmission shop. Their certified technician diagnosed that the transmission was bad. So, I had them they replaced it. When they went to test drive it, apparently the new transmission also failed due to the control module. They took it to the dealership and had a new control module installed. After repairing the new transmission, I was charged $4000. Whatever the recall "fix" for the control module was, it clearly was the cause for the transmission's destruction. The other recall for the ignition could not be done because chrysler has no manufactured part to fix it. I sold the commander the next day. I needed reliable transportation. The consumer stated she started having problems with the starter. Updated 04/06/15
