WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WEREN'T IN, AND THEY WOULD CALL US IN THE FALL. WE DID CALL THEM AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE STILL NOT IN. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT WE HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND WITH A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG FOR A LONG TIME NOW. OUR DEALER IS IN LITTLETON, N.H. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, POWER TRAIN
MY FOUR WHEEL DRIVE IS ENGAGING ON IT'S OWN. THE SHIFT MOTOR ENGAGES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND TURNED OFF. THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WILL ENGAGE ON IT'S OWN WHILE I AM DRIVING. I HAD THE VEHICLE TESTED AT A CERTIFIED GARAGE AND THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFT MOTOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. AFTER RESEARCHING DODGE/CHRYSLER ISSUES, I HAVE FOUND THAT QUITE A FEW OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE. THEY ALSO CHANGED THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFT MOTOR AND THE PROBLEM WAS NOT RESOLVED. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF CHRYSLER IS GOING TO FIX THEIR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE DODGE FOUR WHEEL DRIVES. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND COULD NOT GET MY HEADLIGHTS TO TURN ON. ALL CONNECTIONS AND BULBS WERE CHECKED BY A MECHANIC AND THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN TRACED TO THE CTM (CENTRAL TIMING MODULE). THESE UNITS ARE ON NATIONWIDE BACK ORDER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND A SERIOUS REPLACEMENT ISSUE IF PEOPLE ARE LOSING THEIR HEADLIGHTS AND THE PART IS ON AN UNKNOWN BACK ORDER SITUATION.
