Description of the problem | Our 2008 dodge caravan was parked in a parking lot for 10 minutes when out of nowhere the lights start flashing, horn blaring, wipers running, and could not get it to stop. This has happened intermittently five or six times with varying degrees of length (2 seconds to 30 minutes). Last time it happened i drove it to the chrysler dealer with the wipers and wiper washers squirting (i had since removed the horn fuses). They charged $136. 00 to look at the codes and tell us they can't replicate the problem, so screw you. We're afraid to drive it as when the problem occurs it will only drive in first gear. It's interesting to see that there are others with the exact same symptoms and the fingers are pointing to the tipm. I'd like to sell it but can't really do so with a clear conscience. This sucks. |
