Description of the problem | On july 30th, 2014 my wife went shopping and when she came out the car was running. I asked her if she was sure she shut it off. She said yes. Then a few day's later we went to eat and upon trying to start the car to leave it would not start. It said press start. It did and nothing. After several attempts it started with the security alarm going off. I shut off and re-started and all appeared ok. Today august 27, 2014 i went to a store and when i came out the car again was running. I am 100% positive that i did shut off and also locked the car. The car was running and the message was to press the start, with the car already running! On the way home, it seemed warm with the ac going. I had pushed the auto button and noticed the ac showed off. On the way home i tested the ac by pushing auto and the ac went off. I pushed just the ac and it stayed on. This is and incidental issue with my main concern being the "ghost" starting and the trouble starting. I was trying to check my vin for any recalls or complaints and found that there are many complaints on this vehicle with the tipm module. It appears from reading other complaints that we could be in store for more issues, some possibly dangerous. I am trying inquire with the dealer service to see what they say. I have been waiting for 2 hours for them to call me (they were busy when i called and the operator left them my message and to call me). |
