Lighting complaints
Headlights will turn on and off intermittently while driving , or will turn on by themselves without the key in ignition. My mechanic have replaced 3 headlight switches but its not working. Also the car has major electrical problems from internal lamps to headlights. I have read lot of review from other users. I can file a lawsuit with user consumers if I have to against dodge. This thing is very annoying and dodge should pay for this. *Nm
Dt*: the contact stated the inside of the headlights became progressively cloudy, to the point that the light was obscured at night. The vehicle was taken to a independent repair shop, who was unable to determine the problem. Both headlights were replaced.
Headlight lens corroded resulting in less light on the road at night. *Nm
