Magnum

  • Automatic transmission
  • 212,000 miles

My Magnums lights go on and off. It is very dangerous, I can't drive at night and if I get caught out and it gets dark I may not make it home. I have had it in the shop approx 8 times, they ran every type of test on it, changed out ignition switch, have new head lights . But no codes are coming up and they can't find what is wrong. It is in the shop again, the lights are going on and off and my car will just die when I start to slow down. I have had pictures of all my dash lights on and when they hook it up to get codes Nothing comes up that has to do with this. I have also paid out for the electrical to be tested at $75 an hour. And nothing is coming up. All electrical is showing ok. But my lights keep going out and it dies on me many times a week. I had my granddaughter with me one of the times and she was scared to death. I was going around a curve and it died and I was having problems steering when the power when off.

Someone needs to fix this. A recall really needs to be done. And yes I am taking it to the Dodge dealers,
