problem #3

Nitro SXT 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 165,000 miles

The electrical problem with my car where the lights go on and off by themselves or stay on for an extended period is happening again. I had this same problem back in October 2016. I make sure when I get out of the car that everything is off (wipers, radio, lights). My daughter who sleeps near the window where the car is parked outside, tells me the lights went on an off all night last night. However, no one is around or using the keys to turn the car on an off. I know this is killing my battery which is fairly new (3 months old). I have missed work, spent money on rental cars etc. while having this car diagnosed in the past and cannot afford to go through this again so that my dealership can tell me there is nothing wrong with my car. It is possessed.

The headlights and inside lights turn on and off by themselves. The truck door locks also unlock after truck has been locked.

Nitro 4L V6

  • Automatic transmission

This actually has been going on for a couple of months. The headlights go on by themselves and drain the battery. I was stuck without a car 3 times already. Yes, it happened 3 times. And the doors unlock themselves.
