Hands free module quit working, common problem with Dodge/Chrysler, ac will not recirculate causes only outside air to be drawn into the cab, cause is malfunctioning/bad humidity sensor about the resr view mirror, driver heated seat quit working, left headlight quit working, bad hid ballast. The gas and brake pedal assembly will retract on it's own while driving. The transmission w5a580-nag1-722. 6 either shift extremely hard 3-4 4-5 or slips in between the gears causing the engine rpms to go way up and then either falls back into gear or causes a neutral and will not go back into gear until you either drop below 18 mph or completely stop and either put the car in park and back into drive or shut the engine off for about 10 seconds and start it back up. After the flare between gears it is stuck in 3rd gear or limp mode with a check engine light dtc read p0730 through p0735. Literally have to carry a diagnostic scan tool with me to clear the codes. Its extremely dangerous and always happens in the worst places like getting on the interstate or on busy city streets almost causes an accident because you have no choice but to pull over and stop no matter where you are or the conditions around you. . . These are all very common issues with this car, it would be nice if Chrysler would make it right. . .
