Transfer Case problems of the 2008 Chrysler Aspen

Vehicle engages 4wd lo and 4wd on it's own at any time. Driving this vehicle is dangerous at the transfer case engages automatically while driving. I can also hear 4wd engaging while locking the vehcile with the key fob. This is a well documented issue on the internet and I have read hundreds of stories of people with the same issue. Dodge/Chrysler will replace the transfer case motor which temporarily alleviates the issue. The problem is electrical and dangerous. At the very least, this problem can destory a differential and in the worst case, cause a vehicle to go out of control on a highway/motorway. This issue is prevalent in Dodge durango and Chrysler Aspen vehicles.

This vehicle has awd and electronic shifting of the transfer case. The motor for the transfer case engages and shifts the transmission into 4wd lock during low speed turns and while parked.
