1 Turn Signal problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2018

The rear brake lights and rear turn signals quit working. The bulbs have been changed and the car has been tested. It is the light control system that is faulty and the dealership said it is an expensive repair. The brake lights and turn signals will not work and this is a very dangerous issue. I see this has been an issue/recall with other model years.

2 Turn Signal problem

Failure Date: 07/04/2016

Right side headlight assembly inoperative. No high beam, low beam, or turn signal / flasher function. Replaced bulbs several times and all test good in other fixtures such as driver side lamp assembly. Engine is throwing "cylinder 3 misfire detected". Plugs, wires replaced with no repair.

3 Turn Signal problem

Failure Date: 01/14/2016

Vehicle was started in the morning and headlights and turn signals would not operate. Vehicle was taken to a repair shop and was diagnosed as a problem with the integrated power module. The module had to be reset to make the lights operable again.

4 Turn Signal problem

Failure Date: 08/21/2015

My tipm (totally integrated power module) is faulty. The headlights and turn signal lights do not work. Bulbs have been checked and replaced with brand new, tested and fully functional bulbs, but this has not rectified the problem. Sometimes the car will not start at all. The battery is fine, as the car engine will turn over, however, the car will not fire up. I will leave it, and try later, and the car will subsequently start. This starting trouble is an intermittent issue. I have read that there was a class action law suit for many Chrysler vehicles with tipm problems, but I did not see Pt Cruiser owners included within those actions. Having researched the matter, I see that many other Pt Cruiser owners like myself are having issues with their electrical systems as a result of faulty tipms.
