The tipm (totally integrated power control module) has caused fuel pump problems so dealer overlayed the fuel pump costing 400 dollars. It has caused my blinker to interment stop working. It has caused battery failure so we have to replace the battery 150 dollars. Now the driver seat will not move it's a power seat and unless we replace the tipm we will have to spend money to overlay the seat. And sometimes it don't want to start we have no way of paying for the tipm and we were told it's not a part that has been updated to replace it with a faulty part is ludacris. This is a safety issue and needs to be recalled before someone is hurt.
While driving my vehicle at highway speed (75mph), the driver's seat headrest, for lack of a more descriptive term, exploded and struck me in the back of my head. After the incident I stopped the vehicle and looked at the headrest. It appears to be spring loaded and something in the headrest failed causing it to spring forward for no reason. The headrest is now compressed and held in place with zip ties until I can find a replacement. I feel this is a safety issue due to the disorientation and headache that immediately followed the incident.
