1 Horn Assembly problem

Failure Date: 07/15/2016

Starting in the summer of 2014 the rear passenger side window would work intermittently July 15, 2016 while driving I smelt something burning. Looked behind me and the backseat was filled with smoke! pulled over and called 911. Firefighters determined that the passenger side window had short circuited. When I turned off the car it had stopped the wires from burning. The firefighters disconnected the wires and I carefully continued on my way. During this time I also had an issue with the door locks constantly locking and unlocking, even when no one was in the car. Also, the horn and steering wheel controls, such as the cruise control and radio controls, went out. I Jeep about the fire/smoke and also told them about the other electrical problems I was having. I met with a Chrysler inspector at a local dealership. Shortly after I received a letter stating that they were not at fault for the issues happening with my Patriot. .
