 On 2/22/10 i took my dodge nitro slt in for the windshield washer recall to the dealership. every since the wiper washer (t.i.p.m) was replaced i've had the mil light come on three times, stalling and the panic alarm going off when i use the remote to unlock the car. the dealership has taken the nitro on the road to reset the mil light, intermittently the panic alarm still goes out, they're replaced the t.i.p.m on 5/19/10; suggesting that i got a bad one a day later the panic alarm went off again. the only way it stopped was to drive it.
