Owner complaint summary

On a recent 9hr drive to home the headlights got so dim that I needed to turn on the fog lights to be able to cautiously continue the drive to home. The low voltage and low headlight output makes driving at night a very dangerous situation and can come on quickly. The voltage on the cars digital display varied between 12.2 and 12.3 volts. The halogen headlights are designed for 13.8 volts. The vehicle has been checked by two Dodge dealer and they both have stated it is within the specifications of the Dodge Star Online Publication # S2008000031 REV. A which is attached.

This was reported to Chrysler under case number 80419497 and I was told I Will Not hear back from Chrysler.
