| Description of the problem | The complaint i have is related to my 2004 dodge ram 1500. I have experienced the turn signals do not respond accordingly or not at all. If turning left, the right signal would come on, if turning right, the left signal would come on or not at all. This issue has also affected my windshield wipers speed. I no longer have a high speed wiper option. I feel this is an extremely dangerous issue as vehicles behind me or in front of me will not know which way i am turning or switching lanes if the need is there. I have to continuously have to jiggle the steering wheel to get the signals to work. There are several reports of this issue with various years of the dodge trucks and durangos and believe this should be a recall issue. Thank you for your time. |
