| Description of the problem | Currently my dodge ram 1500 is having a problem with the multifunction turn signal. If you try to signal a turn the wrong blinker comes on, if you try to turn your high beams on or off the washer fluid comes on, if you try to turn the windshield wipers on they rarely work often getting stuck in the intermittent phase. I first found this problem when my windshield wipers would not come on in a flash thunderstorm while i was traveling on a highway at 65 mph. This is going to cause an accident, if you look there are too many people having this same problem for dodge to ignore it. If an accident occurs i will be taking any legal actions i can to make dodge liable, i just hope that nobody is hurt or killed before it is too late. |
