| Description of the problem | I have a 2006 dodge ram quad cab and recently the turn signal / wiper switch has been acting up. Quite often when i push down to turn the left turn signal on the right comes on and there are times when no turn signal comes on at all. I was almost rear-ended because of this. Also sometimes the wipers will not come out of intermittent no matter what setting i have them on. Again this almost caused an accident because during a heavy rainstorm all that i could get to work was intermittent. I have read online of other 2006 dodge ram owners having these same issues. This is a huge safety concern and should be recalled. |
