Description of the problem	While driving my truck it just shut off, died and would not start back up. This was very dangerous! Going 65 miles an hour, in the center lane trying to get over to the side of the road... Safely! I tried to start the truck... Everything came on as normal, but would not crank. I had to have the truck towed $$. The alternator was replaced $$. Truck still would not start. It would not crank, you could hear clicking under the hood and you could hear the fuel pump come on. I was told it was the win module which cost me $870. 00!! (win module and programming) evidently this is a common problem with dodge trucks. What does it take to have a recall on this part?!! Does it take a certain number of crashes or deaths? All in all it cost me about $1500, but it could have cost me my life, my girlfriends life, and possibly people in other vehicles that were driving around me. I have researched and found that other dodge vehicles were affected with this faulty part and there was a recall put out. There again, i ask dodge.... What does it take to have a recall on this part for ram 1500 trucks?? I hope that all owners that had or is having this problem to file a report! Please! Read all the discussions similar to mine on dodge forum. Again, please report these types of problems, they will not know how may vehicles are affected if it
