Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I own a 2006 dodge ram 2500 truck with approximately 57000 miles on it and it started acting erratically with the lights and wipers and now the battery completely goes dead. We have replaced the battery and checked for drain on the battery. In spite of turning everything off and unplugging anything which would cause a drain on the electrical system it still made a new battery go dead. It is very dangerous to drive it when the wipers act so funny and the dimmer switch fails to lower the beams. It would seem that the only solution is to take it to the dealer at a considerable expense to see what is wrong. The manufacturer should investigate and repair any defect in materials for the truck with that few miles on it.
