Description of the problem	Bought a used 2006 dodge ram 2500 trx4 with the 5. 9l cummins. Driving home from the used car dealership, my turn signal switch was not working properly. It would vary from when i had in the left turn position, sometimes the right blinker would flash too, or nothing would blink. Sometimes, when i make a right turn and initiate the right turn signal, nothing flashes or if i put it in the left turn position, then the right turn signal flashes. I purchased it used on sep 1, 2009; and this is my first dodge and more importantly, a life-threatening equipment fault/malfunction. I have read online several articles of this affecting several year model dodge ram 2500/3500 trucks. If this is known, why isn't a "recall" initiated and i as a user/consumer, now has to pay another $100 for a multi turn switch, from which i read, may malfunction within a year.
