 Description of the problemPreparing to turn left from us69 onto county road. Left turn signal on. Began the turn and a pickup began to pass on the left. He ran off of the left side of the highway at a highway speed. Very nearly rolled. Couldn't understand why he would pass as i was turning left. Later, a friend was following me and called me on me cell and asked if i knew my right blinker was flashing when i changed lanes to the left. Pulled over to test. Sometimes it would blink left. Other times it would go immediately to the right blinker. Other times it will start left and switch to the right. Googling the problem, i find it is a problem with the multifunction switch and from the dodge diesel forums, been around for awhile and quite common. Dodge evidently denies there is a problem. Totally inconceivable that a part could fail and have the exact opposite thing happen than what was intended. If there have not been fatalities or injuries related to this, i would be surprised. Maybe not even realized. Here is a link to one of the forums and the first post form 08 is almost identical as what happened to me. Http://www. Dieseltruckresource. Com/dev/showthread. Php?

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
