| Description of the problem | I first noticed the problem hooking up a trailer. My vehicles left turn signal does not operate. I also noticed the brake light on the left side does not operate. I decided to get my vehicle checked out by my local mechanic. I stated my problem to my mechanic, at once he stated, this is a common problem with 2006 dodge ram 3500? S. He said the integrated control module or tipm has failed. It fails on these trucks all the time. My question to him why does dodge not have a way to fix the problem correctly? This is a safety issue for me and other driver? S if it fails going down the road. Not to mention every time it fails it cost 800. 00 to fix the problem. |
