Description of the problem	On july 30, 2006 my cabin controls (a/c, defrost, vent and window wipers) would not work. I took the vehicle to my local mechanic who identified the problem in the wiring harness in the steering column. My local mechanic made an attempt to fix the problem but when he contacted dodge for a replacement part they refused to sell it to them due to a recall on the model year before mine (2002). I had to take my vehicle to dave croft motors in collinsville, il for repair costing me approx 2x's more than my local shop. Dave croft said the wiring harness and ignition switch was bad due to the faulty part. When i question dodge about this harness and the recall they would not provide me any information. Dave croft fixed the problem as of this date however, i am still waiting to hear from dodge if they will cover this repair. (recalled part in 2002 dodge is the same part in my 2003). *jb
