2013 Ram 3500 Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1065656
Internal NHTSA #	10588141
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	RAM
Model	3500
Model Year	2013
File date	05/05/14
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Our new 2013 ram truck (six weeks) has an electrical short to ground in the drivers door lock switch and module (part # 68110866aa & 68155771af) that are locking the doors by themselves. Dealer assures me that there is "zero" chance of a fire occurring even though there is an electrical short. This must be a common problem, as the parts to fix the issue are on national back order and no estimate of a fix is available. I do not believe there is a zero chance of a fire with an electrical short and have not been parking the vehicle in our garage until this is fixed. This may be something that needs to be looked into with an electrical short occurring.
