This is a complaint about a malfunctioning blinker in my 2006 Dodge 1500 Ram truck. I have been reading that there are numerous complaints about this happening. The blinker starts going left when you have it to turn right and vice versa. It's crazy and so dangerous! I took my truck in to see about getting it fixed and of course the warranty went out yesterday! I hope for others sake that this becomes a recall item! thank you
