In the 4 years I have owned this 2007 Dodge Ram I have had to replace the wiper motor 5 times. I was at my fathers funeral, it was snowing and I started the truck but the wipers would not turn on. The wiper motor was just replaced in late fall of last year, less than 6 months. I've only put 12,000 miles on the truck in 4 years. 102,000 miles on.

Wipers won't power on consistently. In fact now can't seem to get them to come on at all. Tried replacing the multi function turn signal/wiper/washer switch without success. Best guess from research is a failed tipm, which is a major expense and has been the subject of previous class action lawsuits. Fortunately it's winter and I discovered they don't work while sitting in the driveway. Yet some days they have worked. Of late they don't seem to come on at all even with the installation of a new multifunction (on the column) switch referenced above.

When using the left turn signal the right signal sometimes flashes. Sometimes the left signal will flash for a few seconds, then the right signal will flash a few times. Failures are intermittent and inconsistent. Also, the wipers and washers operate intermittently, and the high beam switch works about 20% of the time, sometimes requiring a stop to actuate the switch repeatedly so as not to blind oncoming traffic.

The turn signals works sporadically I flip the signal left it will blink right and vice versa or they wont work at all at times also the hazard lights will not work. Along with these symptoms the windshield wipers will not work at the same times as the prior mentioned symptoms. I called the dealer to check vehicle recalls the service agent said there was not any recalls but this is a common complaint on the 2007 Dodge Ram it is a very dangerous situation as it was raining during the last episode the visibility was extremely low and I was unable to properly let the other motorist my intention to merge out of traffic.
