problem #2

Ram 2500

  • 120,000 miles
The contact owns a 2003 Dodge 2500. The contact stated that the wiring harness failed and was repaired under warranty. On a separate occasion, the defroster and windshield wipers failed. While utilizing the driver's side turn signal, the passenger side turn signal would illuminate instead. This failure was also repaired under warranty. In addition, the contact was experiencing very hard vibrations form the front end of the vehicle. He struck a squirrel in the road and nearly lost control of the vehicle due to the vibrations. A local service dealer replaced the steering linkages in the vehicle at the contact's expense. He later received a recall notice for the suspension and excessive vibrations (steering linkages). The NHTSA campaign id number was unknown. The current and failure mileages were less than 120,000.

: the contact stated the headlights and turn signals will not work properly. A light illuminated on the dash indicating there was a problem with the lights. The contact replaced every bulb. This did not remedy the problem. The dealership determined the dash cluster needed to be replaced. The contact installed another dash cluster. This did not remedy the problem. After the replacement of the dash cluster, the left rear turn signal and left rear brake light will not work.
