Windshield wipers work once and then they stop working. I see this has been an issue on a lot of Dodge during these years. My truck doesn't have the recall. But this is a serious problem, I crashed into someone due to it. Please figure this out I know of several people that this has happened to as well.

Windshield wipers often dont activate when turned on, and sometimes turn on when not activated. Wipers often turn on when unlocking doors with key fob. When wipers are turned on, they cycle for 5 swipes and then stop. Has jeopardized my safety multiple times, until problem was repaired at local dealership.

The ac/heater plenum doors do not work and defrosting the windshield is impossible at times (very common in all size Ram trucks). I live in Colorado and this happens while driving and it is cold out. Dodge has to be aware of the cheap plastic vent doors they used.

Windshield wipers work intermittently on delay. Sometimes they work but the majority of the time they don't. they also stopped working on the fastest speed and will sometimes stop working all together or come on by themselves. This seems to be a very common problem (google). There doesn't seem to be an easy fix unless you start changing parts and modules. Vehicle does not give a code for the problem.

Driving westbound on M46 during dusk, headlights were on, suddenly I was being signaled my high beams were on. I stopped at a nearby gas station to check out what was going on and all of my lights had failed. Closer inspection revealed the totally integrated power module had failed without warning.

On the 27th of Nov, 2013 my heater quit working on the defrost mode. I turn the switch from 1 position to another and nothing happens, it just keeps putting out air through the front vents. Nothing out the defroster. Dangerous if trying to drive in bad weather.

- Pueblo West, CO, USA

While driving in the early am with fog and humidity, the defroster stopped blowing warm air, as air was diverted though the dash vents and not the defroster vents. I had made sure the dial was turned all the way to the right (defrost) but air was still coming out dash vents. Had to pull over as dash was fogging up. No matter what vent is selected on the dial, air not continues to blow through dash vents. This is a safety issue.
