problem #3

Jul 282001

Ram 2500 6-cyl Diesel

  • 43,310 miles
My safety issue is the fact that I cannot control the airflow to the windshield for safe visibility, the inability to prevent or clear fogging. Snow-ice etc. From my windshield and side windows. Due to failure of transfer doors from poor engineering in the heating and ac system. A very expensive repair especially for some one on a fixed income. This failure seems to be a common fault on 2002-2007 Dodge at just over 40000 miles.

Window sometimes works and sometimes doesn't from the drivers door switches, open the same door and the interior light doesn't come on, third brake light works sometimes, windshield wipers act as if you have them on the constant cycle when it is in the intermittent cycle, blend door does not change from floor to vent or defrost.

Ram 2500 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles
2005 Dodge Ram 1500, defrost door in heater/HVAC housing broken, not allowing for 'full' defrost of the windshield. Difficult in colder climate (Michigan) to keep windshield clear. Repair tops $700 with only $50 in parts. Chrylser will not assist with the repair however they have a tsb dating back to 2003 identifying the problem.
