Ram 2500 6-cyl Diesel

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.

Windshield wipers work erratically if at all. The intermittent wiper function timing is off, it will wipe twice, wait a minute, wipe once, wait a minute or two, wipe four or five time back and forth, no matter what the speed setting. The wipers will also get stuck up or in the middle and flat out not work at all sometimes. This is all when it is raining or trying to use windshield wiper fluid to clean the windshield.
