problem #2

Nov 162021

1500 Tradesman 5.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles

On the right headlights both the Hi, beam and low beam went out at the same time. That's something that just doesn't ever happen. So I had bought new Headlights. Low beams and high beams, both.

Still didn't work, investigated? It was a common problem. It was an $800 fix, I'm told. For a new headlight.

Module box, I don't sure.

Or why are it over to the other headlights? So that's what I did. It said that it would eventually go out on that side. Also so now I have it on a toggle switch. I've already had to buy a new motor and transmission. Being around $5000 of peace. Who has the money to keep putting into the vehicles? I've only had to truck 3 years.

Any help Thanks

$800.00 +/- to fix or make a good headlight work is criminal!!!! Lights should run off a fuse not a computer. This is a huge safety issue caused by poor design and cheap wiring. How in the world does Chrysler get away with this? Dealership has been of no help. Beware buyers!! Cheap insufficient wiring, poor computer programming on a very expensive truck.
