2006 DODGE RAM 2500 Complaints

TURN SIGNAL WILL FLASH THE OPPOSITE SIGNAL THAN THE DIRECTION YOU DESIRE. EXAMPLE, TURNING ON THE LEFT TURN SINGLE WILL CAUSE THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL TO FLASH, AND VISE VERSA, AS WELL AS CAUSING THE EMERGENCY SIGNALS TO ACTIVATE. I AM UNABLE TO INDICATE TO OTHER DRIVERS MY CORRECT DIRECTION OF TURN WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC OR AT A SIGNAL LIGHT, STOP SIGN, MERGING, CHANGING LANES, ECT..

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE ENGINE STARTED DYING THEN TAKING BACK OFF, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SPEED ODOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO WOULDNT COME BACK UP WHILE I WAS STILL MOVING, THEN THE ABS LIGHT THE CHECK ENGING LIGHT AND THE BRAKE LIGHT AND WASHER FLUID LIGHT ALL CAME ON AND I LOST POWER TO THE TAIL LIGHTS HEAD LIGHTS AND THE WINDOWS STARTED ROOLING UP AND DOWN BY THEM SELVES. WHEN I GOT HOME AND TURNED OFF THE TRUCK I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS THE TIPM AND IT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID THE TRAILER I WAS PULLING MUST OF HAD A SHORT AND THATS WHAT CAUSED IT. I TOLD THEM THAT I WASNT PULLING A TRAILER AND THEY CALLED ME A LIAR AND HUNG UP ON ME THE WINDOWS CONTINUED TO ROLL UP AND DOWN UNTILL THE BATT WAS DISCONNECTED. THE NEXT MORNING I THEN HOOKED THE BATTERY BACK UP AND IT ALL WORKED FINE. NO PROBLEM A COUPLE WEEKS LATER IT STARTED AGAIN FINALL FOUND A SHORT IN THE LIGHT CONTROL ON THE RIGHT TAIL LIGHT REPLACED THE PART THAT HOLDS THE BULBS AND THE PROBLEM CORRECTED ITSELF. NOW IT HAS SINCE STARTED DOING IT ALL AGAIN BUT WILL NOT RESET ITSELF I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE TIPM WOULD RESET ITSELF FIVE TIMES THEN WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE VEH WAS NOT PULLING A TRAILER WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND THE ONLY TRAILER I PULL WITH IT HAS THE LIGHTING PACKAGE WORKING FINE ON ALL TRUCKS I HOOK IT TO BUT NOT THIS ONE. PLEASE GET THE DODGE COMPANY TO RECALL THESE PEICES OF JUNK IM TIRED OF PAYING 1200 DOLLARS TO REPLACE A BUNCH OF PARTS TO FIND OUT ITS THEIR PIECE OF JUNK TIPM CAUSING ALL THE PROBLEMS.

WHEN SWITCHING ON A TURN SIGNAL, BOTH LIGHTS FLASH OR NOTHING HAPPENS. WIPERS FAIL OR WORK SPORADICALLY. WIPERS DON'T WORK WHEN I NEED THEM TO AND CAUSES ME TO NOT DRIVE IN THE RAIN. THE BLINKERS WORK HALF THE TIME AND ALMOST CAUSES SOMEONE TO HIT MY TRUCK BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT I WAS TURNING RIGHT WHEN I HAD THE BLINKER TO TURN LEFT.

NO INDICATORS OF ANY ISSUES TO THIS - WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 65 AND 75 MPH THE TRUCK BEGINS TO SMOKE NOT ONLY OUT OF THE BACK END OF THE TRUCK BUT UNDERNEATH THE BODY AS WELL AS UNDER THE HOOD OF THE TRUCK, AND WE BEGAN TO SMELL FUEL. THE CEL LIGHT THEN COMES ON. WE HAD THE WHOLE FAMILY IN THE TRUCK AND A SMALL FIRE EXTINGUISHER. THIS IS REALLY NERVING SINCE DODGE/CHRYSLER AS WELL AS CUMMINS KNOWING THIS LINE IS A PROBLEM AND HAS NOT DONE A DARN THING ABOUT IT TO RECTIFY ANY COMPENSATION. I HATE TO SAY THIS BUT I GUESS IT IS GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE GETTING REALLY HURT BUT YOUR ATTITUDE OF NOT WANTING RECALL SUCH A FIRE HAZARD! LOOK AT ALL THE FORUMS AND SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE FUEL LINE! LINE TO 4TH INJECTOR NOW MAJOR REPAIR BECAUSE OF IT ALL THE FUEL LOST UNDER THE HOOD AND ALL OVER THE ENGINE AND FIREWALL!
