Consumer Description

DODGE RAM 2500 - E17 SAFETY RECALL THIS WARRANTY ITEM WAS INSTALLED ON MY TRUCK AND NOW THE HORN HONKS OFTEN WHEN I GO FROM REVERSE TO PARK... OR PARK TO REVERSE THE DEALERSHIP IS REFUSING TO UNDO THIS RECALL. THIS IS AN UNSATISFACTORY SOLUTION TO THE INITIAL PROBLEM AND MANY CUSTOMERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS "FIX". THE CURRENT FIX CAUSES ALMOST 100% FALSE ALERTS. FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT, THERE IS NO VALUE HERE AS THE DRIVER JUST BECOMES ACCUSTOM TO IGNORING THE ALARM... THUS LEAVING THE ORIGINAL DANGER IN PLACE. PLEASE, IF POSSIBLE, PRESSURE DODGE TO EITHER REDO THE RECALL AND ACTUALLY FIX THE MECHANICAL PROBLEM WITH FALSE-PARK ISSUES OR AT LEAST HAVE THEM MAKE THE CURRENT "FIX" MORE ACCURATE. *TR
