NHTSA Complaint #10263085 — 2002 DODGE RAM 1500

MY 2002 DODGE CARAVAN HAS NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE PASSENGER AND BACK WINDOWS ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THE INSIDE DOOR PANEL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS ALSO BECOMING LOOSE. THE AIR CONDITIONER STARTED ONLY WORKING ON HIGH SPEED. THEN IT WOULDN'T WORK AT ALL UNLESS YOU GIGGLED THE KEY A CERTAIN WAY. NOW IT WON'T WORK AT ALL. THESE TRUCKS HAVE BEEN SUBJECT TO A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. "THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STEERING COLUMN CONTAINS AN UNDER-SIZED TERMINAL FOR THE HVAC BLOWER MOTOR CIRCUIT." PER THE RECALL "'DEALERS WILL INSTALL A WIRING HARNESS OVERLAY TO CORRECT THIS CONDITION" I CONTACTED THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE MONSTROSITY AND HE WAS RUDE AND CLAIMED THIS TRUCK WAS NOT SUBJECT TO THAT RECALL. I ALSO CALLED THE NATIONAL NUMBER AND THEY REFUSED TO REPAIR THEIR DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. WE LIVE IN FLORIDA AND IT IS DANGEROUS TO HAVE TO RIDE IN A VEHICLE WITHOUT AIR CONDITIONING. OUR DODGE CARAVAN ALSO HAS A DEFECTIVE AIR CONDITIONER. I RUE THE DAY I EVER BOUGHT A DODGE. *TR
