Consumer Description

TURN SIGNAL WILL BLINK THE WRONG DIRECTION, WILL SOMETIMES NOT WORK AT ALL, WILL SOMETIMES TURN THE WIPERS ON WHEN THE SIGNAL IS PUSHED UP OR DOWN, THE HEADLIGHTS WILL STAY ON BRIGHT, MOVE THE TURNING SIGNAL AND WIPERS MIGHT DISCHARGE WASHER FLUID. APPEARS TO BE SHORT IN SIGNAL SWITCH. WHEN THE TURN SIGNAL IS PLACED INTO A CERTAIN DIRECTIONS, OTHER CARS DON'T KNOW WHICH WAY YOU ARE TURNING AND ABOUT CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. WIPERS SOMETIMES WILL NOT WORK IN RAINING CONDITIONS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BUT DODGE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT FIX WITHOUT RECALL WHICH I THINK IS A CONCERN SINCE THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PROBLEMS BEEN REPORTED TO THEM AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS. THIS IS NOT A ONE TIME PROBLEM, THE 2005-2007 DODGE YEAR MODEL SWITCHES HAVE A LOT OF HITS ON THE INTERNET REPORTING THE PROBLEMS. *TR
