Consumer Description

LIKE MANY MANY OTHERS 2006 DODGE RAM PICK-UPS I HAVE LOST CONTROL OF THE AIR HANDLING HEATER, DEFROST SYSTEM AND THERE IS NO CONSISTENT CONTROL OR OPERATION. THIS IS A KNOWN DESIGN FLAW IN THE SYSTEM. THIS CONDITION WILL NOT ALLOW FROST/ICE REMOVAL OR DEFOGGING OF THE WINDSHIELD AND SIDE WINDOWS LEAVING THE DRIVER UNABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE VEHICLE WHICH CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS ACCIDENTS THAT COULD LEAD TO SEVERE INJURY AND DEATH.. *TR
