NHTSA Complaint #10781530 — 2009 DODGE RAM 2500

DRIVER SIDE REAR PASSENGER INTERIOR DOOR LOCK AND INTERIOR LIGHT DOES STOPPED WORKING OVER A YEAR AGO. I FIGURED IT WAS A SELONOID OR A LOOSE CONNECTION IN THE DOOR SO I PUT IT OFF. JUST RECENTLY 10/11/2015 I TOOK THE TIME TO TAKE THE DOOR APART AND CHECK ALL THE CONNECTIONS. I HAD POWER TO THE SPEAKER AND WINDOW AND NOTHING TO THE LOCK AND INTERIOR LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON WHEN THE DOOR IS OPEN. SO I THEN CHECKED FOR LOOSE CONNECTIONS EVERYTHING GOOD. I THEN CHECKED THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE CAB AND THE DOOR AND I HAD A GOOD CLEAN CONNECTION. I THEN PULLED BACK THE RUBBER WIRE LOOM BETWEEN THE CAB AND THE DOOR AND I FOUND 4 UNEVENLY CUT WIRES. I DID NOT FIX THEM I LEFT THE CONNECTOR DISCONNECTED. THIS IS COULD BE A EXTREMELY DANGEROUS NOT TO MENTION POTENTIALLY DEADLY FIRE HAZARD. SOME HOW THE LOOM IS CUTTING THE WIRES AND COULD RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY AND OR DEATH.
