Consumer Description

I WAS RIDING DOWN THE ROAD IN MY RAM 2500 PICKUP ON A COLD SNOWY DAY IN CENTRAL NY WHEN MY DEFROSTER JUST STOPPED WORKING. I WAS FORCED TO PULL OFF THE ROAD NEARLY DRIVING INTO A DITCH BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO SEE. THE WINDSHIELD WAS COMPLETELY FOGGED OVER. I MADE IT HOME STOPPING EVERY MILE TO WIPE THE WINDSHIELD SO I COULD SEE. IWAS TOLD THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE TRUCKS AND AN EXPENSIVE FIX. HOW IS A RECALL NOT DONE ON THESE TRUCKS? IF THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS!!! I AM LOOKING INTO FILING CHARGES AGAINST DODGE FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THAT THEY NOW ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS AND HAVE DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT THEM.
