Consumer Description

MY EXTREMELY LOW-MILEAGE RAM IS EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL AND SENSOR ISSUES OF A TRUCK TENS OF THOUSANDS OF MILES HIGHER. THE KEY FOB WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS BUT THE LIGHTS WILL FLASH. THE ESP/BAS LIGHT REMAINS ON ALONG WITH THE SLIPPING LIGHT PLUS THE AIRBAG LIGHT. THEY ALL REMAIN ON. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR PANEL WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS. THE PANEL WILL NOT OPEN OR CLOSE THE 2 REAR WINDOWS, BUT, THE 2 FRONT WINDOWS WILL OPEN AND CLOSE. ALL LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHILE IN MOTION OR PARKED. I DID NOTICE THE COLUMN SHIFTER WAS EXTREMELY LOOSE AND WAS NOT AS TIGHT AS NORMAL. VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 65,000 MILES ON IT. AND IS 8 YEARS OLD POSSIBLY RELATED ISSUES ARE THAT THE TRUCK WAS RECENTLY TAKEN IN FOR WHEEL SENSOR REPLACEMENTS AND LOW IDLE CAUSING STALLING.
