2006 DODGE RAM 2500 Equipment Problems

I OWN A 2006 DODGE RAM 2500 TRUCK WITH APPROXIMATELY 57000 MILES ON IT AND IT STARTED ACTING ERRATICALLY WITH THE LIGHTS AND WIPERS AND NOW THE BATTERY COMPLETELY GOES DEAD. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND CHECKED FOR DRAIN ON THE BATTERY. IN SPITE OF TURNING EVERYTHING OFF AND UNPLUGGING ANYTHING WHICH WOULD CAUSE A DRAIN ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IT STILL MADE A NEW BATTERY GO DEAD. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IT WHEN THE WIPERS ACT SO FUNNY AND THE DIMMER SWITCH FAILS TO LOWER THE BEAMS. IT WOULD SEEM THAT THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AT A CONSIDERABLE EXPENSE TO SEE WHAT IS WRONG. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD INVESTIGATE AND REPAIR ANY DEFECT IN MATERIALS FOR THE TRUCK WITH THAT FEW MILES ON IT. *TR

1)THE AC / HEATER MOTOR STARTING MAKING A LOUD VIBRATING SOUND AND VERY LITTLE AIR WAS COMING FROM THE VENTS. 2). THE RECIRCULATION DOOR WHICH IS LOCATED ABOVE THE FAN (IN THE DUCT) BROKE AND FELL ON TOP OF THE BLOWER FAN. THIS DOOR CONTROLS WEATHER OUTSIDE AIR IS USED OR THE AIR IS RECIRCULATED THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT THE AC/HEATER AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THE DEFROSTER WOULD NOT WORK. AN INTERNET SEARCH OF THIS PROBLEM REVEALS MANY DIFFERENT DODGE YEARS AND MODELS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PART CAN BE REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP FOR A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $700. THE DASH MUST BE REMOVED TO REPLACE THE PART. MOST PEOPLE (ALONG WITH ME) ARE REMOVING THE FAN MOTOR AND SIMPLE REMOVING THE RECIRCULATION DOOR ALTOGETHER WHICH IS A CHEAP SEMI-FIX. ONE BLOG WEBSITE CAN BE SEEN AT HTTP://AUTOFORUM.CLASSIFIEDS1000.COM/DODGE-1500_PICKUP/A_C_FAN_NOISE_EXCESSIVE_A_C_AIR_FLOW_REDUCED?PG=5. 3). THE PART HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED, THE DEALER...

DRIVING ALONG A BUSY INTERSTATE AT 65MPH, AFTER GOING OVER A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD THE STEERING BECAME SO VIOLENT AND UNCONTROLLABLE. LATER READ IT IS KNOWN AS THE DODGE DEATH WOBBLE. SEEMS IT HA HAPPENED TO MORE THAN JUST THIS DODGE OWNER ON A STOCK TRUCK. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL, IS CHRYSLER WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE BEFORE THEY REACT? WHY BE REACTIVE WHEN YOU CAN BE PROACTIVE WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN NOTED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING A DODGE SPRINTER, AND I STOPPED ON A LIGHT TO WAIT FOR A GREEN TO CAME, AND WHEN I STARED MOVING, AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN I HAD TO MAKE STOP, BECAUSE A CAR ON FRONT OF ME, STOPPED, I PUSHED A BRAKES A FEW TIMES, AND IT DIDN'T WORK, AND AFTER I MADE AN ACCIDENT, SOMEONE TRIED A CAR, AND IT DID WORK! I FOUND THIS MATERIAL ON THE WEB SITE, THAT I WILL GIVE YOU A LINK TO IT. IT WILL HELP YOU! HTTP://WWW.AUTOMOTIX.NET/AUTOREPAIR/RECALLS/9149-RECALL/. *TR

THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWS WARMER AIR OUT PASSENGER VENTS THAN FROM THE DRIVER SIDE VENTS. ALSO, WHEN WE HAVE IT ON FACE ONLY AIR STILL COMES OUT OF THE FEET VENTS. WE TOOK IT IN AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. WE FEEL THE A/C SHOULD COOL MORE EFFICIENTLY. *TR
