2003 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB Electrical System Problems

MY PASSENGER DOORS, FRONT AND REAR, WILL NOT FUNCTION WITH THE POWER LOCK AND THE WINDOWS CAN ONLY BE ROLLED DOWN FROM THE DRIVERS CONTROLS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN TO ME AS IT WILL MAKE IT DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE FOR SOMEONE TO QUICKLY GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE IF THEY NEED TO BAIL OUT, OR GET OUT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. IF THE DRIVER BECAME ILL HAD A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, PASSENGERS WOULD BE UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THE ELECTRICAL WIRES IN THE DOOR HARNESSES HAVE BROKEN AND CAUSED THE ISSUE TO OCCUR. *TR

WENT TO TURN ON MY LEFT DIRECTIONAL AND HAD A LOSS OF DIRECTIONALS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, WINDSHIELD WASHER AND FOUR WAY FLASHER. CHECKED PROBLEM THOROUGHLY AND FOUND IT TO BE A FAULTY MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH INSTALLED BEHIND STEERING WHEEL. *TR

FOR 2 YEARS MY TRUCK HAS HAD ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD TURNING ON AND OFF FOR NO REASON. NOW THE LAMP OUT, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT ARE ON ALL THE TIME. LEAVING MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL UNABLE TO WORK. WHEN THE DASHBOARD DIES, NOTHING WILL WORK. THIS INCLUDES THE LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, SPEEDOMETER, AND ALL OTHER GAUGES ON THE DASHBOARD. I HAVE BROUGHT IT IN ON A FEW OCCASIONS TO BE FIXED AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S CAUSING IT. IF DRIVING THE TRUCK AT NIGHT OR ON A RAINY DAY, THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. I HAVE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE FOR THE SAME THING. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED! *TR

STALLING WHEN GOING FROM IDLE SUCH AS ACCELLERATING OUT OF A TURN, TURNING FROM A STOP SIGN, PULLING INTO OR OUT OF A PARKING STALL.

I OWN A 2003 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 QUAD CAB SLT VIN 1D7-HU18N53S-188168 ASSEMBLY POINT, WARREN, MICHIGAN. THE TRUCK STALLED WHILE IN TRAFFIC MAKING A 10-15 MPH RIGHT TURN. THE SECOND OCCURENCE WAS JULY15, 2004. VERY CLOSE CALL HERE. I WAS IN THE SMOKEY MOUNTAINS CAMPING. THE SIX HOUR DRIVE HOME TOWING MY POPUP WAS NERVE RACKING TO SAY THE LEAST. ESPECIALLY, SINCE MY 13, 6 AND 3 YEAR OLD WERE IN THE TRUCK. I MENTIONED THAT THE TRUCK RUNS EXTREMELY ROUGH INTERMITTENTLY TO THE DEALER MORGAN DODGE DURHAM NORTH CAROLINA ON AT LEAST TWO OCCASIONS. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING AN INTERMITTENT SHUDDER THAT SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION, ALSO MENTIONED TO THE DEALER ON AT LEAST TWO OCCASIONS. THE DEALER SIMPLY SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE SHUDDER OR STALL. I ALSO HAD A SEVERE BRAKE PULSATION. THEY DID REPLACE FRONT PADS AND CALIPERS AND CUT...

WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, AT TIMES ENGINE IDLES ROUGH AND RPM'S DROP TO ABOUT 350-400 RPM. APPROXIMATELY 75% OF THE TIME IT HAPPENS THE ENGINE QUITS. THE OTHER 25% OF THE TIME IT HAPPENS THE RPM'S INCREASE AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME (20SECONDS TO 1 MINUTE) AND IF STILL IN GEAR THE TRUCK WILL LURCH FORWARD WHEN RPMS INCREASE. PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR TO INCREASE RPM'S DOES NOT AFFECT RPM'S WHEN ENGINE IS STUMBLING AND TRUCK WILL NOT MOVE. DEALER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED, KNOWN PROBLEM WITH ENGINE PROGRAMMING. PROBLEM HAS EXISTED SINCE TRUCK WAS NEW.*AK

DEALER HAD INSPECTED VEHICLE 3 TIMES; FIRS T TIME BATTERY CABLE, SECOND TIME DEALER KEPT VEHICLE 1 DAY AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, AND THIRD TIME INSTALLED A MONITOR FOR TEN DAYS, AND STILL COULDN'T CORRECT THE PROBLEM.
