Wiper works intermittently, sometimes it functions, sometimes it doesn't turn off. This causes a dangerous condition in rain storms. After some research it appears to be a condition across the entire Ram platform and needs to be addressed because it is a serious safety issue. Wiper motor and switch have been replaced with new parts but the issue continues.

Heater blender door actuator not allowing defrost to warm the windshield and defrost making visibility impossible. This seems to be an ongoing problem with ram trucks and should be included in a recall fix

The heater core is clogged and there is no heat on drivers side. No way to defrost windshield impairing visability.
