| The turn signal will intermittently malfunction, causing the right indicator to blink though the lever is in the down position which when operational should signal the left indicator. this is a serious safety concern for myself as i have had multiple instances where i'm positioned in the left turn lane attempting to execute a left turn and signaling to oncoming traffic my intentions only to have the right blinker activate and cause traffic to stop abruptly in the lane i just exited. i am not only exposing myself to a rear end collision but i am also exposing the unsuspecting driver being incorrectly signaled to the same potential fate. the inability to caution oncoming traffic of my intentions also creates a potentially hazardous situation in that my turn could startle them causing them to turn sharply or stop abruptly. both could have detrimental impact provided the conditions are less than perfect in a state that commonly has severe winter weather. | |||

| My 2006 dodge ram truck turns on the wrong turn signal, for instance if i am making a right turn and i push the stalk up, the left turn signal turns on. this is an intermittent problem and sometimes my turn signals work and sometimes they do not. i also have the related problem that i have no control over my windshield wipers. when i turn them on, they will stay on for minutes at a time on a high speed and not turn off. other times they will only go one or two times and shut off completely while it is pouring rain. | |||

| Currently my dodge ram 1500 is having a problem with the multifunction turn signal. if you try to signal a turn the wrong blinker comes on, if you try to turn your high beams on or off the washer fluid comes on, if you try to turn the windshield wipers on they rarely work often getting stuck in the intermittent phase. i first found this problem when my windshield wipers would not come on in a flash thunderstorm while i was traveling on a highway at 65 mph. this is going to cause an accident, if you look there are too many people having this same problem for dodge to ignore it. if an accident occurs i will be taking any legal actions i can to make dodge liable, i just hope that nobody is hurt or killed before it is too late. | |||
