On two occasions this vehicle experienced a serious safety issue when intermittently the turn signals fail to operate simultaneously with the windshield wipers also stop working. This can happen at any time and is particularly dangerous while in traffic and in a heavy rainstorm without warning the windshield wipers stop. At the same time the turn signals become inoperable so the driver is left without visibility and the inability to notify fellow travelers that he/she must immediately move to the right hand shoulder until the rain stops. This problem happened to me in may of 2007. Mileage on the vehicle was 23,125. The problem was identified by the Dodge technician as a defective multifunction switch - part number 56049823ab. The multifunction switch was removed and replaced by Dodge under warranty. The problem recurred in January of 2015. Mileage on the vehicle at that time was 35,242 (12,117 miles driven) since the first incident. The problem was once again the multifunction switch - part number 56049823ab. I was told by the service manager that this problem could not be covered under warranty since I had exceeded the 3 year warranty period. I had to pay $125.95 to have the multifunction switch removed and replaced (again). Everyone (including myself) knew when I took the vehicle in for repair exactly what the problem was. It appears that Dodge has a serious repetitive problem with this integral part. And when this part fails it represents a dangerous safety issue - one in which death and/or serious injury can and will occur.

Multifunction switch had a internal fault the dealer replaced it on 12/30/09 the switch had to be replaced 2 weeks later because the switch replacement switch was bad. In 2010 after the truck out of warranty I had to replace it again. Now on 01/25/2012 the switch failed again which causes the turn signal to function incorrect ( left will turn on right, right will not work all or right will turn on left).

In my 2007 Dodge Dakota club cab 4X4, having stopped in a straight line, I activated the left turn signal. Inside, it blinked rapidly as if to indicate a blown bulb. In May 2010, I replaced the right turn signal bulb and believed the left had now blown. After making the turn, I activated the signal again but it blinked "normally". the problem has not replicated itself since.

Turn signal intermittently fails. Moving turn signal lever for a left turn, results in flashing of right front and rear indicator lamps. Very dangerous as approaching traffic makes incorrect assumption about which direction the vehicle is planning to turn. Since intermittent, one never knows which indication (left or right) will result. Found internet blogs where this same problem has been documented.
