Ram 1500 Laramie Slt

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,000 miles

smelled electrical burn, immediately pulled over and was towed home. Found the switch for the head lights had a loose prong and was ready to start a fire. Replaced but the steering wheel has to stay in a certain position and the lever on the column not touched or the lights go out!
