The heater in the truck will not throw out heat in vents on top of dash and only put heat out on drivers side in other vents for floor or panel. So there is no heat coming out of defroster vents. Will not defrost front windshield. Cannot see out of windshield cannot safely drive vehicle. This is a wide spread problem with these trucks.

Vehicles wipers don't work correctly. They go on and off randomly. I have witnessed them turning on while the vehicle was parked and turned completely off with no key in the ignition. While driving the wipers won't go on when I need them most.

All lights (headlights, taillights, etc.) come on while vehicle turned off and turn off while vehicle is running. Also, windshield wipers and washers run all the time and can not be turned off. Drains battery while not running, then will not start. Factory trained mechanic says it is a "bad tipm" (totally integrated power module), and the dealership can not order a new tipm as Dodge does not make these anymore (vehicle is 12 years old). My vehicle is practically useless and now valueless, as I can not get needed parts to repair. My experience has been that aftermarket parts (including fan clutch for this vehicle) does not work well and end up needing replacement almost as soon as repairs are done. This really sucks that an american auto manufacturer can fail to make parts available for 12 year old vehicles. I guess they need to sell a new one that bad! not another Dodge, for sure

Wipers work fine in high or low position but are sporadic and or stop completely in the intermittent position.

- Redding, CA, USA

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500. While driving approximately 45 mph and signaling a right turn, the turn signal failed to engage without warning. The contact also stated that while signaling to make a right turn, the left turn signal activated without warning. The contact pulled the vehicle over and also discovered that the passenger side tail light had blown out. The failure recurred on several occasions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the windshield wiper stalk was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 73,000.

Windshield wipers cycle randomly. Driving at freeway speeds with the wipers operating in the on position (not the delay setting) they will completely stop operating and begin again. Cycling the switch to the off position will not turn them off. Turning the switch to the delay position will not activate. Only working in the on and high setting, randomly. Also, while standing outside if the truck with keys in hand (vehicle engine off, no keys in ignition), pushed the remote key fob to unlock the doors and the wipers cycled 1 time. Truck was not running, no persons in the vehicle. When they do operate in the on/low setting, turning them off will randomly stop them in drivers line of sight. This is a safety issue.

- Everett, WA, USA

Wiper system refused to operate. Warmed up the vehicle for an hour and a half, still no operation. Second time this happened. Thought maybe it was frozen since very cold weather, but the wipers didn't even try to move, they could be manually moved a bit.

This vehicles wipers will start or stop at any given time when you have them on I have also had them to whip with the switch turned off this has been a problem for a few years intermittently has never worked correctly very unsafe auto to drive thank you.

Wipers have a mind of their own. They will activate randomly when locking/unlocking the vehicle with the remote. When attempting to use intermittent settings, the wipers may or may not move. If they move, they may move once or multiple times. If they do not move at all, switch has to be set to slow/fast continuous setting. Have replaced multi-function switch, forward control module, and wiper motor. The problem continues. There are many people who have this same issue and it is a safety hazard. There needs to be a manufacturer recall.

- Tomball, TX, USA

Windshield wiper works intermittently and will stop sporadically during the cycle. In delay mode the wipers may or may not operate and may delay then continuously wipe or just not work at all. Very dangerous while driving due to visibility and the need to keep looking down at the windshield wiper control. Researching the problem this is a common issue that appears Dodge hasn't resolved.

- Madison, AL, USA

When I turn on my windshield wipers to any intermittent position, they will work properly for 5-10 cycles then will cycle 4-5 times in a row without any delay between cycles. On a few occasions the wipers have stopped in the middle of the windshield and remain their until I am able to turn them off and move the control switch to the off/fast position several times. Very unsafe in winter in Washington.
