Abs light and break light come on after rolling down the road there is a lot of people complaining about this I would like to know is this could be a recall on this
When I turn on my headlights the instrument cluster, panel, lights go out the turn signal arrows light up. At night this is very dangerous as you can not see how fast you are going and also if any of the warning lights were to come on you would not know because you can't see them as they do not light up. This is also a problem during the day because of the instrument lights are out. When I crank car the chimes do not always sound. I am getting shocked when I stop turn off car and get out and touch the door to close it.
Tl* the contact owns a 1999 dodge durango. While parked, the contact activated the headlights however, the flashers began to illuminate. The low and high beam headlights failed to function at any given time. The manufacturer issued a voluntary recall pertaining to the headlights. The VIN was not included in the recall defect. The vehicle had not been repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 193,000. The VIN was not available.
Signal lights stopped working. When I switch my signal lights on to make a turn they do not work. Sometimes if I play with the arm of the switch by wiggling it I can get the turn signal to work for a moment or two. But otherwise it does not work properly. It stopped functioning about a week ago. The switch worked fine up til then.

Abs light and brake light on dash stay lit. Had brakes checked, pads like new and working 1999 durango, why so many with this problem? Only 68k miles on vehicle.
In january of 05 had to have both upper and lower ball joints replaced, control arm, front brakes and new tires as a result of bad f/e suspension. Now today the speed sensor (and I am hoping that's it) has gone out on the transmission. I have had two window motor failures, a sudden drop in oil pressure causing the truck to stall and there is something wrong with the electrical system. There have been many complaints in regards to these failures and the dodge durango and although they have recalled other dodge trucks for these issues - they have yet to have recalled the 1999. I have contacted dodge since january of this year regarding this issue and they responded telling me that they hadn't had enough complaints to issue a recall. I find this hard to believe seeing all the complaints made to the federal safety agency and to consumer affairs in regards to this year and model. I also believe that the dodge dealer I bought this truck from (used) sold it to me knowing of these problems - although this I doubt I could ever prove. I am thankful that the front wheels stayed on as long as they did as I have read of the ball joint issue causing wheel separation. This could have been a deadly situation for my family (4 small children - we rely on this as our only transportation) and I hope that the problem is fixed but have serious doubts.
Was driving after dark last night and my headlights just stopped working (both of them) almost caused another car to hit me, because they could not see me. I pulled over and proceeded to check the fuses, etc and they were all fine and the high beams and parking lights worked, just not the headlights. Took the car to the place I bought it from and after 2 hours his mechanics figured out that it was the relay switch that had blown and had to be replaced.
