2007 Dodge RAM 1500 visibility complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 24 of 24, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My truck sat out during the winter dec thru april, in april when I returned to michigan the wiper motor sounded different as it were straining. It still worked but made some noise. Today it flat out quit working, I cannot find any information regarding fuses which I would have expected to protect the motor.
When using the left turn signal the right signal sometimes flashes. Sometimes the left signal will flash for a few seconds, then the right signal will flash a few times. Failures are intermittent and inconsistent. Also, the wipers and washers operate intermittently, and the high beam switch works about 20% of the time, sometimes requiring a stop to actuate the switch repeatedly so as not to blind oncoming traffic.
The turn signals works sporadically I flip the signal left it will blink right and vice versa or they wont work at all at times also the hazard lights will not work. Along with these symptoms the windshield wipers will not work at the same times as the prior mentioned symptoms. I called the dealer to check vehicle recalls the service agent said there was not any recalls but this is a common complaint on the 2007 dodge ram it is a very dangerous situation as it was raining during the last episode the visibility was extremely low and I was unable to properly let the other motorist my intention to merge out of traffic.
Wipers have started to only function when they want to. Even when on they will sometimes turn off or pause or go faster. Intermittent does not work properly, seems to have a mind of there own.

Wiper motor fails at any speed turn signal flashes right for left or vice versa. Dangerous to driver and oncoming traffic.
When the blinker is turned on, the opposite side blinks, or none at all. The wiper doesn't wipe at all times. These are unsafe driving conditions.
The windshield wiper motor is failing on my 2007 dodge ram. There is a recall on the 2008 and 2009 models. It no longer operates on anything but intermediate, even when the knob is on high. This failure has caused a dangerous situation.
Wipers don't always work. I understand there is a recall investigation but I have not been notified. Vehicle is a 2007 dodge ram 1500 pick-up.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 1500. While driving at various speeds, the contact experiences difficulty opening the rear window. The handle is located behind the driver's side head rest. In addition, the accelerator pedal is too close to the brake pedal, which occasionally causes the contact to accelerate when he is actually trying to brake. On one occasion, he crashed into his home due to the pedals being so close together. No one was injured during the crash and the vehicle has not been diagnosed by the dealer. The current mileage was 2,990 and failure mileage was 500. Updated 07/29/08 *bf updated 07/29/08
Three times now in the last month the ds arm and blade has fallen off of my vehicle while driving - once when I was parked, once travel at 25 MPH, and the third time traveling 60 MPH. At no time was there snow or ice on my vehicle. This to me is a safety concern. If I am driving at 60-70 miles per hour on the expressway in the rain and the arm and blade falls off, I will be without a wiper arm and blade. There will be no way of stopping to look for this part. This is a safety concern to me. The dealership where we purchased the vehicle said that this happens quite frequently and isn't a problem. They said this probably has something to do with the cold weather. I know for a fact that these products go through extensive testing prior to vehicle launch. We would like the ds arm and blade totally replaced. There is probably something wrong with where the arm head casting connects to pivot assembly of the wiper module.
