VISIBILITY/WIPER

WIPER BLADE ELECTRONICS WILL STOP INTERMITTENTLY CAUSING LOSS OF VISIBILITY ESPECIALLY IN SEVERE WEATHER CONDITIONS. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES DESPITE USE OF APPROPRIATE DE-ICER WINTER FORMULA WIPER FLUID, REPLACEMENT OF THE WIPER MOTOR, AND MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH ASSEMBLY. THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE OVERLOAD OF THE CIRCUIT WHEN THERE IS MILD TO MODERATE AMOUNT OF ICE ON THE WINDSHIELD OR WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS READJUSTED DOWNWARD CAUSING THE WIRING HARNESS TO COME LOOSE. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED MAJOR ACCIDENTS AT LEAST 2 AND MAYBE EVEN 3 TIMES DUE TO THIS ISSUE. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT AT SLOW SPEED OF ABOUT 20 MPH DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER AND I WAS FORCED TO STOP WHEN THE WIPERS WOULD STOP WORKING.

VISIBILITY

MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES OF MODE DOOR/BLEND DOOR/ RECIRCULATION DOOR FAILURE. DIVERTS AIR TO FLOOR AND WILL NOT ALLOW FOR DEFROSTING/ DE-ICING OF WINDSHIELD. WINSHIELD WILL ACCUMULATE ICE AND CAUSE WIPERS TO CEASE FUNCTION OR FOG WITHOUT ABILITY TO REMOVE OR WITHOUT WARNING. CHRYSLER CORPORATION HAS A "REVISED BLEND DOOR" DESIGN THAT ADDRESSES THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, RETROFIT IS NOTY COVERED BY RECALL AND EARLY REPLACEMENTS SIS NOT UTILIZED REVISED DOOR DESIGN. DOOR FOR RECIRCULATION WILL FALL OFF AND OBSTRUCT FAN MOTOR. IF FAN MOTOR IS ON, OBSTRUCTION CAN CAUSE FAN OVERHEAT AND POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL FIRE/ OR MELTING OF HOUSING CAUSING SMOKE AND NOXIOUS FUMES. MODE DOOR FAILURE PROHIBITS USE OF DEFROST/ DEFOG OF WINDSHIEL AND CAN HAPPEN WITHOUT WARNING.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET JUST ABOUT TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN SO I TURNED ON MY LEFT SIGNAL WHEN I DID THAT MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING PLUS WITH MY LEFT SIGNAL ON IT WASN'T BLINKING TO THE LEFT IT WAS BLINKING TO THE RIGHT. SO WITHOUT MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS I HAD TO PULLOVER BECAUSE I COULDN'T SEE. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF THEN BACK ON AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED WORKING AGAIN. BUT EVERYTIME I USE MY LEFT SIGNAL MY RIGHT ONE BLINKS AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOP WORKING.

VISIBILITY

WHEN USING THE TURN INDICATOR, EITHER THE OPPOSITE INDICATOR COMES ON, OR NEITHER WORK. ALSO, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS DON'T WORK PROPERLY. THEY SEEM TO OPERATE RANDOMLY (E.G., WORK AT HIGH SPEED WITH THE SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION, OR DON'T WORK AT ALL WITH THE SWITCH IN ANY POSITION). IT APPEARS TO ME THAT THE MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH IS DEFECTIVE. THIS PROBLEM NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (60 MPH)DURING A RAINSTORM AND THE WIPERS WOULDN'T OPERATE. I HAD TO DRIVE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND SHUT OFF THE IGNITION SWITCH TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVER MAY HAVE HAD MORE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES.

THE FLAP THAT CONTROLS FRESH AIR VS. RE-CIRCULATED AIR BREAKS AND FALLS OFF. EVEN IF REPLACED IT QUICKLY BREAKS AGAIN. DODGE CHARGES $800 TO FIX THIS CHEAP PLASTIC PART ONLY FOR IT TO QUICKLY BREAK AGAIN. I FOUND THE PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE NUMEROUS REPORTS FOUND ON THE WEB ABOUT DODGE AC LOW AIR FLOW. WHEN BROKE, THE FLAP FALLS ON TOP OF THE FAN MOTOR AND BLOCKS AIR CIRCULATION. MY CHILDREN HAVE BAD ALLERGIES AND I HAVE NO WAY OF TURNING OFF THE OUTSIDE AIR BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE DESIGN IN THE FLAP. AFTER IT BREAKS IT BLOCKS THE AIR FLOW OF THE FAN MOTOR. I HAVE 3 CO-WORKERS WITH THE SAME MODEL VEHICLE. THEY HAVE ALL SINCE CHECKED THEIR FRESH AIR/RE-CIRCULATE AIR FLAPS AND THEY WERE ALL BROKE. THIS OBVIOUSLY IS A DESIGN FLAW NOT BEING ACKNOWLEDGED BY DODGE. IT'S HAZARDOUS TO MY CHILDREN HEALTH (AND MINE) NOT BEING ABLE TO TURN OFF THE OUTSIDE AIR WHEN TRAVELING THROUGH AREAS WITH BAD AIR OUTSIDE, EXHAUST FUMES FROM OTHER CARS, ETC.... THANK YOU FOR LOOKING INTO THIS MATTER.

SEVERAL DAYS AGO MY TURN-SIGNAL, WINDSHIELD WIPER SWITCH STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AT TIMES. FOR EXAMPLE I WOULD ACTIVATE THE SIGNAL SWITCH FOR A LEFT TURN AND THE RIGHT TURN INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD GO ON. OR, WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO WORK OR DID NOT PERFORM THE SELECTED FUNCTION. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR OBVIOUS REASONS AND BECAUSE THIS IS THE SECOND SWITCH I HAD IN THIS TRUCK. A YEAR OR SO AGO I HAD THE SWITCH REPLACED BY DODGE FOR THE SAME COMPLAINT AND NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN.

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER

ERRATIC WINDSHIELD WIPER PERFORMANCE FOLLOWED BY COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE WIPERS. WIPERS STALLED IN THE CENTER OF THE WINDSHIELD IN A THUNDERSTORM WHILE TOWING A 24,000 LB TRAILER ON INTERSTATE 65 WITH SEMI TRUCK/TRAILERS ON 3 SIDES. THIS WAS THE 2ND INCIDENT OF WIPER FAILURE. THE FIRST FAILURE OCCURRED ABOUT 6 MONTHS EARLIER. AFTER LEAVING THE TRUCK PARKED OVERNITE, THE WIPER OPERATION RETURNED TO NORMAL. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER AFTER BOTH OCCURRENCES. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE WIPERS AFTER THE 1ST OCCURRENCE WHILE THE TRUCK WAS UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER THE 2ND OCCURRENCE I WAS TOLD THAT THE TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM)HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND SINCE THE TRUCK WAS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT. I HAVE NOT YET REPLACED THE TIPM. DURING BOTH WIPER FAILURES, THE DRIVING SITUATION WAS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE ROAD SPRAY COVERED THE WINDSHIELD AND SEVERELY CUT DOWN VISIBILITY. *TR PHONE INTERVIEW UPDATE (10/01/09): OWNER TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIRS AFTER TIPM (TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE )WAS DIAGNOSED TO BE THE CAUSE OF THE WIPER FAILURE MODE. OWNER STATES THAT THE TIPM WAS REPLACED AND HAD MULTIPLE FAILURE MODES OCCUR INCLUDING : INOPERABLE WIPERS, FLIPPED TURN SIGNALS, AND INOPERABLE CRUISE CONTROL. THE OWNER TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK FOR REPAIRS AND THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITHC WAS REPLACED. OWNER STATES NO FURTHER PROBLEMS.
