I had two Chrysler products, (one minivan and one ram pickup), with the same concern within a matter of weeks. When turning on the left turn signal, the outside right turn signal flashes. I own a service repair shop and checked my "identifix" data base and see this is a common issue with Chrysler products. The multifunction switch is bad causing this concern.

The contact owns a 2005 Chrysler town and country. The turn signals failed to operate properly. She could not remember the approximate speed she was traveling when the failure originally occurred. She would engage the turn signals and they either would not turn on or the turn signal for the opposite direction would turn on. The failure began as an intermittent failure but eventually the turn signals stopped working permanently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer which recently lost its certification where it was repaired. Approximately 11 months later the failure began to recur. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where she was informed that there was a failure in the switch which engaged the turn signals. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 45,000 and the current mileage was 72,000. The VIN was unavailable.
When I go to make a right turn my left signal light flashes but the right one does not and when I try to turn on my left signal nothing happens.

I was driving and about to make a right hand turn. I turned on my right turn signal but my left turn signal came on instead. This resulted in the car behind me not reeling I was turning right and they rear ended me. I tested both turn signals and my left signal did not work at all and my right one would blink the left light.
A one week ago, my left turn signal would not shut off after making a left turn. I have to shut it off manually. Within a couple of days it started making a clicking noise before I could get it in to be fixed. Tonight I was driving the car, making a left turn and as the steering wheel was returning to the straight position (before the wheels were straight) it locked in a left turn position and would not release. The car kept turning to the left and I had to force the steering wheel to the right. Finally after jerking the steering wheel to the right it released and went back to a straight position. Something in the turn signal locked it up and would not allow the steering wheel to fully release after making a left turn. After that the right turn signal will not shut off. Luckily nobody was in the lane to my left or else I could have hit them. I am now afraid to drive the car until I get it fixed.

: the contact stated while driving 40 mph, there was a small amount of play in the steering wheel. Then, during a left turn, the vehicle lost power assist steering. This was followed by the turn signal switch not returning to the neutral position. The vehicle was not taken in for service. The consumer stated while making a left turn the wheel locked. The consumer stated the vehicle is currently at the repair shop. Updated 09/11/07.
The turn signal indicator in my 2001 Chrysler town and county started to fail. When I indicate that I wish to turn right the left turn signal comes on outside the vehicle. I consider that the component failing in this manner where the opposite turn signal comes on to be a serious safety issue. I spoke to the manufacturer (daimler Chrysler) about this issue and they said that the component was out of warranty.

Consumer was driving on the freeway while it was raining. When consumer changed lanes and used turn signal on driver's side the windshield wipers stopped. Consumer believed that she may have let the turn signal switch go back to the middle position and windshield wipers began to work again. Consumer had a recall on power steering fixed at the dealer, but did not fix the windshield wiper problem. Windshield wipers failed twice since recall repairs were done. Consumer said this happened all three times that she was on the freeway. Doesn't seem to happen when not using the turn signal.

Power locks. . . . Locks you in, cannot open the doors. Locks you out, cannot open the doors. Does not lock all the doors at once, usually leaves passenger side sliding door unlocked. Have had system replaced, is now worse than original. Also, sets off alarm unnecessarily. . . . . . . - windshield wipers come one intermittently when turning corner, turning on turning signals, or without any justification. Very startling, and extremely distracting when driving and the wipers just come on. Thank you for your work.

Multi funcition switch replaced several times, causing wipers to go on and off intermittently.
Multifuntion switch failed causing the wipers to come on when turning the steering wheel or activating the turn signals. Nlm.
Windshield wipers don't cut off even with the key out of the ignition. Dealer says it's the multi-function switch.
