My truck has a white panel that's fading out, turning black. The instrument panel is getting hard to read. Pretty soon I won't be able to see how fast I'm going, how much gas I have, any important gauge's that I need to be able to see at night.
I was going 60mph when the vehicle just went out of control for no unknown reason. I slide across the median and hit a loaded tractor/trailer head-on. It took the jaws of life to get me out of the truck. I suffered 8 broken ribs, a broken leg, broken jaw and a laceration under my chin. This is a very dangerous vehicle that should be taken off the road before it causes loss of life. It almost cost me my life and after 3 months I am still recuperating from the result of this accident.
Empezo a perder el control DE la parte trasera desde el lado derecho hasta chocar con la valla del centro del expreso y volcarme .
Se barrio hasta chocar con la valla y volcarse , corrio un pequeño tramo DE capota.
The blower motor resistor connector on the 2001 Dodge Dakota's are overheating and melting the connectors, this is causing a potential fire hazard. If you do a search online you will see hundreds of people talking about this problem. All the auto parts stores have these in stock because it is a known problem. I have had to replace my blower motor resistor 4 times in the last 3 years and wiring 2 times because of this problem. Dodge even seems to know about this problem with the blower motor maybe drawing to many amps, but when you contact them they just say the vehicle is out of warranty.
