The left turn signal works when it wants and when I turn it on the right turn signal comes on. The wipers and the headlights are currently going out or coming on by themselves. I have an error on the airbags (which have had the drivers replaced and currently awaiting the passengers, plus the new recall on the hose to the air bags). This issue started at around 120k miles. The fuses have been checked and passed. The bulbs-replaced. The situation is getting worse as the dash and interior lights do not work. The night lights went out when I was driving one night and do not drive after dusk anymore. All of this happens driving. The turns do it whether I am making a turn or pulling out or even testing them parked.

While driving the outer tie rod failed and the vehicle was unusable, the dealer stated there was no warranty. The vehicle would have crashed if I had not been lucky and brought it to the side of the road quickly. Both tie rod ends were found to be defective as well as the sway bar mounts. In addition this vehicle has routinely had a turn signal problem, when you turn on the left signal the right signal illuminates about 25 percent of the time.

The "security light" on dash was flashing and when it is on the headlights go off and dash lights goes dark and turn signals/brake lights comes on. When security light is off the headlights goes on the dash lights are on and turn/brakes lights goes off. This security light ( on dash) will flash on and off every second or will go on solid - if on solid headlights, dash lights will be off - dome light on and turn/brake lights on. This will happen until vehicle is warmed up to 20 degrees ambient temp. The problem is with the "tcm module" on this vehicle. It does not effect the engine or drive train only the lights ! you can be driving when this happens ! people will thing you are an emergency vehicle or crazy ! this vehicle does not have a "chip" in the keys only a remote keyless entry that is separate from the ignition key. . . Updated 02-28-14 . The consumer stated the security came on and the headlights went off. The vehicle did not die, or misfire. Updated 04/01/14.

While driving car, turn signals stopped working, all fuses and relays and new turn signal have been replaced, and turn signals still not working, since this happened it still has not been working. Also at idle, car revs up to 2000 rpm, and drops back to normal idle, this problem happens at any speed or at idle. Car was tuned up, and no codes found. But still revs up at times.

Traveling through town at 20:30pm at approximately 35 mph when all of a sudden the headlights shut off completely. I was able to pull over to the side of the road, but then the headlights began flashing for 1 to 3 seconds but then would shut off for a few seconds and do it again. Then the interior dome light starts flashing and flickering. The turn signals, and brake lights work.

Applied left turn signal and noticed the right signal was blinking. I canceled signal and then reapplied and left signal functioned properly. Since initial occurrence the turn signals have gotten progressive worse. Application of the right turn signal turns on left one, application of the left turn signal turns on right one. Sometime neither signal operates. My truck has a tilt steering wheel and I have noticed that moving the steering wheel up or down - while driving - initially cleared the problem and allowed the correct signal to operate. But now the signals either do not work or malfunction most of the time no matter which position the steering wheel is in. Adjusting the steering wheel has little to no affect on if the signals will operate properly. As you may realize thinking your left / right turn signal is on and finding out the opposite one is actually blinking has caused some "interesting" traffic situations as well as a few near crashes until I realized what was happening.

My turn signals and windshield wipers do not work all the time. It occurs at random times and I can temporarily fix it by adjusting the steering column.

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Dakota. He stated that the windshield wipers would operate intermittently. While driving at speeds of less than 60 mph, in heavy rain conditions, the windshield wipers failed to operate. He also stated that the turn signals would fail intermittently. There were no recalls and no repairs were made, to date. The failure and current mileages were under 48,000. The VIN was not available.

While attempting to make a left hand turn with the directional signal activated, several vehicles attempted to pass on my left. To my dismay I discovered that the directional indicator was signaling a right turn while in the left activated position. This has happened several times. Dealer cannot reproduce problem, so no action is taken. The problem has progressed to now I can change the directional from left to right by raising or lowering the tilt steering wheel when the signal indicator is activated. Some times it just does not go on at all.

Wipers and turn signals stop working and then come back on when they get ready. Malfunctioning.

While driving at any speed, intermittently steering wheel locked up/ brakes failed, and turn signal was not working. Dealer had inspected vehicle 3 times; firs t time battery cable, second time dealer kept vehicle 1 day and could not duplicate the problem, and third time installed a monitor for ten days, and still couldn't correct the problem. (dealer stated this wa san electric issue.
