2003 Dakota quad cab. In cold temperatures below 15f the fluid sprayers will freeze. Causing low to zero visibility in winter weather driving. When truck is parked and warmed up for 10-15 mins fluid will spray for as long as you want, after you stop it pools up in the tips of the sprayers, and will freeze once you move again. The hose's are also not insulated to protect from the cold so they don't freeze as well. This can and will cause zero visibility, causing the drive to not be able to see and possibly getting into an accident.
The windshield wipers on my Dodge 2001 quad cab hits on the hood as the wipers go back and forth motion. This is leaving a wear mark in the metal on the hood from where it continously hits. I informed my dealer where I bought the vechicle and they laughed at me. The problem is still taking place since I bought the vechile in 2001.
