2006 Ram 2500 the blend door has broken and I can no longer control where the air is directed. This is defently a safety issue when it comes to not bewing able to defrost the windows and should be a rcall.

2006 Dodge Ram 2500 heater will not switch to the defrost or the floor. Air only comes out the dash. Truck only has 40800 miles on it but Dodge refuses to fix it unless I pay for it. I consider it a safety issue. After reviewing this problem on-line I see that this is a problem for the Dodge line. They are not proud of their product. It has cost them a customer.

I was traveling through the January west coast winter storms. I am not sure if the failure happened during this time but it became very apparent there was something wrong within the cab air distribution system. There was cold damp air that was entering from behind the glove box and could not be turned off. It became increasingly harder to keep the windows from becoming fogged creating poor driver visibility and hazardous driving conditions. After reaching our destination and talking with others that have like vehicles they referred me to a common problem with the distribution doors. A few internet searches and a trip to a local garage and sure enough at lease one of my doors had broken off. At this time the issue has not been resolved. I have contacted Dodge and they indicated they were not aware of any problems. I requested written documentation for my records of my complaint that I felt this was unsafe and the level one contact told me was not authorized but would have a level two person contact me. The level two did contact me and told me to submit the request online and as of this date I have not got a response. I called on 2/8/2010 to see when I could expect the letter and they are now offering to have someone contact me to see what can be worked out. Still no answer as to when the response will come.

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 megacab 4x4. The contact stated that the window began to crack in 13 degree weather. While rolling up the window, he noticed an inch long crack in the window. The dealer was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The contact ordered a new window for the vehicle. He feels that the vehicle is unsafe to drive because it could shatter while driving. The current and failure mileages were 57,000.
