Erratic turn signal function. Turn on left blinker and the right signal started flashing on the dash and on the front and rear turn signals. I am almost sure it is the multifunction switch. This was the first time it happened on my truck. I found on a truck forum that this has happened several times and it was suggested that it needed to be reported here.

7 Turn Signal Switch problem of the 2006 Dodge Ram 3500

Failure Date: 12/25/2005

Bought the 3500 megacab cummins with the g56 6 speed manuel in Nov 2005 and by the way this was the 3rd cummins I've owned and the worst, great motor but not happy with manufacture this time. So I bought in Nov 05 and Dec. 25 started it up and check engine light stayed on, so I shut it off and called dealer next day. This was the start of it all. Every 3day this would happen and I had to drive 23 miles to dealer to have them plug it up to computer and still could not tell me what was wrong. This went on for 14 months ended up buying my own module to reset myself. During all this found the issue with vents and broken dampers in ductwork and started having problems with the power back window cable broke then new one[s] leaked, 3 of them and then the window stopper fell off so I have had 4 rear power windows installed. After all that at 68000 miles I lost 2,4 and 6th gear 80 miles away from home and had to limp it home holding shifter in 6th gear whole time, broken shift tower that wasnt cheap. Then I stared having problems with blowing white smoke on startup come to find I have a injector acting up and the dealer said the fix was a 120. 00 bottle of injector cleaner and dog the the hell out of it . At about 75000miles started having the turn signal switch problem turn left and the right signal flashed and the shake in the front end and have had 4 front end allignment and new set of tires now have 125000 mile still get the shake and past do to give up in this beast.
