VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

Through conversations with a Dodge Certified Tech, this is ongoing and known issue with Dodge (RAM) trucks, dodge chargers etc. Curious as to why a safety recall has not been issued, with reports and complaints found online spanning back 2-3 years now. My car, after just 2 years of ownership, the windshield wipers have failed in operation. For 1 month, intermittent wiper functions were non-existent, 3 clicks would only get me "on all the time, slow speed", nothing else. As of yesterday 11/01/22, when I used turn signals to change lanes on highway, my wipers turned on to slow speed and would not shut off. (Turn signals and wipers on same lever, left side of steering column). I have had to pull the relay/fuse for wipers to get them to shut off. As I understand it, per NC state law, as part of safety inspection, windshield wipers have to be operational for it to be legal on the roadway. So now I am potentially operating a vehicle that should not be on the roadway. Dealership can't get me into a shop until 1 week or more out, no guarantee on parts due to manufacturing delays and backorders. Another note, my car insurance company refuses to allow me a rental vehicle, when I pay hundreds of dollars every year, with no filed claims. This issue should be looked into for a safety recall, with a number of reports being shown, and within some states, legally takes the vehicle off the road, unable to be driven. Thank you for your time and consideration.

STRUCTURE:BODY

Potential Consequences:

While driving at highway speed, 40-50mph during heavy rain; encountered a puddle, the plastic belly pan just forward of the rear axle acted as a scoop and took on water. This resulted in the belly pan bolt being ripped from the structure of the vehicle. The belly pan then folded under the car and was dragged. I had this fixed under warranty. During the next heavy rain, I again hit a puddle, the bolt was ripped from the structure again. Luckily both times I was able to slow to a stop. However I believe this presents a serious hazard at freeway speeds of +65mph, where the entire belly pan can disintegrate and fly off into traffic. This is a defect in design and does not hold up to normal wear. It presents a very significant problem. When looking at car forums, it appears this problem is wide spread and presents a very real risk of hurting someone.

When looking at car forums, it appears this problem is wide spread and presents a very real risk of hurting someone.
