2007 DODGE RAM 1500 Exterior Lighting Problems

The air bag light is on and it has a recall the lights behind the gages went out and the engine has a knock at times

2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab 4WD - No interior lighting, No dashboard lighting. The interior lighting and dashboard illumination affects day and evening driving for different reasons. No ability to drive vehicle during evening hours or when there is no natural day lighting. Unable to see the speedometer, gas level indicator and temperature gauges. Exterior lights work, but inside the vehicle it is completely dark. There were no warning lamps or messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to discovery during evening hours due to dashboard not displaying or illuminating the warning lamps during day hours. So if something were to go wrong while driving during the day there is no way of knowing the issue and/or troubleshooting prior to failure. Replaced blown fuse in the Integrated Power Module - Cavity 35 - Mini fuse 15 Amp Blue - Description Cabin Compartment Node (CCN) Illumination. This course of action restored the interior lights and the dashboard lighting appeared to be working, however the warning lamps were displaying false information. For example, emergency brake light was on, but the emergency brake was not engaged. There is no way of knowing if the warning lamps are reporting accurate or inaccurate information. The vehicle was purchased used on 8/31/2021 - mileage 204,836. The information reported in this text above was not disclosed by the dealership. As of 9/1/2021 in process of having vehicle inspected by dealership to determine course of action. To date all communication has been verbal.

SPYDER AUTO (19395 E. WALNUT DRIVE NORTH CITY OF INDUSTRY CALIFORNIA) IS SELLING HEADLIGHTS THAT THEY CLAIM ARE DOT APPROVED BUT THE PAIR I RECEIVED ARE 'CROSS EYED' AND THERE IS NO LEFT TO RIGHT ADJUSTMENT AND THEY REFUSE TO WARRANTY THEM. I HAD ORDERED A DIFFERENT PAIR PREVIOUSLY FROM A DIFFERENT MANUFACTURER WHICH ALSO HAD THE SAME DEFECT AND IT APPEARS BOTH SETS OF HEADLIGHTS CAME FROM THE SAME FACTORY IN CHINA AND ARE USING THE SAME MOLDS AND ARE IMPORTING THEM AND ILLEGALLY CLAIMING THEY ARE DOT APPROVED. I'VE INCLUDED A PICTURE OF THE BEAM PATTERN.

TIPM LOW BEAMS ARE NOT WORKING CAUSED BY PLUG HAVEING NO POWER COMING OUT OF TIPM TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE ALMOST CAUSING ME TO HAVE A ACCIDENT FROM NOT SEEING THE ROAD I WAS DRIVEING ON .I HAVE LIGHTS ATM BYPASSED TIPM WITH A ON /OFF SWITCH BUT SHOULD REALLY BE REPLACED KINDA OF A BAD ENGINEERING ON MOPAR SIDE.AND VERY DANGEROUS.

WHEN USING MY TURN SIGNALS (MAINLY LEFT SIGNAL) THE OPPOSITE TURN SIGNAL COMES ON INDICATING I AM TURNING RIGHT INSTEAD OF LEFT. SEVERAL INSTANCES I HAVE COME CLOSE TO A NEAR ACCIDENT. THIS IS NOT A CONSISTENT PROBLEM, BUT VERY INTERMITTENT. RESEARCH THAT I HAVE DONE STATES THAT THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. VERY UNSAFE TO HAVE TURN SIGNALS WORKING IMPROPERLY. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS THAT I KNOW OF.

WHEN I TURN ON MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL, EITHER IT WONT TURN ON AT ALL, OR THE RIGHT SIDE TURN SIGNAL TURNS ON. ALSO MY HAZARD LIGHTS DOES NOT WORK, WHEN I TURN ON MY HAZARDS ONLY THE LEFT ARROW TURNS ON . NOT THE RIGHT. THIS IS A HAZARD SINCE IF I HAPPEN TO BE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AT NIGHT I NEED MY HAZARDS FOR OTHER CARS TO SEE MY VEHICLE AND NOT HIT ME. OR WHEN TURNING I NEED PEOPLE TO KNOW WHICH WAY I AM GOING. *TR

PLEASE SEE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE08059. THIS ACTION DID NOT INCLUDE ENOUGH OF THE VEHICLE POPULATION!! THE MODEL YEAR 2007 DODGE RAM 1500 VEHICLES ARE ALSO IMPACTED BY THIS ISSUE AS WELL AS THE 2006 MODEL WHICH IS LISTED ON ACTION PE08059. MANY ONLINE COMPLAINTS VERIFY THAT THE VEHICLE POPULATION IS GREATER THAN JUST 2006 MODELS. CHRYSLER MUST IMPLEMENT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON 2007 VEHICLES AS WELL. WHEN THE TURN SIGNAL IS USED, THE VEHICLE SIGNALS THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. THE PROBLEM RESULTS IN NEAR CRASH AS OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD EXPECT THE VEHICLE TO TURN OUT OF THEIR PATH BUT REALLY INTEND ON TURNING INTO THEIR PATH. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE APPROX. JULY 2011 AND SINCE I CAN REMEMBER, THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THE SAME THING. THE PROBLEM IS IN THE MULTI SWITCH( WINDSHIELD WIPERS, AND TURN SIGNALS). WHEN I FLIP THE TURN SIGNAL DOWN THE RIGHT BLINKER WILL COME ON. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME WHEN ENGAGING THAT SWITCH. IN THIS SAME SWITCH IS THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THIS IS ALSO AFFECTED SOMETIMES BY NOT ENGAGING THEM OR NOT RUNNING CORRECTLY. THIS HAS CAUSED ME MANY PROBLEMS AND AM WORRIED IT COULD RESULT IN A WRECK. *TR

AFTER REPLACING MULTIPLE BULBS FOR MY PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT AND CHANGING THE CONNECTOR SWITCH, I HAVE BEEN TOLD I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE MY TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) WHICH IS $800 + LABOR AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE TIPM IS THE FUSE BOX AND I'VE SEEN SEVERAL '06-'08 MODEL DODGE OWNERS ON DIFFERENT FORUMS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN THE TIPM GOES OUT, IT CAN CAUSE THE HEADLIGHTS, LOCKS, BLINKERS, TAIL LIGHTS, WIPERS INTERIOR LIGHTS, ETC TO NOT WORK. IN 2006, DODGE REPLACED THE FUSE BOX WITH A TIPM AND SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS FOR DODGE OWNERS. *TR

MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH MALFUNCTION ON 2007 DODGE RAN 1500. TURN SIGNAL SIGNALS WRONG DIRECTION ON OCCASION (BASED ON FIRST EXPERIENCE THIS GETS WORSE WITH TIME) AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE TURN SIGNAL ISSUE CAUSES A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD WHEN YOU INTEND TO TURN OR CHANGE LANES ONE DIRECTION AND YOUR TURN SIGNAL IS INDICATING THE OPPOSITE OF YOUR INTENTION. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER ISSUE CAUSES A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN THEY FAIL TO OPERATE IN THE RAIN. HAD THE SWITCH REPLACED IN 2008 OR 2009 AROUND 30K MILES AND IT IS NOW FAILING AGAIN AT 59,000 MILES. *TR

I QUESTIONED THE FRONT END WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND WAS TOLD IT AS JUST TIRES OUT OF BALANCE. WHEN I PICKED IT UP AND ASKED IF THE FRONT END LOOKED GOOD BECAUSE I NOTICED THE FRONT TIE ROD ENDS HAD A LOT OF PLAY AND I WAS CONCERNED WITH ISSUES DUE TO THAT. I WAS TOLD THE FRONT END WAS FINE NO PROBLEMS WITH IT. I LATER TOOK IT BACK AND HAD ALL THE FRONT STEERING COMPONENTS REPLACED. I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE AND HAD NO ALIGNMENT AND WAS TOLD THEY ONLY SET THE TOE. I HAD TO KEEP THE STEERING WHEEL A FULL HALF TURN TO THE LEFT TO GO STRAIGHT. I PAID FOR AN ALIGNMENT AND THE PRINTOUT SHOWED MY TOE WAS SET UNDER THE SPECIFICATIONS. I HAVE TIRED UNEVENLY WORN DUE TO BAD FRONT END COMPONENTS. I HAD TO HAVE THE FRONT HEAD LAMP REPLACED DUE TO CRACKING INSIDE THE LENS, A BACK SEAT THAT THE LATCH DID NOT WORK PROPERLY.
