If the driver became ill had a medical emergency, passengers would be unable to get out of the vehicle. The electrical wires in the door harnesses have broken and caused the issue to occur.”

“For 2 years my truck has had issues with the lights on the dashboard turning on and off for no reason. Now the lamp out, ABS and brake light are on all the time.

I have brought it in on a few occasions to be fixed and was told they could not fix the problem because they do not know what's causing it. If driving the truck at night or on a rainy day, this could be very dangerous for obvious reasons. …”

I restarted the vehicle in park and shifted to reverse then again ahifting into drive and the engine stalled again. This happened three times in one week. Each time was after driving at least 15 miles so the vehicle was heated up. This could be a major issue especially while backing down my jet skis into the water. I have taken the vehicle into Dodge for warranty repair and after 2 days, they said they have yet to reproduce or diagnose the issue.”
