2013 Ram 1500 Exterior lighting Problems

“Today while driving on the highway at 65 MPH, my instrument panel went completely black and speedometer went down to zero. My truck stayed running and driving, but I could not read the speedometer or gauges or operate any turn signals. This happened 5 times on my 45 minute trip. It was very scary as I was in the center lane in houston, tx on 610.”

“My headlights on 2013 dodge Ram 1500 laramie are getting a lot of moisture/condensation in both of them. I had them replaced by dealership but my new pair are doing the same. I have seen on other similar trucks like mine with same issue. This is causing my lights to look dimmer instead of brightening up the road. I have the projector style headlights.”

“The truck acts like it was restarted when im driving down road . The lights go out all the gages turn off and reset its not a good thing when u are driving at night. It has happened more then the one time on 01/09/2020 it has happened 3 times this month an be for that it would do it here and there. When I first purchased it the dealer had it every week for 3 months but it never did it for them but there should be some records of me having it in there. It would happen at different speeds anywhere from 30 MPH to 60 MPH”

“Bought the pickup in january 2016 one previous owner everything original the passenger side headlight connector pin needs tightened constantly because the low beam high beam loses connection and won't come on unless you pull headlight and tighten the connector pins. It happens at various times in various situations while driving it will also flicker on and off. Parklight works fine. I don't know actual date because it is so frequently so the date is an estimate. The speed varies also first time I was at 65 on freeway.”

“I have a dodge Ram 15000 crew cab laramie. Both tail lights are malfunctioning in the blinkers. When I turn the blinker on it blinks really fast and says the tail lights are bad and need to be replaced. The lights in the back are half out when this happens. It does not happen all the time. I did see there was a recall, but for my VIN there is not. So it appears all 2013s seem to be affected. I also have a ticking noise in my engine when I start the vehicle. It lessens as the car warms up. I noticed there was a recall in 2012 for bad exhaust manifolds. …”
