 Description of the problemI had problems prior to april 2014 but i am just using a time frame when chrysler got involved. In 2013 and 2014 my dodge ram would have the cluster panel come on with air bag service needed first and then the remaining lights would come on to include engine light while simultaneously the windshield wipers would come on. When i took it in to the dealer they tried to repair the problem to include resetting the computer. Over time i would lose my power steering and power brakes. Fortunately i was going into a parking area when i lost the power brakes otherwise i'm sure i would have crashed since i did not expect the change. As of late the truck will not start or the radio won't go off. Chrysler has really done nothing to resolve this problem and maybe i will need to crash first before something is done or run over someone when i lose my brakes. This is a problem since i purchased the truck. The truck is dangerous to drive since i never know when the electronics will quit on me. Over the last 10 days the truck wouldn't start at all two (2) times and all the lights and windshield wipers have come on at least three (3) times. I have not lost my brakes lately, but that is just a matter of time. I want to make this public because i know i will be held responsible if something happens, and it will. I have never had a vehicle do this and i'm just afraid someone will be killed if i should lose my brakes and steering while on the highway. Chrysler can be proactive or reactive. I think that i have been paying for a truck that will ultimately kill someone. I've tried to contact nhtsa by phone but the only thing there is that you leave a message and hope they will call back. Since the problems iterated above seem to have increased it's probably time to park the truck.
