Complaint Summary

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Owner Narrative

ON MONDAY FEBRUARY 17, 2020 I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND WHILE AT THE STOP LIGHT MY TRUCK JUST CUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE KEY A FEW TIMES AND IT STARTED BACK UP. I THEN STOPPED BY WHATABURGER THAT SAME NIGHT AND IT DID IT AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TUESDAY AFTERNOON. TODAY WE WERE TOLD THAT IT IS THE WIRELESS IGNITION NODE (WIN) THAT IS BAD. I UNDERSTAND THERE TO BE AN EXISTING SAFETY RECALL FOR THIS EXACT WIN MODULE BUT IT DOES NOT COVER OUR 2012 DODGE RAM PICKUP. I AM REQUESTING THAT YOU ADD THIS VEHICLE TO THE SAFETY RECALL AND THAT IT BE COVERED BY THE DEALERSHIP. BASED ON RECALL R03/NHTSA 14V-373 IT IS A KNOWN FAULTY MODULE.
