While driving my 2004 dodge Dakota all the gauges, including the speedometer and the tachometer stopped working. Everything went off although the truck was still running. I had headlights turn signals an emergency flashers nothing else. I don’t know how fast I was going how much fuel I had or if my engine was running hot nothing. This is something that could spook a driver to a point where he/she would be distracted of their surroundings. Possibly causing a serious crash and hurting or killing someone.

Unknown the four wheel drive was out when I purchased it I didn't realize until later that day when I drove it and tried to engage it. It no longer works and it is a safety hazard to even try and turn on it doesn't engage and makes a noise and catches in some sort of way I believe it may have affected the transmission as well. My safety and the safety of others could be at risk if I try and use the four wheel drive and it's needed for hazardous road conditions in my area like snow and ice

My vehicles drive shaft fell off while making a stop at a red light, the pinon nut had come loose. It was towed to a mechanic's shop, my dad came and reattached it. It still made a whirring sound, at first I was on the way to the mechanic for what I though was a pinon seal leak.

Shifter will move without key in ignition. Will role in any direction in any position but park. can remove key from ignition while running. while it's still running with key out can shift and drive. other times when I go to start engine the key won't turn. I have to hit the end of the key with the palm of one hand while the other turns it. replaced the ball joints the first of this year and vehicle only had 87000 miles at the time. changed brakes and had to have rotor turned. Driver side brake caliper plunger had multiple pieces break off getting stuck between break pad and remaining pieces of plunger casting the vehicle to pull left while driving. when applying the break it pull so hard it caused me to start going into another lane barely missing the side of another vehicle.

TL* the contact owns a 2004 dodge dakota. While the vehicle was parked, the rear passenger side window became dislodged from the vehicle, fell to the ground, and shattered. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and it was diagnosed that the window regulator failed. The regulator was replaced and the failure was remedied. The local dealer (rob lambdin's university dodge RAM in davie, fl) and the manufacturer were both notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact indicated that over the years, the failure occurred on four separate occasions on the front driver's side window, three times on the rear driver's side window, three times on the rear passenger side window, and three times on the front passenger side window. The failure mileage was 10,000.

The steering IS very hard to turn either left or right at most times. feels as if the power steering has failed, but had it inspected by mechanic and says power steering pump and belts are fine. this difficulty in steering IS also accompanied by a grinding type of noise in the steering column behind the steeing wheel. it has become more than just an occasional annoyance but rather a more permanent safety issue since my wife IS no longer able to use the truck because of the difficulty with the steering. Please advise on what may be the cause and if the manufacturer IS aware of similar problems with other dakota pick ups and if they have issued a recall in the past to remedy the problem. I am hoping to have this resolved quickly since I fear it may only lead to some tragic or catastrophic result. thank you

The driver headlight quit working. I went to the store to replace it thinking it had burnt out. When I replaced the light it did not work still and the old headlight still had both filaments proving it was still good. I took the truck to the dealership after both headlights quit working on me when I was out at night driving less than a 10TH of a mile from home. I managed to not get in an accident. The dealership told me that the ctm and head light switch were bad however the ctm was a "obsolete" part and they were unable to get me one. After they released my truck back to me to drive as I please, I was able to purchase an older ctm from a 2003 4X4 automatic dakota 4.7L. Now my lights work and I have a "guarantee" from the ebay seller that it will work for 6 months. I have a seriously dangerous vehicle and I can not trust my headlights will not go out at any time so I can not drive it at night in good confidence or moral conscience. the dealership lilithia dodge of roseburg oregon has record of my truck being in their possession for multiple days before releasing it back into my possession without doing anything but a diagnostics test.

The heater blower resistor keeps burning up. I have replaced the resistor various times and it keeps burning up. I replaced the blower motor and the resistor keeps burning up. I had the vehicle checked for an electrical short circuit and it has none. The wiring to the resistor also burns up. I checked the internet and there are numerous reports and complaints of the same problem with many owners of the same type of vehicle. In one of the cases the resistor cause a fire inside the vehicle and the vehicle burned down. This problem has been occurring on these vehicles for a long time and it hadn't been reported to the manufacturer. I am afraid that someday the vehicle will catch on fire because of this issue. I keep on replacing the resistor and the harness every time it burns and I've also replaced the blower motor. I can't seem to get answer from anyone from dodge or chrysler on this problem. At the time that the resistor burned down the vehicle was running on the city streets at 30 mph. It has happened various times on the same running senario.

Driving on a rainy night and headlights and wipers quit working all at once. central timer module failed and shut the lights and wipers off as well as interior lights and door locks. almost didn't get vehicle stopped without wrecking. left vehicle and came back during daylight and drove to repair shop. Where located the issue was a failed central timer module. contacted dodge and said its out of warranty? its not about warranty or not it could have the potential for a fatality. still have the old ctm if anyone IS interested in looking into the matter. why would headlights be ran through a module like this just asking for trouble.
- Air bags
Air bag light came on took it to dealer they said it was clock spring went bad ,i had it replaced with new one . I had to brake fast to avoid hitting and air bag came on again. these things cost 100.00 what IS up with that?

I started my vehicle and could not get my headlights to turn on. All connections and bulbs were checked by a mechanic and the problem has been traced to the ctm (central timing module). These units are on nationwide back order. this IS a serious safety issue and a serious replacement issue if people are losing their headlights and the part IS on an unknown back order situation.

Issue with the steering, appeared to be a problem with the pump. occurred at about 50K miles, 6 yrs. while driving the steering would get hard like the pump had failed, and then without warning, would return to the power assist and over steer due to the pressure I was already exerting. this took place at all speeds and under city and highway conditions. very disconcerting. after about a week of this I took it to the dealer. they determined it was a failing fluid control valve in the power steering pump and replaced it. it was covered under the extended warranty I had purchased but would have cost over $1500.

Smell of burnt wire/plastic. Blower control switch would not work (blower motor would not run). Blower motor resistor and pigtail connection were melted and fused together. This was in 2010, it IS now 2015 and I just had the seventh resistor put in with the fifth pigtail. The time before this last nightmare, I also had the blower motor replaced in case it was the cause of the resistor and pigtail connection issues.

I bought my dodge dakota brand new from a dealer. I started to have problems with it almost immediately after purchase. I'll briefly list these failures. While driving in very cold weather (winter). I was driving with the heater on, a large volume of engine coolant came pouring out of the dashboard heater vents. This was repaired by the dealer. Within that same year the fuel gauge and check engine light would come on whenever the gas tank became half empty. At this point the fuel gauge would drop to zero fuel, corrects when gas cap IS tightened or fuel IS added. Plastic piece broke off in transmission at ~ 52,000 miles, I had it replaced and now have a crack in exhaust manifold which caused thermostat failure, water pump failure and leaking of all of the engine coolant. Unable to weld the manifold and mechanic had to install heat shield to prevent all of this from happening again. Now when I start the vehicle IS sounds like it might explode! This horrendous noise softens after a few minutes. I don't run the heater anymore as I smell a very strong odor of exhaust fumes when heater fan IS on. Vehicle occasionally shuts off when idling at ~500rpm.

Intermittent steering. Sometimes when turning left or right, steering will not return to center . Now this does not happen all the time. Sometimes it will happen then after driving awhile it will clear up. But this has been an ongoing problem. Checked power steering fluid,air pressure. Looked at other forums for this common problem. Consensus IS the steering rack and/or the intermediate shaft. Went and had steering rack and lower shaft replaced and it cured the problem about 97 percent. dodge should have a recall for safety reasons as this could involve fatalities . *tr

Got in vehicle and started to drive when I noticed making a turn the steering wheel would not return to center. The steering was real heavy like the power steering was failing. Checked power steering fluid-it was okay,tire pressure was ok. As I continued to drive the steering got better. Since that incident the problem with the steering comes and goes. I went on the web and found out how many more 2004 dodge dakota truck owners are having the same problem. The steering problem seems to be in the intermediate shaft and/or the steering rack. There should be a recall for this safety problem or a class action. Also the 2004 dakota ball joints went out at 60000 miles at my expense. There was a recall for 2003 dakota ball joints being bad but not 2004. I had bought a 1993 dakota brand new and bought the 2004 dakota brand new but I might have to reconsider going to another make if the steering does not get remedied by dodge. *tr
