ENGINE
2011 RAM 2500 WITH 5.7 HEMI MOTOR EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS BREAK ALLOWING EXHAUST MANIFOLDS TO BECOME LOSE FROM ENGINE, ALLOWING HOT EXHAUST FUMES TO ESCAPE EXHAUST SYSTEM AND ENTER PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, WHILE BEING DRIVEN, CAUSING POSSIBLE CARBON MONOXIDE INHALATION AND DEATH. THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAK WILL ALSO CAUSE THE VERY REAL POTENTIAL OF A DEADLY FIRE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
I HAVE OPTED FOR THE BUYOUT OPTION AND THE WAY THIS HAS BEEN HANDLED IS UNACCEPTABLE. I WAS EMAILED ON OCTOBER 26 WITH A BUYBACK OFFER. I ACCEPTED, AND FAXED THE PAPERWORK TO THEM THE NEXT DAY. NO ONE HAS EVER CALLED ME BACK. I CALLED THE IMPARTIAL SERVICES PHONE NUMBER AND ASKED FOR AN UPDATE. THEY COULD NOT TELL ME WHEN THIS PROCESS WOULD BE FINALIZED. IN MY OPINION, I WOULD THINK THAT I COULD BE INFORMED OF WHATS GOING ON THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS, AND THE BUYBACK IS TAKING WAY TO LONG. I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE RECALLS THAT WERE NOT REPAIRED. THIS LEAVES ME WITHOUT A VEHICLE UNTIL THIS PROCESS IS FINALIZED.
