UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASHBOARD ON THIS VEHICLE HAS BROKEN INTO MANY JAGGED PIECES. THIS WAS NOT CAUSED BY MYSELF OR BY THE VEHICLE'S AGE. IT WAS CAUSED BY THE USE OF FAULTY MATERIALS. IF I WERE TO GET INTO ACCIDENT, THESE JAGGED PIECES COULD EASILY BE PROJECTED INTO ME. I HAVE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER THREE TIMES ABOUT THIS AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX THEIR MISTAKE.

STEERING
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW YOU REQUIRE FIAT CHRYSLER TO RECALL AND BUY BACK VEHICLES THAT ARE UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I GET TO SELL MY PICKUP BACK TO THEM AT TRADE IN VALUE WHICH EVERYONE IN THE WORLD KNOWS IS A DEALERS WAY OF SCREWING THE OWNER BECAUSE THEY TURN AROUND AND LIST THE VEHICLE FOR AT LEAST $4000 MORE THAN WHAT THEY PAID FOR THE TRADE IN. SO I GET SOLD A LEMON AND IM GLAD YOU ARE STARTING TO PUNISH COMPANIES SO THAT THEY IN TURN START PRODUCING QUALITY VEHICLES AND PUTTING EFFORT INTO THEIR CARS BUT THEY ARE EVEN TURNING THIS FOR PROFIT. THEY FIX THE PARTS AND RESALE THE CAR FOR MORE THAN THEY PAID FOR IT. GREAT PLAN. WHY NOT USE PRIVATE PARTY RESALE VALUE SO THAT WE ACTUALLY GET WHAT THE CAR IS WORTH.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
A WEEK AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, MY WIFE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE STEERING NOT FEELING RIGHT. AS I CONTINUE TO USE THE VEHICLE I NOTICE SOME VIBRATION ON THE STEERING WHEEL, BUT DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT BEING A PROBLEM BECAUSE THIS IS OUR FIRST PICKUP TRUCK AND THE STEREOTYPE IS ALL PICKUP TRUCKS RIDE RUFF. NOW SOME TIME HAVE PAST AND A FEW THOUSAND MILES LATER THE STEERING VIBRATION IS GETTING WORSE AND NOW I'M STARTING TO SUSPECT SOMETHING IS WRONG. AS I WENT UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE TO CHECK THE FRONT SUSPENSION I NOTICE THE NEW TIRES WHICH CAME WITH THE VEHICLE WHEN PURCHASE WAS COMPLETELY WORN ON THE INSIDE THREADS AFTER 8K MILES. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE NET TO FIND OUT THAT A LOT OF USERS OF THIS VEHICLE ARE EXPERIENCING WHAT'S KNOWN AS THE (DEPTH WOBBLE). I FIRST CALLED DODGE MFG. AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY INFORM ME THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING TO A DEALER AND GAVE ME A CASE #. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. ALL THEY DID WAS A WHEEL ALIGNMENT WHICH THEY CHARGE ME AND SAID THEY WOULDN'T REPLACE THE TIRES. WELL THIS VEHICLE IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING! ONLY 40K MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND WE REALLY ARE NOT HAPPY CAMPERS!
