POWER TRAIN
I HAVE A RECALL #12V-474 ON MY 2009 DODGE RAM THAT STATES, " THE REAR AXLE PINION NUT MAY HAVE BEEN BUILT WITHOUT AN ADHESIVE PATCH ON THE PINION NUT THREADS. THE LACK OF THIS ADHESIVE PATCH COULD ALLOW THE REAR AXLE PINION NUT TO LOOSEN AND/OR THE REAR DRIVESHAFT TO SEPARATE FROM THE REAR AXLE. A LOOSE PINION NUT COULD CAUSE THE REAR AXLE TO SEIZE AND A SEPARATED DRIVESHAFT COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER. EITHER SITUATION COULD CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING". THE CHRYSLER RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER TOLD ME THAT I DO NOT QUALIFY FOR THE BUYBACK PROGRAM BECAUSE MY RECALL NUMBER DOES NOT MATCH ANY LISTED IN THE CONSENT ORDER ISSUED BY THE NHTSA. HOWEVER, THERE IS A RECALL # 13V-038 ON THE CONSENT ORDER THAT STATES, "CHRYSLER ANNOUNCED A RECALL OF 278,229 VEHICLES ON FEBRUARY 6, 2013, TO CORRECT A DEFECT THAT MAY CAUSE THE AXLE TO LOCK. AS A RESULT, THE DRIVER MAY LOSE STEERING POWER AND CRASH." MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THESE ARE TWO RECALLS ON THE SAME DEFICIENCY. ONE IS LISTED IN THE CONSENT ORDER AND THE OTHER (CONVENIENTLY FOR THEM) IS NOT. I BELIEVE THAT I SHOULD QUALIFY FOR THE BUYBACK PROGRAM. THE COMPANY IS SIMPLY TRYING TO DISMISS MY RECALL TO AVOID ADDING MY VEHICLE TO THE COUNTLESS THOUSANDS OF OTHER CLAIMS OF WHICH THEY ARE OBLIGATED TO BUY BACK.
