A DODGE DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME THAT THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL (ORC) MODULE HAS SUDDENLY FAILED AND IS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. AFTER INVESTIGATING IN ONLINE FORUMS AND DISCUSSIONS WITH THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP THERE APPEARS TO BE A PATTERN OF FAILURES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ORC UNIT IN SEVERAL DODGE / CHRYSLER MODELS. THE COST TO REPAIR IS OVER $500 ($344 + LABOR) AND THE PART IS VERY HARD TO COME BY FOR OLDER VEHICLES.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
MY 2004 DODGE RAM 2500 EXHIBITS THE CLASSIC DEFECTIVE STEERING LINKAGE ISSUES COMMON TO DODGE RAMS OF THIS YEAR AND RESULTS IN THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WHEN DRIVING OVER A BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT BECOMES NEARLY UNCONTROLLABLE UNTIL I SLOW TO BELOW 30 MPH. THE DEALERSHIP ALWAYS CLAIMS THAT THEY EITHER "CANNOT DUPLICATE" THE ISSUE, OR THAT THEY COULDN'T FIX IT IF THEY COULD DUPLICATE IT ANYWAY. I BOUGHT THE DODGE RAM USED IN 2013 AND HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE EVER SINCE. I DID NOT KNOW THAT THIS WAS A COMMON DODGE RAM PROBLEM, THAT HAS BEEN IGNORED BY CHRYSLER, OR I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THE TRUCK.

STEERING, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY DOING 65 MPH, I ACCIDENTALLY BUMPED MY IGNITION WITH MY KNEE AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. I DID NOTIFY DODGE OF THIS VIA THEIR WEBSITE BUT DID NOT GET A RESPONSE. I DRIVE A 2012 RAM 2500 AND NOTICED IT WAS NOT ON THE LIST FOR THE IGNITION RECALL. I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO, I WOULD HATE FOR THERE TO BE A FATALITY BECAUSE OF THIS OVERSIGHT.

SUSPENSION
VEHICLE IS VERY LOSE FEELS LIKE IT WOULD VERY EASILY SWAY OUT OF CONTROL. THE VEHICLE FALLS UNDER THE MANUFACTURED DATE FOR RECALLS OF STEERING COLUMN AND REAR AXLE ISSUES BUT ACCORDING TO MY DEALER AND CHRYSLER'S WEBSITE MY VIN IS NOT LISTED. FORGIVE ME IF I DON'T TRUST THEM. HOW DO I GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS BECAUSE THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY SUSPENSION AND THERE ARE MANY MORE POSTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE AT HIGHER SPEEDS.

STEERING
THIS VEHICLE'S STEERING BEGAN RESONANT OSCILLATION AFTER HITTING A POTHOLE IN THE PAVEMENT. IN ORDER TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, I HAD TO SLOW TO AROUND 30 MPH BEFORE THE OSCILLATION SUBSIDED. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE DODGE DEALERSHIP'S SHOP FOR SEVEN MONTHS IN THE LAST TWO YEARS AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. MOST OF THE FRONT END PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, AND THE ISSUE PERSISTS.
