TAKATA RECALL I TOOK THIS TRUCK IN FOR THE RECALL, LEFT THE DEALER AND THE STEERING LOCKED UP AS I TURNED ONTO A ROAD, I HAD TO JERK IT VERY HARD TO RELEASE THE WHEEL AND WHEN IT DID RELEASE IT MADE A SNAPPING SOUND FROM THE STEERING COLUMN IN THE AREA WHERE THE AIRBAG SITS. WENT BACK AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND FIVE MINUTES LATER I WAS TOLD MY STEERING SHAFT COUPLERS ARE BAD. I NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE BEFORE, BUT THEY SAY I'M WRONG AS OF NOW WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE.

POWER TRAIN
ON MY 2007 DODGE DAKOTA, VEHICLE RANDOMLY ENGAGES 4WD MODE WITHOUT WARNING, CAUSING MOMENTARY LOSS OF CONTROL. MY VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS TWICE SO FAR, ONCE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IN ADDITION, WHEN VEHICLE ENTERS 4WD DRIVE MODE, TIGHT STEERING AND OTHER HANDLING LIMITATIONS EXIST, CAUSING FURTHER POSSIBILITY OF LOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE SEVERAL SIMILAR COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS DEFECT ON THE NHTSA SITE, AS WELL AS SEARCHING GOOGLE WILL INDICATE HUNDREDS OF DODGE OWNERS WITH SIMILAR EXPERIENCES. THIS DEFECT IS A CRITICAL SAFETY CONCERN.
