STEERING, SUSPENSION
DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH HIT A BUMP ON INTERSTATE AND TRUCK SHOOK VIOLENTLY AND ALMOST HIT CONCRETE WALL. HAD TRACK BAR BUSHINGS REPLACED THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE FIX JUST TO HAVE THE SAME THING HAPPEN AGAIN TWO WEEKS LATER TAKING ME OFF THE INTERSTATE ONCE AGAIN. NOT SURE WHAT TO HAVE DONE NEXT BEFORE IT KILLS ME OR SOMEONE ELSE!

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL & NOTICE STATED THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. JUST SPOKE WITH DODGE AND PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND WILL NOT BE FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 3 MONTHS. THATS 6 MONTHS OF A "TIME-BOMB"! NO ONE KNOWS WHEN A ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN AND MY FAMILY NOW REFUSES TO RIDE IN THE VEHICLE. MY WIFE IS BEYOND WORRIED IF I DRIVE THE TRUCK SO IT NOW STAYS PARKED. I HAVE A TRUCK THAT I CAN NO LONGER USE BECAUSE OF A DANGEROUS SITUATION CAUSE BY A MANUFACTURER CHRYSLER FCA AND THEY DONT NOR CAN GET ANY PARTS. BUT IM PAYING MONTHLY FOR THE TRUCK THAT I CANNOT USE.

STEERING
WE BOUGHT THE TRUCK OUT OF STATE FROM THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN BONHAM TX AND THEY CLAIMED IT WAS A LOW MILEAGE TRUCK, WITH NO ISSUES. IT HAD BEEN PURCHASED NEW FROM THEM, ALL SERVICES DONE AND THEN TRADED-IN FOR A NEW TRUCK. WE ASKED TO HAVE AN OUTSIDE INSPECTOR CHECK IT OUT BUT WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE ONE FROM THE SMALL TOWN AREA WITHIN THE ALLOTTED TIME THEY WANTED US TO PICK IT UP. WHEN WE WENT TO GET THE TRUCK, IT WENT FOR A SHORT TEXT RIDE AND THEN COMPLETED PAPERWORK AND RUSHED OUT THE DOOR. WE HAD ASSUMED THAT THE DEALER DID A COMPLETE OVERALL INSPECTION AND REPAIR OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK. ON OUR WAY BACK TO CA THE TRUCK WATER PUMP HAD BROKE CAUSING THE SERPENTINE BELT TO FALL OFF AND LOOSE STEERING ALMOST CAUSING THE TRUCK TO WRECK. WE TOWED IT TO A REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THEY FIXED THE PUMP AND TOLD US THAT THERE MAY ALSO BE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. SO THE NEXT DAY WE WENT TO THE CLOSEST CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. THEY OK'ED THE TRANS AND WE PURCHASED AN CHRYSLER WARRANTY (BECAUSE OF THE LOW MILES & YEAR) SINCE WE HAD BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALER (IN TX) THE TRUCK WAS ELIGIBLE FOR 48K/4 YRS COVERAGE. A FEW DAYS (2.4K MILES LATER) THE "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" CAME ON. WE ASKED OUR LOCAL DEALER TO CHECK THE TRUCK OUT TO SEE WHAT OTHER ISSUES IT MAY HAVE. THE CODE WAS FOR THE CAM POSITIONING SENSOR (COVERED BY THE WARRANTY) AND THE DEALER FOUND OTHER ITEMS INCLUDING: NEEDING NEW BRAKES ALL AROUND, 4X DRIVETRAIN SERVICE, INJECTOR FLUSH, AIR, FUEL AND OIL FILTERS THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR. THE MAIN ISSUE: THE FRONT END WITH A BAD STEERING BOX, TIE ROD ENDS AND UPPER/LOWER BALL JOINTS NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE CHRYSLER REP SAID IT IS AN PRE-EXISTING CONDITION AND WON'T COVER THE PARTS/LABOR. BOTH THE WARRANTY ISSUING DEALERSHIP AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOT HAVE SOLD THE TRUCK IN THAT CONDITION. ARE THESE COVERED UNDER A RECALL?

POWER TRAIN, SEAT BELTS, STEERING, SUSPENSION
WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY, WHEN I'M AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE TRUCK SHAKES AND BOUNCES UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL I SLOW TO AROUND 50 MPH. I HAVE HAD BALL JOINTS, TIE RODS, SHOCKS AND STEERING STABILIZER REPLACED, PLUS NEW TIRES AND MULTIPLE ALIGNMENTS PERFORMED. MY MASTER MECHANIC SAID NON OF THIS WILL REMEDY THE ISSUE. THE Y TYPE STEERING SETUP IS THE PROBLEM, THE DEALER TOLD ME IT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED TO THE 09 STEERING BUT IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL. YET YOU CAN NO LONGER EVEN BUY THE Y STEERING FROM THE DEALER THE WILL ONLY SELL YOU THE 09 T STYLE. HOW IS THIS OK? I DO NOT HAVE $265.00 TO PAY FOR JUST THE PARTS NEVER MIND LABOR, BECAUSE THE P.O.S. TRANSMISSION NEEDED REPLACE "$7500.00" LIKE EVERY OTHER 47RE IN THE WORLD. ALSO 3 OUT OF MY 6 SEAT BELTS NO LONGER RETRACT OR THEY GET STUCK HALFWAY OUT AND IT TAKES 10 MINUTES TO GET IT TO WORK. I WOULD LIKE TO AT LEAST HAVE THE STEERING AND SEAT BELTS ADDRESSED ASAP. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
