STEERING, SUSPENSION
AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE TRUCK WILL INTERMITTENTLY JERK VIOLENTLY UNTIL SPEED IS REDUCED. THIS IS SO COMMON THE INTERNET IS REFERRED TO IT AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". IT CAN DO IT MULTIPLE TIMES IN ONE TRIP AND THEN NOT AGAIN FOR SERVERAL OTHERS. THANKFULLY I WAS DRIVING AND NOT MY WIFE. THE VIBRATION IS SO VIOLENT NOT MANY COULD CONTROL IT SAFELY.

STEERING
WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN A MOUNTAIN, THE TIE ROD SEPARATED FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. I WAS TRAVELLING 35 MPH DOWN A WINDY ROAD. THE BALL BEARING THAT HOLDS THEM TOGETHER FAILED. AS I UNDERSTAND, THIS WAS THE SUBJECT OF NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 13V-528. HOWEVER, THIS ONLY COVERS THE RIGHT LEFT SIDE OF HE VEHICLE. ITS RIDICULOUS THAT IT DOES NOT COVER THE OTHER SIDE, AS THE SAME FAILURE HAPPENED. MY TRUCK HAS 136,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A DANGER AND MUST BE ADDRESSED BY DODGE. I WILL BE ABLE TO UPLOAD A PHOTO TOMORROW OF THE DAMAGE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY VEHICLE STARTED ACTING UP A FEW TIMES WHEN I WOULD GO TO START THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER AND THEN STALL OUT. I THOUGHT IT WAS STRANGE, BUT CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT. WHILE DRIVING DOWN AN ICE AND SNOW PACKED ROAD IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC MY VEHICLE STALLED OUT; LOST ALL POWER STEERING, BRAKES LOCKED UP, LIGHTS SHUT OFF, AND I ALMOST ENDED UP REAR-ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME GOING 45 MPH. I PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED AGAIN. SINCE THEN I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THE WIN MODULE NEEDED REPLACED ALONG WITH THE KEY FOB ($725) THAT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION I SEE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. I CALLED CHRYSLER HEADQUARTERS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND NEEDS A RECALL! IT HAS DONE IT SEVERAL MORE TIMES WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO IT BEING MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. I'VE HAD THE TRUCK LESS THAN A YEAR.

WHEELS
I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP TRUCK LAST SUNDAY (2/5/17) ON A SMOOTH OPEN ROAD SURFACE, WHEN SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING, THE BACK TWO TIRES SEIZED UP WHILE GOING 55MPH. I NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH BOUNCED AND SKIDDED AND THEN CAME TO AN ABRUPT HALT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE I'D BEEN DRIVING IN. FORTUNATELY, NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE AROUND AND NO ONE WAS INJURED. IN 2013, DODGE ISSUED A SAFETY RECALL FOR THE 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP TRUCK AFTER AN NHTSA INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT THE PINION NUT CAN LOOSEN, CAUSING THE REAR AXLE TO SEIZE AND THE DRIVE SHAFT TO DETACH. THIS IS EXACTLY THE SITUATION I SUFFERED OVER THE WEEKEND, HOWEVER DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE TELLS ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, AND THEY'RE REFUSING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE REPAIR. I ASKED SEVERAL TIMES FOR AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY MY VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL, AND NO ONE WAS ABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH AN ANSWER EXCEPT TO SAY THAT THE DAMAGE TO MY TRUCK WAS COMPLETELY "UNRELATED" TO THE RECALL. OUR FAMILY IS NOW DOWN TO ONE VEHICLE, MY HUSBAND HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO GO TO WORK THIS WEEK FOR LACK OF TRANSPORTATION, AND THE REPAIRS WILL COST IN EXCESS OF $3,000, WHICH I CAN'T AFFORD.
