UNKNOWN OR OTHER
STARTED HEARING A TICKING SOUND FROM MY TRUCK WHEN STARTING IT UP, BUT MOSTLY IN THE MORNING.TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC SHOP AND WAS TOLD I HAD A MANIFOLD LEAK. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE LEAK WAS DUE TO FOUR OF THE MANIFLOLD BOLTS HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF THE MANIFOLD FOR NO REASON AT ALL. UPON DOING FUTHER RESEARCH I'VE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF OTHER DODGES.

SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING, SUSPENSION
EVER SINCE WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK USED FROM DODGE DEALER IN TUCSON ARIZONA WE HAVE HAD CONCERNS WITH SUSPENSION AND STEERING OF THE TRUCK. WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK STEERING IS BOUNCY AND UNSTABLE. WE THOUGHT IT WAS ALIGNMENT SO WE TOOK IT IN AND TRUCK CONTINUES THE SAME. WHEN PULLING OUT 34' 5TH WHEEL STEERING IS VERY SHAKY AND VIBRATES A LOT. AFTER YEARS OF BRINGING UP CONCERN WITH DODGE DEALER WE TOOK TO ANOTHER SHOP WHERE THEY GAVE US A HUGE LIST OF THINGS NEEDING TOO GET FIXED. WE WENT BACK TO DODGE DEALER WHERE THEY GAVE US A 2ND OPINION AND CAME UP WITH ADDITIONAL CONCERNS WITH TRUCK. WE HAVE CHANGED SHOCKS, STRUTS, BE ALL JOINTS AND OTHER THINGS WITH THE SUSPENSION AND TRUCK CONTINUES TO RUN THE SAME WAY. BUT RECENTLY WE GOT BRAKES, DRUMS, AND MASTER CYLINDER SINCE WE RAN OUT OF BRAKES WHILE PULLING OUT 34' 5TH WHEEL. ALL THIS THINGS WERE RECOMMENDED SO THAT THE TRUCK WOULD RUN WELL. WE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND ISSUE IS STILL UNRESOLVED. WE WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO HELP US SINCE ALL THE RECOMMENDED REPAIRS HAVE BEEN DONE AND STILL HAVING SAME PROBLEM. WE TRAVEL QUITE A BIT WITH OUR ANIMALS AND WOULD HATE TO HAVE A DEADLY ACCIDENT DUE TO TRUCK PROBLEMS. PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST STEP TO REPAIRING OUR TRUCK TO SAFE CONDITIONS. STEERING SHAKY AND BRAKES FAILURE EVEN AFTER ALL RECOMMENDED REPAIRS. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION, WHEELS
IT FIRST STARTED AS SEVERE SHAKING WHENEVER I HIT A BUMP, ESPECIALLY ON AN CURVE. THE TRUCK WOULD HOP AND SHAKE AND BECOME UNCONTROLLABLE UNTIL I SLOWED. THIS STILL HAPPENS BUT NOW I ALSO GET AN UNCONTROLLABLE WOBBLE WHENEVER I DRIVE AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND THERE IS ANY KIND OF INCLINE OR BEND IN THE ROAD. ONLY FIX IS TO SLOW DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY.. IT'S DANGEROUS! I'VE BECOME TRAINED TO DEAL WITH IT BUT IT'S CERTAINLY UNSAFE AND I ALWAYS WORRY THAT IT WILL HAPPEN ON A SLICK ROAD AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO HOLD IT ON THE ROAD. I'VE REPLACED TIRES, ALIGNED, BALANCED, ROAD FORCE BALANCED AND NOTHING FIXES IT!

POWER TRAIN
MY TRUCK HAS THE P77NHTSA 14V-796 RECALL NOTICE (REAR AXLE PINION NUT). I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHEN I RECEIVED THE 1ST NOTICE (NEARLY 2 YEARS AGO) AND WAS TOLD THE PART REQUIRED WAS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE BUT I WOULD BE PUT ON A WAITING LIST AND BE CONTACTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER AGAIN EACH TIME I HAVE RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE FOR THIS SAME RECALL AND EACH TIME I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE SAME RESPONSE THAT THE PART IS STILL UNAVAILABLE. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW A POTENTIALLY DEADLY ISSUE SUCH AS THIS REAR AXLE PINION NUT FAILING CANNOT BE ADDRESSED IN 2 YEARS TIME. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS CHRYSLER'S LACK OF CONCERN OR MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD AGAIN THIS MORNING THAT THE PART WOULD BE ORDERED SPECIFICALLY FOR ME BUT THAT IT WAS STILL NATIONALLY UNAVAILABLE. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE IF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO ME OR MY FAMILY OCCURS DUE TO THIS LACK OF RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER? ANY HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
